This is Bree. She's Bubba & Grampy's Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and one of the very few dogs I actually adore. I've never had a dog and am not-so-sure how I feel about having a dog here in our teeny house - seems like a lot of work (for me!). But, Ben LOVES, LOVES, LOVES Bree and will randomly tell us that he "misses Bree" or say "I want a Bree." Ben got to go for a ride with her (in his new booster seat) and according to Bubba he was "so proud having his girl in his lap." So funny!Our beloved babysitter Sarah is on vacation this week (how dare she! - we love and need her :)... so Ben and I are having a long week of togetherness. Plus it snowed yesterday, so we've had a lot of stir-crazy togetherness. AND, my work is picking up to a super-busy pace (thankfully!) so I'm keeping on my toes. Taking calls from clients while Ben is squirting massive amounts of finger paint on his homemade Valentines... hopefully they dry before Feb. 14. But at the same time it's been a lot of fun.
Also, we decided to paint Ben's room last weekend... turning it from baby to big boy (as a surprise for his b-day he's getting a loft bed, bean-bag chair and new posters, etc. so we decided he needed a new paint job - more to come on that later). So we had the pleasure of having his bed in our family room, dresser in our dining room and changing table at the foot of our bed for two nights. It was a TAD chaotic but also pretty funny...
