Maisy Maisy Maisy!

Hello Family and Friends!

We have a new family member.  Well two actually.  We got a female bird, Cleopatra.

Our last female canary Juliet had many disformaties and we felt blessed to have her for a year.  She passed away last week.  Cleopatra and Romeo seem to be getting a long great!

We also got a choc/black lab pup.  She is three months old and we have named her Maisy.  Here are some photos of her!

She is such a great pup!  Puppy pad trained.  Does have accidents in the house but is learning to tell us when she needs to go. She loves everybody she meets and listens really well. We got lucky with her. Her previous owner had her for four days before they found out they couldn't keep her.  So we got her and she is a great addition to our family!

Last Tuesday was Boo's 5th birthday!  So being the "mother" I am, I googled some birthday cake recipes for dogs.  Found a peanut butter one with pureed cottage cheese and peanut butter frosting.  It was a HUGE hit with Boo, Maisy and their friend Luke!

Here is a short video of them enjoying the cake!

Here are some other photos I have also taken. :)

We've also had our first batch of dove eggs where both eggs have hatched!

19 week Pregnancy appointment.

Hello Friends and Family!

Our 19week pregnancy appointment went pretty well!  Baby's heart beat is in the 130's so it's going up a little bit.  My OB will be inducing me since my body seems to fly through labor.  Can't say I'm complaining about this!  Fast labor, I'm good with that! ;)

Yesterday we met Mimi and Papa Gaffney in Kelso to hang out at Chuck E Cheese.  The kids had a BLAST!  Lilly is staying with them for a week.  She asked if she could so we called and asked too.  Besides this mom gets some what of a break from 20million questions from a curious three year old!

Here are some photos and videos from our very busy day yesterday!

Baby #3 Ultrasoud Visit!

Today at 10:30am we had our ultrasound for our third baby!  First let me tell you I cheated and I peed right before the appointment.  But my gosh I had to GO!  But I got the best Ultrasound tech!  She was amazing!  Not only did she said you don't need a full bladder, but she printed out a ton of photos!  Such a great appointment!

Here I am, at 18weeks!

My shirt says "Good things come in large Bellies!" Why yes they do! :)

I've been able to feel baby kick everyonce in awhile.  They are still small kicks, but soon, they will be ones that will make me jump, I'm sure!

The ultrasound tech was so nice and said we have a healthy beautiful baby!!  Baby did great with the ultrasound, only was semi-stubborn when she was trying to get some good shots of it's little feet!  They have to see the gender, it's a protocal, but I was able to look away and besides that, I never saw what we are actually  having. So yes that means ya'll have to wait until this one is born to know as well! ;)

Well here are the ultrasound photos!
