It’s dusty in here.
I’m going through my old photos…

Afternoon naptime!




Next up? Botox.
A follow up to my constant jaw pain consult — now I’m scheduled for a botox shot in my jaw!

Morning playtime!




A day of dogs.




Teen boys at dinner
Owen wanted to go to Portillos with his friends. We sat across the room from them but close enough we could keep an eye on them. This is what they looked like the whole time.

They now eat at the same time!
It took awhile because Ivy was a SUPER slow eater but now she’sright up there with Olive! They both go running when the food drops.

Katie’s rescheduled holiday party


And her desk looks just like her room!

I feel pretty today.
I needed to not feel (or look) like I have a FOURTEEN YEAR OLD kid.


Sun pups!


Happy 14th!
Wow—14 years. My how the time has flown! It was about this time we were headed to the hospital after my water broke at 3am—but I took the time for a shower, throw the bedding in the wash, and grab something to eat! Twelve hours later we welcomed Owen!

Dry January is over!
I did it! A whole month with no alcohol! So as a reward, I got my own personal pitcher of Holy Water while celebrating Owen’s birthday a day early with friends!

It’s a good thing I decided to look behind me
…before I moved my office chair.

Completely wild ass second guess.

They’re so cute when they’re sleeping.



When it’s cold and snowy…

They’re enjoying the heating pad under the blanket.

Yes, they’re spoiled.
Tom shoveled this area for the dogs…but you can see that Ivy doesn’t really mind the snow.

We do have bigger beds.

Rest, play, rest, lay!




They are goofy.
A typical morning with the puppies
Then they found a pair of cheap play sunglasses to play with.


Then they chewed up a pencil Katie left out.

And they wanted to be let out every 10-15 minutes — which necessitated me needing to get up from under blankets on the couch — only to have them change their minds OR go out but not DO anything.
Oh the energy in the morning…
Bundled up for the vet!


Could she BE any cuter?





The new toy is a hit!


Cute as a bug.

If your Monday didn’t start by…
… having to clean vomited dog shit out of carpet, you’re ahead of me. And now look at how cute they are.
