Maybe I will get a new camera for Mother's Day?????

Happy Birthday Nanuk!

A year ago today we drove to Tennessee to pick up Nanuk

(our giant malamute)

& completely surprised the kids with a puppy

It was awesome!!!

Such a great moment!

We reserved her just before we found out we were pregnant...

Would I do it again (pregnant & puppy)?

NO WAY!!!!

I was 2 1/2 months pregnant & threw up the whole way there...

(7 hours!)

& she threw up the entire way home!!!

We were quite a pair from the beginning!!!

She drives me nuts, but I do love her!!!

Who would get a giant anything anyway (Honey?)???

She currently weighs 113lbs

(at least she does not poop in the house anymore, as of recently!)

Going through old photos... Some oldies but goodies!!!!

Oh The Bubba!

Baseball & Being A Helpful Big Sis

Iz is such a good helper!

The Ergo Baby Carrier

Tonight Rob taught the kids how to play baseball!

Mama even played for a little bit!
