Baby #2 - 17 Weeks

This week flew by fast! Not much has changed, although it seems my belly disappeared today. My next doctors appointment is next Friday. Can't believe it will be my 18 week appointment - time is screaming by really fast these days. I feel pretty normal and starting to crave some veggies (thank god). I was beginning to worry I'd never be able to eat greens again. I am craving less carbs and more steamed veggies, whoohoo! I'm pretty sure this is what happened last pregnancy too.

In other news, today is national dog day. Thank you Cooper for being Hunter's stepping stool, tug of war toy, teething toy, compost bin, and sidekick. We couldn't have asked for a nicer dog!

Cat vs Dog

Learning that playing with Kenya is different than playing with Cooper! We are working on "gentle" with Hunter and so far Kenya has been very patient.

Hunter and Cooper

Hunter's laugh kills me. He is ob-sesssed with Cooper these days. Pulls his hair, climbs all over him, and laughs every time he sees him. I love watching them, even with Coopers doofy lampshade on.

The Big Snip

Drugged up on the ride home

He stared at the wall for an hour

..and then passed out

Pretty much what he's been doing the last two days..

We decided back in April 2013 when we got Cooper that we would neuter him when he turned one. Life got a little busy, but we finally got around to scheduling the appointment and as of Friday, Cooper is off the market!

The first night he did OK..he whined a bit and was pretty bothered by the cone, as expected, but since has been doing just fine. Our biggest challenge is not running into doors and walls! He is such a doof and with the cone he is even doofier. Oh, and Robert and I failed to communicate about who gave him his pain meds and we ended up doubling his meds - yikes! After a call to the ER doc, we were instructed to watch him for any crazy behavior. He was fine..really fine. I think the extra dose was much appreciated on his part because he fell asleep and didn't make a peep!

We love this dog and we are so happy he is in our lives. Hunter finds him hilarious as it is, but with the cone on he never stops laughing.

Cheers to you, Mr. Cooper.

First Time Swingin'

I've been wanting to put Hunter in a baby swing for months now, but couldn't find one (surprisingly). We found a new park in PA that is amazing - not only does it have a baby swing, but it has a dog park for Mr. Cooper! What a beautiful weekend it is, we are soaking it up.
