Summer so far...

Has been pretty boring..Cameron is gone and I have been working lots of overtime covering for my co-workers vacations. I am having some serious Cameron withdrawls and cant wait until he comes home! Zeland misses him too! CAMERON COME HOME!!!!

Oh and we still have freaking bed bugs. For sure still in Cameron's room and possibly still in the living room. My brother found one on his shoulder in the middle of the night last week. We called the exterminator and they charge 95 bucks to come out and since the chemical that they are using doesn't kill the eggs they would at least need to come out 3 more times! So that is 300 dollars on top of the $1,200 that we have already paid them. Screw that! It seems like for the last how ever many months we have had these damn bugs all I have done is read and research about them so we have decided to tackle them ourselves. I was able to order the products that our exterminator was using in addition to a product that kills the eggs. So this weekend Andrew and I are going to treat the house ourselves. Basically starting from square one again and packing up all our stuff for the next 4 weeks at least. Zeland will go stay in Cottonwood for the weekend since its probably not a good idea to have him around all the chemicals. I am beyond frustrated with this whole thing. If I didn't think we would bring them with us I would seriously move.

On the brighter side of life...Grandma Nancy came down to visit not letting the bed bugs ruin her chance to see Z and enjoy the nice weather we had here in phoenix last weekend. I of course had to work but Nancy and Andrew were able to hang out. They attempted to take Z to the pool and he refused to even go into the pool area. Not sure what that was about but on my days off next week I am going to try and take him again. I really don't want him to be afraid of the pool. They were also able to go to the Wild Life Park. I heard that Zeland loved seeing all the animals. I am assuming that Nancy took pictures but she hasn't sent me any yet. As soon as I get them I will post a few.

Eeeeek, more bugs, yuck! Good luck!

Sounds like Granny Nancy had a really fun time with you folks last weekend! I know she is looking forward to joining the AZ Wadeys in San Diego.

Nice job on the blog site renovation!

Boy, did I take pictures at the Wild Life Park. I have been busy and haven't been able to email any yet. I just tried to get a few ready now and goofed up. So it will probably have to wait until this week end when I have more time.
