A Veterinarian in the Making?

Sydney is a animal lover - all animals! Big or small it doesn't matter to her. In fact we are often surprised at how comfortable she is around BIG dogs, like the Smith's German Sheperd, Samson, the Palmer's golden retriever Zoey and Aunt Penny's newfinland Emma..... she loves them all. She recently got out her doctor's kit to examine our dog Bebo. Maybe she'll follow in her Aunt Penny's footsteps.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT PENNY

While in Columbus for New Years, we went to Build A Bear with Grandma Linda and built a Build-a-bear for Aunt Penny. Grandma Linda picked out the bear, all 5 kids got to have a heart put inside, Macy stuffed the bear, Sydney bathed and brushed the bear and Sami got the bear dressed. Garrett named the bear and used the computer to put all the info in for the birth certificate. Dylan had stayed home with Gramps with a tummy ache, but when we brought the bear home he made sure to give a great big bear hug, full of love, to send to his Aunt Penny.

We hope you have a great birthday Penny, and that you love your bear, Dr. Teddy.

No More Diapers

We are very excited to tell you that our baby girl is a BIG GIRL NOW! (well a little sad, but mostly EXCITED) She has been going on the big potty for a while now and officially is in her big girl "unerwears" having no accidents. So for the first time in 6 years we are diaper free :)
