Don't all dogs play on swingsets?

I've received several requests for pictures of our amazing sliding cocker. I have to admit it may be slightly unsettling to look out the window and see her happily climbing up the ladder and sliding down, or hanging out in the treehouse with nobody around.....but I'm glad we are able to entertain her none the less.

The smile that lights up our day!

Don't blink! Or you might just miss this little one growing up! I'm always amazed, and a wee bit saddened, at how quickly a squishy little newborn turns into a miniature human. Quinn has been smiling for a few weeks now, and our efforts at getting a grin are almost always rewarded with a warm smile and sometimes with the most delightful sound of first baby giggles. Having a bad day? Take two looks at these and call us in the morning....

If your wondering....that's twelve pounds of pure love right there!

Bless the USA!

We love a parade in our little family! For Memorial Day this year we celebrated our patriotic spirit at a local small town parade. The boys had lots of fun waving their red, white and blue. Although the parade was a tad bit on the short side, Jack declared it the "best parade ever" because it had a tuba and a firetruck.


Showing off our red, white and blue!

We are getting quite the collection of pictures of Quinn sleeping through various events! What can we say? It's a lot of work to make those deliciously chubby baby thighs!
