Baby for Puppy

I don't know about your dogs, but Olie was very excited when Colleen brought Chris home. I'm sure she thought he was for her. However by the time Oliver was born, she was a little bit done with all these babies that liked to pull her ears. But she was still very concerned about the welfare of all the babies and would make sure they were all right by shoving her nose in there little faces, and then leave them alone until they started eating.

CUPCAKE

You gotta watch out for those little cupcake gremlins! Finn and Lucy are only a few months apart, and both are getting more and more mobile. I didn't think they would reach the cupcake as fast as they did.

Hormotional

True Story.

Don't Get Me Started...

People think I'm quiet. They've obviously never talked to me about dogs. And those that have, regret it pretty quickly!

Kids at Church

We ruin more hymns that way. 
 Remember kids are kids, and an hour long mass is a very long time for a kid to sit still. So be patient and remember that you were once like that. And maybe still are.

We can't have a boat either.

Although there are members of the family who have access to fancy boats. Also this guy we are chasing actually exists. He just shows up every once in a while speeds around like a tool and blasts Nickleback. I dislike him.
The song being played by us is from Fred Penner's "Story of Blunder" it's the Goblin Song.
G-O-B-L-I-N GGG-GOBLIN!

The Magpie

Once again this picture of my painting was take with an ipad, so the colors, tones and such are a bit off from the original painting. But you get the idea.
Magpies are one of my favorite birds. Even though they are mean and rather violent to other birds and animals, they are very pretty. They also are quite clever. In summer you can see them...well, everywhere, but especially down the quiet side streets by the river. There is something very serene about walking amongst the big trees and watching the magpies climb up them, searching for food. Or maybe that's just me.
