Ashley Biggest & Smallest Dogs

The Saint Bernard is Bo, and this tiny pom-a-poo is Shelby (named after the town we live in). Our daughter, Ashley, was there when this tiny baby was born. She and her brother both survived, but I believe that their mother didn't make it when delivering her third baby? Ashley took on bottle feeding the two babies left, but Shelby's tan baby brother died of hydrocephalus at 4 weeks of age. However, Shelby is very much alive and well at 7-weeks-old. She has just started getting some of her baby teeth, and though she eats canned puppy food, she still takes a bottle twice a day. She finally weighs about 6 oz., whereas Bo weighs about 180 lbs. Big difference, huh?

Kaden Andrew is 7 Months Old Already!

What a happy, cheerful, loveable this little boy he is!!! He is sitting up by himself, eating foods (though he still nurses every chance he gets),
and says, "Mama" and "Dad" very well.
Here he is holding one of the pumpkins out of
his Aunt Ashley's garden. He has decided that it
makes a very nice "ball." :+)

Indoor Swimming Fun!

This past weekend one of our daughters and her husband decided to come down for the weekend. Yes, they only live a little over an hour away, and they usually stay out here at our house, but this time decided it would be fun to be able to stay in a motel so everyone could come swimming with them. So, on two different days this past weekend, I took the kids swimming at their motel. Doug was home sick all weekend, so this really worked out well so that he got some much needed peaceful sleep, and the kids all had a wonderful time!

And one thing that Cory is proud of...he can swim the entire length of the pool with only one breath!!

Farmer Boy?

Yes, "Farmer Boy." That's what the kids have named their go cart/lawn mower/race car. Our kids gave our old riding lawn mower to the neighbor's kids to use. Well it didn't run well, and they never could cut their lawn with it, but right about the same time, all the kids got an idea of "turning into something that they could ride on while the others took turns pushing." Hence, Farmer Boy. Believe it or not, this was our old black riding lawn mower. Now it's a green and white GO CART! The kids spent one whole day, and evening, working on its transformation. This is what they came up with. Isn't is awesome, how left to their own thoughts and imaginations, and not being fed a diet of electronics and t.v., what all a child can come up with?!?! God is so awesome in His design of us all! And wouldn't
Charlotte Mason be so proud?!?!
