Lover Dog

I can't believe how incredibly lucky we have been with Mia. Almost instantly she has figured out how to use the doggie door, so she goes outside to do her buisness. She is extremely mellow and loves to cuddle. Even with kids!

How Fast They Grow

It is amazing how time flies once you become an adult, especially when you become a parent. Morgan is about 8 months now. He has been sitting up on his own for a while now. He is starting the motions of crawling, but he is not quite there yet. He already has two bottom teeth and three more are coming in on the top. Before I know it he will be running and screaming with Hannah and Ethan.

Blondie

So I was highlighting my hair the other night and ended up with extra dye. My crazy husband decided that he didn't want the dye to go to waste soooooooo, he caked it on his head and left in for about an hour. The end result was platinum. Needless to say he dyed his hair back to the original color before church!

The Snails

Ever Since Hannah could walk and play outside she has had an obsession with snails. We have a ton in our backyard! Last week, while playing outside, Hannah and Ethan found about 20 different snails from under their swing set and put then all over the top of the set. They had a blast watching the snails crawl up sides.

Introducing Mia the Mutt

Last Thursday, while I was putting gas at a station a couple of blocks from our house, this friendly little puppy came up to me. She was obviously a stray and I couldn't just leave her there. So.. I brought her home and we now have a new addition to the family. Her name is Mia and she is a terrier mix, about 3-4 months old. She is a very sociable puppy. She is great with the kids. She has also figured out how to use the doggy door and goes out to handle her business. She is a wonderful addition to our family!!

Cow Girls Don't Cry

The kids spent the weekend at Papa's house a couple of weeks ago while Andrew and I were out of town. It was such a nice day that the kids finally got to play with their pony, FlapJack. They both got to ride him and Hannah led him around my dad's yard. Well, flapJack got excited and bit Hannah on the right shoulder. What's amazing is that Hannah didn't cry at all. She turned around and asked my dad why her horse bit her and if he was wild. She then told him that she would have to tell her family about it. I think it definitely looks worse than it is! Hannah still loves her pony and she still rides him and pets him!
