Believe it or not the end of Summer is right around the corner. For many of you August may be the last month before your kiddos head back to school and life returns to ... normal. For me August means the return of my DH who has been serving overseas for the past 7 months. Let's just say that I have been looking forward to this month for a very, very, very long time now!

I hope everyone has been able to beat the heat this summer! Cooler weather is still a few months away, so take it easy. No need to go out and get a nasty sunburn on your face so you can be just like me



This may be old news by now, but take a look at the format of the boards here at SheKnows these days. Do you notice anything different? As of the end of June the Pregnancy & Due Date boards are all under one heading once more and the same goes for the Parenting and Born in boards. Hopefully it has made finding boards suitable to you that much easier to navigate!

I would also like to take the time to thank and congratulate all of our new Hosts! Things couldn't be done without you and you all rock!

What has been your favorite memory from this Summer so far?

Hi I'm Nellie Mom to 3 wonderful kids! I have been a part of SK since I was preggo with DD #2 in 2004, I visit here nearly everyday and I'm thankful for all the wonderful friendships I have gained from here, you ladies! The most amazing, wonderful, hardest, oddest, funnest, sweetest, different and most stressful parenting challenge I have had is having a special needs child I had no idea what it was like to have an autistic child until I lived it, to all the ladies for all there support threw the worry of something being wrong, to the diagnosis, threw all the therapy of the past 4 years and continuing, and now the homeschooling of my beautiful, amazing, and very smart little girl! When I was a kid I always wanted to be a Mom now I'm glad I get to share my Mommyhood adventures with y'all!

August seems pretty dull on the outside ... there are no major holidays to speak of. However, did you know that the second week of August is National Smile Week?
