Someone is a sucker for puppies.....

As you all know we are pet less because of the move out here. I hadn't planed on getting anymore till at least the last year we are here and Craig said NO MORE PETS..... well Merry Christmas to me! Craig came home last Thursday, asked me a bunch of questions making me think he had volunteered us to watch some one's pets over Christmas and then says Merry Christmas lets go pick out your new puppy! I was so surprised and excited.

I picked out an adorable little girl who we named KUMA ( it is Japanese for bear). She is about 9 weeks old and a black lab. She is so much fun to play with. She likes to stalk her toys and loves to run after Austin who in turn loves to run after and tease her. We are working on the teasing part. He says she is his favorite!

She loves to play and sleep under the table!

The sucker!LOL

Pretending he doesn't like her....
I think these photos say it all. ;)

Ice Skating

This weekend we took Austin ice skating and he had a blast. I can not go which stinks but I had fun taking pictures.

Austin started out having Craig push him around.

Someone throwing a fit about who knows what. The fact that Daddy tried to hold his hands instead of pushing him?

Austin saw an escape and took it. He was having fun and just thought the box looked interesting.

Progress! He went all the way around holding the wall and Craig's hand.

He was trying to taste the wall. He ran his hand along the wall and got some"snow" on his glove and then into his mouth it went. Ewwww! Oh and the skates were the OLD ones which have no ankle support. It was sooo funny watching them walk. I kept waiting for Craig's ankles to snap as they would bend sideways and almost touch the floor. I will try for pictures next time!

Squdron X mas party

We had our Christmas party this past weekend and it was pretty fun. We had a gift exchange kind of thing in which we got a pair of ski goggles and some pans. Craig loved the goggles and promptly put them on and my pans have the Teflon coming off so it was perfect! Hahaha
Yes that is Craig jumping off Santa's lap. Iwas supposed to go and sit to get our gift but kind of goofed that up. Oops! I still got a great picture though. :)
