Sunny Sunday Afternoon... Daddy, Homer and Foster

Saturday, September 13, 2008

Our trip to the vet... Last weekend, Foster and I took Homer to the vet for his shots... Foster did better than Homer and ended up with more treats too!!! It was certainly an experience but one that I will not re-visit. Foster will stay with a sitter the next time one of the babies has to go see Dr. Sue.

6 Random Things Kasey Chrismond asked me to name six random things about myself... 1) I sometimes treat myself to vanilla ice cream with brown sugar sprinkled on top! 2) I tivo "reality" shows like the Hills on MTV and Keeping Up With The Kardashians on E! 3) I have to have a chocolate long john from Hoover's Bakery at least once a week-with a coke of course:) 4) Sleeping is my favorite hobby. 5) I cannot stop rearranging the furniture in the house. I am always looking for places to add or move pieces around-I think about it in my sleep!! 6) I am the happiest when I'm with Phillip and Foster!!!!

The Granddaddies: Foster & Granddaddy Foster & Bo Foster & Papaw
The Punch Incident: So I leave Foster alone in the den for two seconds and this is what I find when I return... You can't really tell from the picture but the punch puddle was pretty large and she was covered-so much in fact that her arms and legs were red! Needless to say, the floor got mopped AGAIN and Foster had an early bath that night:)

Chocolate Anyone??? We had chocolate pudding for the first time the other day. I'm not really sure how well she liked the taste but playing in it was awesome:)
