2 new babies

well we did it. we've been debating rather we should give into aliya or not. she's been begging us for a dog since she could talk. so when she recently had her birthday the discussion came up again. well we thought we would wait a bit. well friday night we came home to a message about a puupy that we wanted to see. so yesterday morning we went to go visit the new puppies. well our intentions were maybe one and we left with TWO. the kids fell in love with them right away. of course it didn't help matters that craig and i thought they were darling also. we couldn't decide which one we wanted to bring home so we came back and asked if we could have them both. now that we have them we're glad to have both of them. they've been playing really well together and we hope this will help keep them from not getting bored.



well it took most of the day to decide on a name for the two of them. it was definately a battle. those of you that know aliya named her pink poodle from build a bear, "taco" know what i'm talking about. she wanted to pass this name onto one of these cute little girls. i think she even mentioned burrito. with 5 of us tossing around names these 2 little girls are lucky to have names. so the final decision came down to "tinkerbell" and "jojo". the little black one is jojo and the other one is tink for short.





kelsey and aliya have had so much fun being the "mommy" and aliya doesn't want to put them down. she thinks they always need to be held. hopefully she'll get tired of that real quick. they're so tiny we have to be careful.




it was actually half way decent last night so we supervised them while they played on the lawn. we have a swimming pool and they could fit right thru the gate so until they are trained they have supervised visits to the backyard.




















they are so much fun to watch play. they love to jump all over each other and wrestle. we had to explain to aliya that they weren't hurting each
other and that they were just playing. well it will take some time until they are trained and use to the house, but everyone is enjoying them.



on another note kameron left for football camp today. as a mom i'm already missing him and hope that he's okay especially since today was his birthday and because moms are good at worrying right?! he'll be home on friday just in time to do his laundry and pack for scout camp and leave at 5 am monday morning. i told him that i don't know what i'm gonna do without him. his response was that i would have to take out the garbage myself. ha ha what a sense of humor he has. well we'll miss him while he's gone.

not much else is going on around here. just relaxing and watching a few movies. since we're headed into a busy week. the autism awareness is this week at devine memories so if you haven't checked out the classes hurry on over there and do so. also i think there are still a few spots left for the crops. i'm definately hanging out for the crop on friday night. good food from the cheesecake factory, friends, laughter, and the best reason: it's for a great cause. so come join in on the fun and help out a good cause!!!
