38 lbs of pure fun!!!

So, my life really isn't too interesting without Bella. When I have free time and a chance to have a camera... she's there!





Here's Bella standing... it's hard to get a good picture of her standing.

I hope this trick isn't bordering on abuse... look closer to see the puppy face extreme... watery eyes and all.

Pictures of her running out to get her 'toy' (we sometimes let her have things we don't need anymore for her toys... she doesn't know the difference!) :)

Can you believe this puppy is almost months and already weighs 38 lbs!? That is one BIG baby!

AND...

Can you say, SPOILED!? Shhh.. don't tell!

A New Look...

So, today I decided I needed to change things on my blog. I also realized that all of my posts of late have to do with my puppy... and I guess there's a good reason for that. I don't have time to blog, but I couldn't let her grow up without anyone seeing her do it!

What have I been up to!? HOMEWORK! In fact, I have a paper due tomorrow and I haven't even started it yet. Not quite sure how I'm going to get it done either, but I'll think of something.

This semester I have been doing risk management research for the church. It's SUPER interesting! Lately, when I see people participating in various activities, I think about how an injury might occur and how the claim should be properly written. Yeah, I'm a nerd! BUT, the next time you plan an activity, I could tell you the statistics... like what percent of claims come from that activity. Then, maybe you would rethink things!? :)

Okay, so now I have successfully posted something other than "Bella news!" So, until next time, I hope you can all sleep better!

Happy Valentine!

Parent's valentine cards received three days prior to the empty envelope above.

...

The mailman failed to deliver the pictures my niece and nephew drew! :( I bet they are on a worker's fridge somewhere...

:) Thanks for the 'thought' Valentine... sorry it cost you .84cents to send it! :)

New Trick...

Well, I was basically running low on ideas of fun tricks to teach Bella. She's still working on improving the ones she already knows, but I wanted to add a little more spice for my benefit! :)
Yesterday during my lunch break I ran over to Walmart to get a hula hoop and these pictures show how high we've been able to get thus far. She's sure silly!










Next time I'll pay more attention to my face... telling it to smile more than simply have a pure concentrated look. ;)
