4th Grade? How Did That Happen?
Back to school… already.
Max has been so excited about heading back to school this year. The minute the class lists were posted he has been saying "I wish it were August 25th already!" Weirdo! I vote for summer foreverrrrrrrr.
Since he doesn't let me dress him anymore, and will ONLY wear dri-fit stuff from Nike and the like, I took him shopping and let him pick out one new outfit for school (since he has so many already!) He is so proud of the ensemble he chose. The color is called "laser crimson" and boy is it ever! It's a cross between red and hot pink, I guess? And he is decked out from his head to his toes in the color. He even bought his Lebron shoes with his own money. (because honestly how could I afford them? He's the money-saver!)
Here are our first day pics! He was ready to go bright and early… even though he was up all night coughing from his cold/allergies! What a kid! Cheers to a wonderful 4th grade year!

He's Home! Welcome to the Family, Flip Turner!
We picked our Goldendoodle, Flip Turner (or FTC as we like to call him), up on Monday from Kareaway Kennels in Xenia. He is now 8 weeks old and ready to be with his human family. We were all a little anxious for his arrival, just not knowing really what to expect over the next days and weeks to come. New house and a new dog? Just seems crazy.
The first 4 days have been so great. He sleeps through the night from 11 pm to 6:30 am when we have to get up to take Max to swimming (and Chris gets ready for work). He is learning how to ring a bell hung on our back door so we know when he wants/needs to go out. He eats three times a day. He LOVES chew toys; the more the better! He checked out completely healthy at the vet and at 8 weeks weighs just under 8lb. We are exhausted from constantly taking him outside to "go potty" but we love having him home.
It will be fun to watch him grow! Here are a few pics I took tonight with the help of Max and his friend Bret. :)
