Toby is a Brown Belt

Toby is officially a brown belt now!!!  Way to go TOBY!!!!  We are very proud of him!

Landry and Her Hop Hop Bunny


Nana and Grandpa got Landry and singing sheep bunny for Easter.  It sings hop, hop, hop, over and over to the turn of Here Comes Peter Cottontail.  For Christmas Ms. Vera got Landry a robotic puppy.  Landry's new game is to sit on the floor and force the puppy to listen to the Hop Hop song over, and over, and over, and over......you get the idea :-)
She loves riding the rocking horse her Great Aunt Susie and Uncle Marshall got her for Christmas, too!!

Dad and His Pup


So you would think that Reagan was Atticus' Daddy!

Landry's 15 month stats

OK, for all of us that thought her old pediatrician couldn't measure right, We were ALL CORRECT.  Landry saw her new doctor for her 15 month old check-up today.

Height - 30.5 inches - 23rd percentile (yes this is more realistic, Dr. Stupid had her at 31 3/4 at 12 months)
Weight - still 20.2 lbs - 2nd percentile

On another note, Landry had her first CT scan last night because she took a huge spill yesterday afternoon.  I'm sure it is the first of many considering she is fearless and jumps off things all the time.

Easter Weekend 2009

We started this Easter weekend with a trip to Grandma & Papa's on Saturday.  Landry was so sweet, so got right up in Papa's lap and almost fell asleep there.  She was so content.  It drives Grandma crazy that Landry won't have anything to do with her.  We keep telling her that Landry is going through the stranger phase, but she still gets her feelings hurt.
After that stop, we ventured down to Waco to go to the zoo with Terra and Matt.  We had a lot of fun.  It was Landry's first visit to the zoo.  She seemed to like it.  She even let Terra carry her and point out the animals.  Brian got to really try out his new lens for the camera.  Check out the tongue on this giraffe!!
After that we went to grab a bite to eat and have some milkshakes for desert.  Scout got a butterscotch one and Landry apparently loved it.  She sucked so hard we had to pry the straw out of her mouth.
Easter Sunday, itself, was fairly uneventful.  We didn't attempt church since Landry is still officially kicked out of the church nursery and I've caught a nasty cold I can't seem to shake.  We got up and had a nice breakfast.  Later in the day, we hunted eggs.  Overall, a nice relaxing day.

It's a Boy!!!!!

Brian always wanted a little boy named Atticus............






Well, today he got his wish..................................






Meet Atticus, our 3 1/2 month old...........................




Coonhound!!!

We rescued him from the SPCA today. Some idiot bought him from a breeder, then surrendered him to the SPCA because he's too big!! People should really research before they buy a pet.....ARGH!!!! His name was Spots, but we changed it because that's stupid and this is the only way Brian will ever get his Atticus. He'll grow to 70-80 lbs and will be about the size of Reagan, just a tad smaller. It's Brian's fault, he saw him on Channel 8 yesterday when he was home sick from work.

Atticus' birthday is December 12, 2008
