I'm a slacker on here as of late, so here is an update on what we have been up to this past month:
-We have settled into life with a dog. Fiona is probably the calmest dog I have ever met. We have had he for going on 2 months, and I have yet to hear her bark. Kind of strange. She still doesn't like to eat it seems and only drinks water when she knows she is not going to be bothered by the boys, which means that hardly happens. I worry about he eating and drinking, but I guess if she is desperate enough she will eat and drink! Strange dog.
We have also realized that vets in this area try to bleed you dry of your money when you go in. Every time we go in, they talk about all these tests that they want to do or things they want to give her and you are required to pay on the spot. If we let them do everything they wanted, we would easily spend $500 or more per visit. She is an old dog. We knew that when we adopted her, so we are really not looking to do any kind of interventions. We just want her to live her last years nice and comfortable.
-I got a new job! I started at a new gym this past week, and so far I really love it. I hope that it is a much better environment then my last job. I work when Greg is home, which means either really early mornings or nights. It seems to be working for now, so lets home it is a good thing for our family!
-My sister came to visit us! She will be going on a mission to the DC south mission which is just across the river from us. She came to say goodbye so to speak, even though I hope we get to see her from time to time since she will be in the DC area. We had a great time with her here!
-Summer has hit, which means high heat and humidity are now a daily thing. I don't know if you can ever really get use to that kind of weather.
Here are few cute pictures to accompany a pretty random and mishmashed post :)
