We're back..

.. on the blog and to our old house!


We are excited to be back in ATL at this time of year (zoo, weather, etc.) but we also miss the heck outta some GDaddy, Nana, and Lola! Farrah goes outside and calls the dogs every morning...

We hired movers this time to do the bulk of the work. Now... I'm down to those last boxes of little stuff and trying to decide if it's worth keeping, yard sale worthy, Goodwill or for the trash...

After the first night where everyone slept bad (and all in our bed - I'm missing the King Size bed, too!), we are back to sleeping good and remembering our old grocery stores, toys that were packed away, loud vehicles, and looking forward to our first zoo trip.

Swing in the front yard!


We REALLY appreciate Nana and GDaddy letting us live with them for a while. It made for some great memories, with all that happened in 7 months (Nana's back surgery, Farrah walking, all of our birthdays, Dad's dad passing, Ryan's wedding, Wednesday Survivor parties... this list can go on and on). We have great families that just love on the girls. But we know we aren't far away and will be visiting quite often!

Horseback riding

Well, sort of. Lola is a big dog...

Dogs and Bees

At least someone isn't scared of bees. Bandit loves chasing the big bumble bees!

And here's Astro and his tounge in all his glory. Yes, it hangs out like this all the time now.

Bless his Heart

Astro went to the vet today. He had to get some teeth removed. He no longer has teeth holding him back, literally. I think we'll be seeing a new Astro now.

The tongue gets all the ladies.
dont be too mean, he's not feeling so hot.

10pm Vet Trip

Welp, it's 10pm and I'm at the vet. Astro has an abcessed tooth, and
has a nice golf ball under his left eye from the swelling. Looks like
the doggy dentist is in his immediate future. Yippee!

We're just plain tired

What a week.

Bella came down with a cold Thursday night. So we haven't slept well since. Poor thing just wasn't breathing well with a stuffy nose, so I can't blame her. It's funny how you are so sleep deprived during the day, but I honestly love taking care of her in the night. Maybe it's because she needs me, but she's so sweet and pitiful at the same time.

Chris has been working a conference for a week today. It's finally over which is awesome. We both have taken over that fun cold, he's been working LONG hours for the conference a little under the weather, and I've been at home while the two of us girls get better... We're pretty much all exhausted.

I went to Kristys today to see her nursery set up, and Bella fell asleep on me just standing there. How sweet is this:


Chris was able to come home a little early tonight from rehersal (8pm?). Well, I noticed earlier in the day that little Astro's mouth / face was swollen. I made an appointment for first thing Friday morning, but it had gotten worse. So the night vet said we needed to bring him in. Chris is a great dad and took him in. He has horrible teeth (Astro that is. Chihuahua's are know for crowded teeth because their mouths are so little). We think it's his tooth. He's about 14 now, so I hope he can handle what ever they are doing to him right now.

When they left the house, I hugged him a little tighter and sent Chris with a piece of cheese for him. Astro LOVES cheese. Chris called to say he tore Astro off a piece, and somehow he's gotten it in his tail. So he is doing circles in the front seat trying to get the cheese. And if any of yall know the breathing noise he makes, you know what it sounds like right now in the car.

Here's to hoping we get some good sleep tonight......
