How little boys brush…

 I heard a ruckus and walked in to find Joseph very comically brushing his teeth…

Duchess

Well... Lorelai turned 10 years old so naturally I had a urge to nurture a little baby.  Cue the puppy purchase.  This is Duchess.  She is a blue great dane born on November 9, 2021.  We brought her home on January 16, 2022.  She is fitting in wonderfully and has been so good for us and for Bruno!  He adores his new playmate.

Wrestling all day

No fear of Bruno.  He's doing so well with her.

She is totally attached to Bruno.  They are always cuddling together

Bruno says, "You're in my spot".  This is where Bruno always lays down

She won't fit under this table for long

First bath...not a fan

She even sneaks into Bruno's crate to cuddle him

videos below of the evening we brought her home

Ragdoll

 Scarlet is being thrown around like a ragdoll as she tries to play tug-o-war with a 150lb dog.  Enjoy the video

Evelyn reading

I love to hear Evelyn read.  She is so expressive.  I'm proud of how far she has come with her reading...

Joseph homeschool

 Joseph keeps getting sent home from school because I refuse to put a mask him and someone near him tests positive for covid.  We are doing some homeschool together to make up for it.  He loves it.  Homeschool may become a permanent thing in the future...
