Can we skip August?

August is coming...in 8 short days. I'm dreading it. Here's why:

-Mark leaves for a work trip. He'll be gone during the week. Which means I'll have to figure out how to get myself and Colin ready alone and make it to work by 7 AM.

-Mark's gone for pretty much the entire length of the Iowa State Fair...which means I'm going to miss it.

-Colin turns 9 months old on the 25th. Which means he'll be one in three freakin' months! Where the heck has the time gone?

So if time could just skip right over August, I'd be totally fine with it.
