Test...Pictures?

Ok, so this is a pic from a playdate we had with Lexi and Zack and Kiley a few weeks ago. They were sliding down into a pile of pillows. I'm still trying to figure out where the other pics went from this play date. I downloaded 4 and this one is the only one I can find so more to come this week maybe?

Weekly Update

Ok so I might not get photos posted, but at least I can get a weekly update in. The house is still on the market, but I think sometime in September we might move back so we can get Riley settled with her new pre-school routine and back in her own bed. I know it's not the best for selling the house to have a crib in the master bedroom, but we decided it's going to work better from home.

Riley is pretty much potty trained now, occasional accidents and we haven't tackled bedtime yet, but she is trained during the day...so as soon as we find a new house a new puppy will follow:)

Doodle, is "talking" a lot now. Josh is sure he says Da-Da and Hi...mostly he just babbles a LOT! Still no teeth or no crawling, but I am very sure they are close. He's drooling a ton and he doesn't get mad on his tummy as much, he actually tried to get to stuff.

Josh likes his new job and LOVE his hours. He's home a lot earlier now. Much less stress in his department as a whole. Still wants to work his butt off and his workaholic tendencies still have him going in too early for me, but I can't change that:) But at least he doesn't HAVE to be in as early as he did before.

We are squeezing in as many playdates as we can before Riley starts school in a few weeks. We have her preschool screening this week! Ugh, our little girl is all grown up!

That's us in a nutshell. When we get back to the house, I will have more access to my computer (sorta...we have to hook up to Wi-Fi first, maybe a new computer,) and THEN I'll be back to posting with pics and more regular posts!

Pray that our house sells before then and I'll be a perfectly happy camper!

Sorry, best pic I can find of him recently...

Dang, It Goes So Fast!

Today is Doodle's half birthday! (Meg, got any pictures to post of the Doodle Man for me?) He had his 6 month appointment on Monday and he is 16.14 lbs. and 27.5 inches with an 18in. noggin...He's about 40% in weight and 50% height (well, he measures 95% in height, but his doc said he was well proportioned and he thinks the height measurement was off.) He is also sitting up unsupported now and trying to get the crawling thing down...no success yet, but it's only a matter of time before my little guy is mobile!

On a big sister note, she has been in and out of the doctors herself this week. We took her to the ER on Tuesday night with a (literally) screaming headache and a fever. Those are both gone now, but she has a sore throat with spots on her tonsils. Took her into minute clinic for a strep test this morning where she puked in the lobby...fun times! But no strep and no menegitis...just a viral bug. She feels better already.

Thank Yous Around!

First, thanks Meg for hacking and getting some photos on the blog. Now I don't feel like a slacker:) Second, for those of my donors to the AHS walk every year, I just got this sent to me in an e-mail and I thought you should know your money makes a difference!

Last year, we (The Animal Humane Society)took in 5% fewer animals and increased our rate of placement by 5%, which resulted in a 7% reduction in the rate of euthanasia. There are still too many animals without homes in our community, but to make progress feels good and I hope it is rewarding for you to be a part of it.

THANK YOU! It makes me proud to be part of such a positive step! The more we do for the animals, the less animals have to suffer and that, as my niece Adie lies to say "Makes me Happy!"

More Hacked in photos:)




As you can see, I never gave up blog access for Mo's blog after Rowan was born;) I'm posting more pics for Mo... You will see more of these on my blog later this week, but I'll let Mo debut them on her page. Pics from our playdate with Noah and Finn this afternoon.
