Dawson the crazy puppy!

Dawson is still a puppy. I have to keep reminding myself that. He is 7 months now and getting bigger than I thought he would. He weighs 36 pounds and he is only supposed to be 35 to 40 pounds full grown. His doctor just informed me that he will be closer to 50 pounds. What???????
You have got to be kidding me. He IS a Mini Golden Doodle, right. At least thats what I was told.
I just hope he doesn't start jumping over our less than 4 foot fence.

He has been a fun new addition to the family even though he eats all my flowers and chews everthing he can get his mouth on. I feel like Marley and Me all the time now.

Well here he is.....he is pretty cute though. Thats the only thing that keeps me from having a nervous breakdown sometimes when I walk out in my backyard and my brand new planter is scattered from one side of the yard to the other.

Announcing Milestones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ella learned how to ride her bike a few weeks ago. She is only 3! My little tomboy has to keep up with those boys.

Ella is a Cub Scout now and she is wearing the shirt proudly. Or at least she wishes she was. The boys just beame Tiger Cubs and they are loving it.

Dylan is the toothless wonder. He was the first to loose his top front tooth. Thanks to mommies pulling strength.

Fun Times on the 4th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had a wonderful time on the 4th together. We hiked the "M" and the kids just had a blast. We took Dawson with us and he stopped at every shade spot he could. Ella was so proud of herself because she hiked all the way back down all by herself. We had great friends over for the evening with brats on the grill and a fireworks show.
