We don’t know yet! We have a new addition to our family, but he doesn’t have a name yet! It’s hard for a family of 6 to all agree on the same name for a new puppy… As you probably know, our beloved almost 12-year-old dog passed away a week before Christmas. If you know […]
Wow – that last post was such a downer that I decided to write a little follow-up – I’m feeling better! I took forever in the shower, and my son is still napping! And the two girls have been playing together… funny how the house calms down when a certain little Kindergartner is at school.

What sets him off? Everything under the sun and even the sun itself. I’m talking about our lovely scarlet macaw parrot. I would not recommend these things as pets for ANYONE – it’s true when they say that wild animals cannot be tamed! Why we have our bird is a long story, and it’s not

I’ve said many times how many pets we’ve had in this house, but I haven’t really posted any pictures of them. Here is a small sampling of the many different pets that have lived here. I am missing pictures of the guinea pigs, hamsters, bird, turtles, frogs and hedgehog. If I find any I will
