Doggonit

So, I know it's been a while since I've posted anything… life has gotten in the way once again. For the past month, my 6 month old seems to think that she should wake up every hour to play and practice standing. If it weren't for the gloriousness of a good cup of coffee (or five) and Winsley's late night giggles as she amazes herself with her new skills, I might have puled all of my hair out already. Winsley is a big trickster - It's hard to get frustrated with a little girl who smiles and giggles so much.
Anywho, I'm back! Lots of updates to come, but for now I'll leave you with some cuteness from this past weekend.
We were dog sitting for my little sister and Ellington loved every minute of it. After the first few hours, she acted as if Birdie (the dog) had always lived with us. 
Winsley didn't really notice that Birdie was there most of the weekend. Whenever she did catch Birdie in her eyesight, she giggled and smiled like crazy.
Birdie was rescued from the local animal shelter and I don't think my sister could have found a better dog. She is the sweetest! And she could not have been more gentle around my girls. We spent lots of time outside and I just let her roam around with out a leash on most of the time… well, she didn't really roam. Birdie is the type of dog that would rather stay glued to your side than run off to explore.
Such a blessing to have this sweet little lady join our family for the weekend. I cannot image why anybody would have abandoned her at the shelter, but I'm glad that they did and she found a home with my sister. :)

  2. Ellington actually woke up yesterday morning and asked where Birdie was :( I had to tell her that Birdie went home & we'd see her next weekend, maybe

  3. I LOVE this post! Carney showed me some of these photos, I am sure she was so thankful that Birdie was in such good hands. Ellington looks like she is having a blast with the dog!

  4. Sarah, Ellington had so much fun! Birdie, on the other hand, was relieved when Carney came back to pick her up. Birdie hopped in the car and refused to get out - I think the poor thing thought Carney dropped her off with my 2 crazy girls to live forever
