"Did I Do That"...

October 2008:

Daisy went into heat a couple weeks ago and they were keeping her and Tex seperated; for 2 weeks Tex has been living outside and sleeping in the shop. Then I came to visit and got all of them confused and let out the wrong dog... can a dog get pregnant after just one time? But they were both so happy after the fact. Now we just have to wait to see if we end up with Christmas puppies.
Update:

Well as it turns out there will be no puppies for Christmas. Although they say they still might mate her again next year. Next time I will pay more attention.

Just like Mom...

Daisy is here visiting and she loves to lay in the sun...so you don't need to look very far to find Curly Sue. She has also taught her a very bad thing! Daisy love to eat the fresh vegetables right out of the garden, tomatoes, okra, etc. She has taught Curly Sue about the garden also. Curly Sue never went into the garden, could have cared less what we were doing there. But lately I have caught her with okra and she's been bringing tomatoes into the house to finish eating. BAD DOG!

what? it wasn't me!

just pretty fall flowers.

My Mom makes quilts and while we were going to the Fall Fairs at Amanda's we came across a quilt show. This was the only picture that turned out, but it reminded me of some my Mom has done in the past. This needle work is all done with ribbons. Just gorgeous!

I'm cute...

Daisy went to the groomers today, she's all cute and stuff. Here I was trying to take her picture for Amanda and Charles to see...

OK, I told them not to put the bow in your hair, but just look this way...

that's better now look up...

so pitiful...

See...now that wasn't so bad was it?

Mary, Mary quite contrary, how does your garden grow?

Well, the sunflowers are up to 2' tall and that's corn and green beans in front of them. We had to put stakes at the ends of the rows and start running twine every 4" to help support everything on windy days. So far we've added four rows to the sunflowers. These are the best sunflowers I've ever gotten to grow...look out you giants.

We also placed stakes and twine on the corn/greenbean row. They only have one row so far. I picked a bush type bean, so they won't get really tall.







These are the cherry tomatoes which I started from seed.

Can't wait to taste them, Yum.


We are going to Oklahoma next week to help my Mom with some yard work and purging, I have also heard we may be putting down new laminate flooring through the kitchen/dining room. When I spoke to her yesterday she said she had a list. Maybe I should have asked how many pages?



Is it strange to now know that "the baby" is a girl, that it just seems alot more real. My house is sooooo not ready for a baby! Charles says it will be okay, we'll just put her down with the dogs.



Speaking of dogs Daisy, one of our other grandbabies is expecting in the next week or so. They are suppossed to take her to the vet soon to have an xray of the babies to determine how big they are and if she'll have to have a c-section.
