My Birthday Present

This is Annabelle - a yorkie that Dave got me for my birthday.  She is precious!  10 weeks old.  2.5 pounds.  She is so sweet!Bandit is quite taken with her too.Her ears are taped up so they will not fall.  You keep the tape on for 5 days at a time per the seller.  Our vet is not so certain - he believes they will stand up or not?  Bandit immediately took her new toys.What a face!They love to play and Bandit is very gentle with her.  She is a tough little girl, always comes back for more.She is the best - does not make a sound when we put her in her kennel.I had to get this sailor sun dress for her.  I also bought her a T - shirt and a pink rain coat.  Dave thinks I am nuts.The vet said she will weigh 6 to 8 pounds.  We love her!!

A Great Week

We went for a walk in the neighborhood -The kids played with some of their favorite toys in the front yard.Then headed to the pool - Meighan is swiming without her floaties - and with a little help diving to the bottom to gather the play rings.  She is doing great -  loves the water.  Alex is doing great too, he nows jumps in and goes under the water!  He must have jumped in the pool a 100 times today, one immediately after the other.Alex in the garden.With all his favorite guys.Meg has dressed herself everyday - I bought her several dresses recently - she put on this Christmas dress that was hanging on her rack.  She also found this butterfly set in the closet.We headed over to Pocohontas Park for some water fun - and it was fun!!Back home, Dave and the kids spotted this butterfly while I was cooking dinner. We had spaghetti and meatballs, except for
Alex, he wanted a corn dog.These guys ended up outside on the patio.We headed outside after dinner - what a nice evening.  It was cool with a great breeze.Upside down Alex.Upside down Meighan.Upside down Woody. 

 After enjoying some time by our pond we headed to Bruster's for a ice cream treat.  Dave had coffee ice cream, Alex had chocolate, Meg had raspberry swirl and I had coconut pineapple.  I love trying different flavors and mine was the best!
