Minnie Mouse, the new puppy


Ella looking tough in her leather jacket, braids and missing tooth while Minnie Mouse looks minnie.
We finally broke Natalie down and got a dog. She's been fighting it and complaining about the 3 cats and 4 turtles, but a family just isn't a family without a dog. When I say we broke her down, it was really Grams dropping her off on the day Ella returned from the hospital...but Minnie Mouse has won over Natalie's heart. The first night we were home from the hospital Minnie Mouse slept on a pillow right next to Ella and watched over her all night. That was it, she was in!


Minnie Mouse is a few years old with really stinky breath! We are adopting her from a neighbor of Michele's aunt who is very sick with cancer. Her original name was Sassy. As soon as we can get her to the vet for her shots we'll be getting her cleaned-up and groomed. She has already had some poop stick to the hair around her butt and then drag her butt across the floor trying to get it off. Poop doesn't come out of the carpet too easily :-(






Although the house smells more like poop, we love Minnie Mouse. She follows us around, sleeps at the end of the bed and is always looking for love.
This is us out at the local Ma & Pa trail for a family walk. Thomas ran 4 miles and the girls walked about a mile and a half!

Natalie and Thomas - wow! Thanks for building the blog. This is excellent. Love the way you can keep us all posted. Nat, think your idea about using this as a place for us all to visit with each other is right on.

Made me feel so good to see Donnie has been here.
