Cookie

Just a quick little update while I have a second. We had a wonderful visit with Nana and Grandad, and Morgan had a good birthday party, although she has been sick, and wasn't quite herself for it. She is in bed as we speak as she was up in the night with a high fever. Off to the doctors as soon as I can get through by phone (this has been going on, on and off for a week now and she has missed quite a bit of school). I have lots of pictures to post which I'll try to do later today.

The big news in our house is sad. As you all know we had a beautiful smooth collie named Cookie. She was our foster dog who never left because we all fell hard for her. Well this house has gotten extremely busy and loud, and Paige has a temper to be reckoned with (reminds me a lot of one of her aunties....) Anyways it has all gotten a bit much for Cookie, especially without Fury's calming influence. After much deliberation from all sides we made the heartbreaking decision to relinquish her back to her original home. I can't believe how empty the house is without a canine presence, but I think that we have made the right decision for everyone, although Maggie has been looking for her. Speaking of Maggie, poor kitty was on my lap last week, breathed on me and I almost fell over. When I looked in her mouth I discovered that she had a canine tooth that was rotting and loose. When I took her to the vet, she was able to pop it right out without putting her under. She is much happier now, and has been enjoying soft food while her gum heals.

So that's us, Christmas is quickly creeping and I must get organized and get cards out......it's been a couple of years. I'll get some pictures posted today hopefully.

xxoo to all.
