Dog Days

So, after much debate both public and private, the puppy’s name is officially Pismo.  We named her after the town of Pismo Beach where Dave and I honeymooned.  We absolutely feel in love with Pismo and can’t wait to make a family tradition of heading to the beach each year.  It was nice to give her a name that had some meaning behind it.

She is finally gaining some weight back and being as naughty as a puppy should be after suffering from some kind of stomach ailment that included a lot of vomit and diarrhea all over our new carpet.  With that face how could you stay mad??  She was looking like skin and bones for a few days so it’s great to see her appetite back and she is looking a little rounder each day. 

We had the opportunity to go to Grandpa’s house tonight to celebrate Putter’s 6th birthday!  We had a blast swimming, swinging, eating barbeque, opening gifts, and having cake and ice cream!  My dad is so cute!

On another note, Noelle had so much fun watching Thomas’ swim lessons that she just had to join in the fun.  Britnie was nice enough to let Noelle play in the pool for a while this week.  She had a blast!  She is definitely our little dare devil!  She was jumping off the side and laughing the whole time!HPIM3093HPIM3089 HPIM3090
