What kind of Mother am I?

Today was supposed to be Jersey's day -- a blog all about Jersey. You see today was Jersey's first day of doggie "good manners" obedience class. Mommy and Hailey went along with Daddy and Jersey for their first big day at school. It was supposed to be like the first day at kindergarten, lots of pictures and attention, all about Jersey. Bad mommy got distracted with Hailey and other things and didn't take a single picture of my middle child's first day of school -- terrible I know. So here we have Jersey after coming home (and getting a bath, some reward for a great day at school) cuddling with her favorite squirrel and being mad at mommy for ruining her big day...

Cali's thoughts on all this -- "get over it, I have cancer!" Her tumor looks really bad, but I assure you all she is still eating, playing and running around like a big 6 year old puppy, she's such a little trooper ... in fact today she had the energy to run away from mommy, across the road to the new neighbors house and meet their little sheltie, Gator ... guess where they moved from!? Yup, Florida -- I suppose we can still be friends =) They seem really nice and Gator was fast friends with Cali.





And a blog entry would not be complete without an appearance by Hailey -- shhh ... don't tell the dogs I shared their entry with her ... Here she is modeling mommy's latest consignment finds --

Just so ya'll don't think I'm cheap I must say -- consignment is not normally my thing, but Clarksville has these events at different places hosted by church groups, mommy / baby organizations, etc that do just baby consignment for a day or two twice a year -- and there are some good finds. And those who have kids know, baby stuff isn't cheap and they literally wear it for a nano second -- so mommy has been trying to save pennies and the environment by shopping resale -- just had to say that!
