New Boss in Town


Presenting our newest addition, Baby Josie!






She is a 1 pound 4 ounce bundle of joy. While very tiny, quiet and shakey, in true chihuahua fashion she has let the other dogs know that she is the boss.
While I knew I would someday get another chihuahua after my beloved Tia died, I hadn't planned on getting one so soon. When I found out about little Josie she seemed perfect....and I think she is.
Guess we're just a bunch of dog lovers!

April Update


Deanna has been busy with school and activities. She is loves school and is beginning to read pretty well. She is very active though, and while she does well working alone she has trouble sitting still and paying attention during group time. We are always working on impulse control!

She continues to enjoy gymnastics and has progressed quite a bit the last few months. She is also playing softball this spring, our first game is coming up soon. She is the youngest one on the team but able to keep up physically. Pictures to come.

We continue to have speech therapy two times a week. Most of her sounds are fine, with L and R giving her some difficulty. She is improving all the time and we are working on using complete and proper sentences. She loves to talk on the phone and calls me when I am on my way home from work. She also has Mimi's number memorized and calls her often too. Thankfully Mimi enjoys this. She is now memorizing Jeremy and Jordan's numbers but somehow I don't think they will be as receptive to her chatter!

Deanna continues to be happy and excited all the time. Although she can be sassy and very dramatic she is incredibly loving and affectionate!
