Happy Daze

Some days are just more special than others. One of those days is when you see your grandkids making a profession of faith. How special is that to be a part of that day.....and to see your son in law being the one to lead your grandson into the waters of baptism and profession of his faith :)

This is my son in law, Jason

This is my grandson, Cameron

Man do they look a lot a like. I remember when I was at the hospital when Cameron was born and the doctor looked at the baby newly born and said....can't deny who the father of this boy is :) Not only do these two alike they act alike....so sweet to see :)

Cameron the show off :) He is so funny to watch his personality coming thru....this boy doesn't have the shyness of his grandmother at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Time flying by

Where has the week gone and where have I been in the process of it flying? I can't believe it is a week since I have added anything to this blogo of mine....if I look back on the week it doesn't seem like I have done that much to not remember anything significant...but then???? Hum...maybe old-timers is setting in much quicker than I would like it too....

Here is the litter of red puppies that I had two weeks ago. The family who has the mom came to visit with her kids and they had lined up the puppies out of the pen on the floor so I thot would be a good thing to take their picture with them lined up like little soldiers :) Liking the coats I am seeing on these guys

Lucy decided to put a flower pot in her mouth and run around the house...all the pictures I took of her face turned out blurry (cuz she wouldn't stay still) so I have to settle for this one with seeing her from the side....what a funny puppy :)

This little guy is now named Charlie. He is the product of mixing cockapoos that are first gens together...sometimes you get this more cockery look and the people who are getting him are so excited to meet him and love his look. He is a sweet dog that is for sure....one of the girls who came over was holding him and I got this picture of him :) so cute!!

cookie stop :)

Went on a 11 mile bike ride today...stopping at the local grocery store we bought sandwiches to eat on the trail....included in the deal was a rather large cookie with each sandwich...the girls were tired so we pulled over and halved the cookie between them...

Torrey's face is filled with cookie here...

and Emma's is filled here.....

apparently if there is a big cookie to eat then you must try and stuff as much of it in your mouth at once and then try and chew.........

and just a fun picture of torrey with her canned smile :)

UFO's????

what do they call those things in the fields where the aliens come down and make big circles in the farm lands? hum.....i found these in my carpet...wonder if the aliens came and did them??? :)

they are everywhere on the carpet....

oh never mind...here is the culprit....my spotbot made them :) I love this thing for cleaning up quick spills or pee spots that my lovelies sometimes want to leave on the carpet...the pups had gotten into my room and left me a few spots so out came the spotbot ;)

pups

The pups are seven weeks old now...most have gotten picked up except for these three..two are sold and one is still for sale....they had fun exploring the table while i got pictures of them :)

poor baby...I woke them up from a nap to get pics that I had promised some new parents and he just wanted to keep on sleeping thru it all...

this is my granddaughter's favorite puppy...she is the one that always gets picked up first when she comes over...love her BIG eyes..just like her mama

Katie my new mom

Katie is a good mom....this will be her last litter...or should i say only litter as the people who have her don't want to go thru this again......they miss her terribly while she is with me raising her babies and don't want her to leave again............ :)

love the positions they get into to nurse..this guy was kicking his feet while he was laying on his back getting a bit of nourishment from his mommy

two sacked out right by mom but not knowing she was in there providing a meal for the others :)

Score

Sometimes in everyday talk with someone they remember what you say and come back a couple of weeks later with something you talked about but you didn't remember saying anything to them :) Such is the case of this spaghetti squash. Apparently I said something about liking it and viola...they showed up with two plants for me to plant in my garden...(that I have to make :)

Cement leaves :)

One of the perks of having puppies and finding good homes for them is that sometimes along the way people bring you "gifts". A nice family from Canada came and got their puppy and brought along these cement leaves....she had a name for them and darn if I can remember what it was. They haven't found their final resting place yet but wanted to get a picture of them for my pic of the day....

details of one up close

Paulette...if you read this let me know the name of the technique that you told me for these :)
