The little man hit another milestone today. I am incredibly grateful that he is still alive and healthy. He continues to grow and develop. And fuss. He has transitioned from newborn diapers to size one. He is also wearing some 0-3 sized clothes now. At Piggly Wiggly they have some baby clothes with their logo, but just size 12.

I woke up early this morning but didn’t have the energy to go out for sunrise. I went back to sleep and everybody stayed in bed until about 7:30. It was a pretty lazy morning just spent hanging around the cottage. At about eleven we went for a 2.25 mile walk on the goat trail. It was fairly warm and sunny although the shady canopy covering the trail helped keep things fairly comfortable. After we returned to the cottage and Liz and Luke got situated I drove down to Trenton, Georgia. I just took the interstate to be quick. There is a building supply place there with good deals on siding. I had been before and their inventory is a bit hit or miss, so I wanted to check on things before making the drive with my trailer. Fortunately they had the product I wanted and a sufficient amount. They were selling the pieces for $6.99 each, but I asked how much of a discount they would give for buying 200, and they said $5.99 each. So that was a nice treat. Less of a treat will be driving them back over Monteagle mountain to the farm. It might take two trips. I think I’ll drive down on Tuesday. I took the scenic route back to Monteagle and stopped for a late lunch in South Pittsburgh at a little burger joint I had been to before. I had a cheeseburger, fries, and a soft-serve ice cream cone.

We continued relaxing the rest of the afternoon. Unfortunately Luke didn’t want to nap. Around seven we returned to the Mountain Goat Trail and hiked another 3.25 miles. It was really pretty and tranquil out. The walk was a little much for Liz though. She got really worn out. We agreed that tomorrow we will try to take more, shorter walks. After a quick shower I again picked us up dinner at the Mountain Goat Market.
