Just a little update

So, it's been awhile and I keep promising Sue that I'll do better about keeping up with this. Sorry, Sue! There is so much going on in our lives right now. But here are a few things worth noting.

* Dustin has only three weeks left of residency!

*We close on our new house in Branson on Tuesday morning.

*Our current house is still on the market.


*Baby Rufus will be 32 weeks on Monday. He is about 4 pounds and 15 inches long.


*We got our diaper bag the other day. I love it and can't wait to start using it!

We're back!

So it's been forever and a day since this thing has been updated.
Sorry! It's not that we don't have things to talk about. We've actually been pretty busy around here lately. We're planning a move to Branson, Missouri. Dustin's finishing up paperwork and contract stuff related to graduating from residency and starting his new job in August or September. We're starting to think about getting our house ready to put on the market. AND we're planning the arrival of a new little baby in August.

We apparently like to group big events in our life together. Whew!
The next few months are going to seem like a whirlwind!

Diesel's pretty excited about being a big sister. She's already planning on giving as many doggy kisses as we'll let her and sneaking in some sister snuggle time. And she's really looking forward to stealing little bits of food and treats from the little bitty paws/fingers.

Here's a pic of the new little soon-to-be Tripp in case you're interested. It was taken at about 9 weeks old. We're 17 weeks now and should have a new pic soon.

Today is Diesel's birthday

Two years old! Still, just as cute as ever. :)
We went to Three Dog Bakery to get a special birthday treat.


"Mom, Can I please eat my birthday cookie?"


"It looks so good."


"Thanks, that was tasty."


"Can I have another one?"

And he says I'm a messy cook...

We were about to enjoy a nice mexican feast on Cinco de Mayo---deep fried tacos, strawberry mock pina coladas and tres leches cake.
Dustin grabbed the salsa and shook it, not realizing the lid wasn't completely secure.
I turned around to find salsa on the floor, cabinets, counter, refrigerator, walls and all over him.
While he stood there crying in pain from the salsa juices leaking into his eyes, I searched the house for the camera.
This picture had to be taken.

Trottin' on Turkey Day

So this post is kinda late. But here it is anyways.
I participated in my first 5K on Thanksgiving morning.
Dustin's Mom, Grandpa and I woke up early to run.
It was a chilly morning, in the 20's.
We had a good time though. I hope to do it again.

Here we are before the race.
"Do you like my hat?
No, I do not like your hat.
Goodbye!
Goodbye!"

Our view at the beginning.
Over 6000 children, adults and dogs came to run/walk.


The finish line. We made it!!!
