Pure Sweetness!

So our little Ruby just LOVES animals! Her babysitter Jen has the cutest little doggie named Tucker. When we pull into Jen's driveway in the morning,  Ruby will often start calling out his name before we even get in the door! It sounds more like "Tut-er" but hey, with a name like Tucker it could be worse!

I am so glad Tucker loves her right back, because Ruby is often rejected by our two cats, Ruthie and Marmie...although they are slowly coming around. They are just so busy you know, lying around and sleeping all day to have time to play!

Here are some pictures Jen sent me that are just way too cute not to share!

And my personal favorite....

Perhaps a dog is in our future??


Ok, must finish Christmas wrapping. Luckily my angel in laws ( that is what I am going to start to call them ) took the kids for the night last night so we are just about ready!

Merry Christmas Everyone:)

Written in the Sand!

It has been weeks since my last post...we have been up to our elbows in poop around here. We think that Porter either had a virus or was adjusting to the new probiotics..or maybe a bit of both. It went on for just about two weeks...anyway, I hate to say it in case I jinx it, but I think it's over....

And really, after the events of this past week I checked myself again.

We are here.

Bless the people of Newtown, Connecticut.

And today we had two great moments.

The day started with a semi-solid poop. Woo hoooo!

Then when I went to pick up Porter from school I couldn't find him. Now before you think he was lost..nope, he wasn't lost at all. He was there, sitting at the sand centre, playing with a friend. She said to me " I'm playing with Porter". " Yes, you are" I said as my heart filled with pure love.
