The past month

We closed on our house on April 2nd. We are living with Aj's parents on the river. It is very nice being super close to work! So far we have the 1st layer of gravel down on our new driveway. We also have a mailbox! Everything takes so much time at the beginning!


Roy quickly became in love with Charlie and Rascal's beds (Aj's parents two dogs)

Abby found her spot right away as well:)

The Rogers came over for a boat ride! Here's Katie and Avery!

Avery loved driving the boat with AJ!

Christy and Avery hanging out!

Jani came over to play the Wii :)

We went over to Paulis to eat my most favorite meal- Corned Beef Casserole! Wil had a blast in this box!

Abby Amazes Me

One night at the beginning of this week AJ's dad told me Abby was on the deck playing with one of their dogs small beanie toys. He looked away, then looked back to see her swallow it! That night she woke me up I swear every hour. I was too tired to realize she probably wasn't feeling good because she ate a toy! The next day she threw it up in her kennel and continued to be sick all throughout the day until that evening!

Thursday night we were all on the deck hanging out. There was a big stuffed animal (the stuffing was out so it was like a dead rodent) that the dogs liked to play tug of war with. All of a sudden we heard Abby take a big gulp and lay funny. I looked all over frantically for the stuffed animal. It was gone. Abby swallowed it whole! This was like the size of a big wash rag! I panicked and called the vet. The on-call vet first was laughing. She said sorry I know it's not funny, but cute. Hmm not cute!! Anyways, we ended up inducing vomiting by using 3 or 4 spoonfuls of salt washed down by hydrogen peroxide. Yummy! It worked and all was happy.

No soft toys for Abby every again!

Yummy!

I was never a big cereal fan. If I happened to eat cereal it would usually be plain without milk.
A teacher at school was eating a new kind. I decided to try it - even with milk. I fell in love.
Chocolate Cheerios:) aka super delicious
