The Goings On

Sam's been sick with a stomach bug that won't quit. He first got sick Sunday night, was fine on Monday, sick all Tuesday night, more quiet than usual on Wednesday, fine all day Thursday, and sick again Thursday night. He missed pre-school on Wednesday, so we told him he could go on Friday. We decided to keep him home though, so when he woke up this morning he asked, "Why I'm not at school?"
"You threw up last night, so Daddy and I decided not to send you to school."
He looked really annoyed and started to run to the kitchen, "Mom! Now I have to do lots of homework. I have to glue some papers and color and draw a dog house for the new puppy and..."

That's right. Did I mention we're getting a puppy?
Ours is the darkest curliest one on top. Sometimes I worry that we are going to really regret it, but I'm excited and she is so cute.
She is a golden-doodle. Her mom and dad are both golden retriever/poodle mixes.
We can bring her home around November 23.

I have some pictures and things that I've meant to put on here, but never got around to. The last 6 months have flown by so fast. We've been pretty busy.

In April we went to the zoo with Lindsey.

I was really proud of these Easter Eggs we dyed.
I took this video of Sam in February. I call it "Dramatic Interpretation of the the Life and Death of a Snowman" or "Once There Was A Snowman".

Sounds like fun times are happening at your house (I say that both sincerely and sarcastically at the same time.)

Yeah for your puppy! We sure do miss ours. I have not however had to potty train a dog so that part may not be too fun. Good luck!

Oh, the poor snow man! :( I'm sure Sam will have a great time with your new puppy! We had so much fun seeing you guys last week! I love your house.

So are you in your new house yet? I want pictures!!!

You are so brave to get a puppy. Nick would love it if I wanted to get one- and so would Adam.

Sam is such a cutie!
