Every year I look forward to August because we get to celebrate all the birthdays and I get to plan Jalen's party and in that aspect, I have still looked forward to August, but in another aspect, I dread this August. This August, the 25th to be exact, I start my internship. It is exciting because I get to graduate soon after, December 16th to be exact, but I dread having to leave my baby for so long. Many times I go all week never being apart from him, so to go from never leaving him to leaving him 40 hours a week for around 12 weeks is extremely hard. I actually hate the thought of it. It kills me to know I can't pick him up from school or even take him until December. It kills me that I don't get to ask him how his day was first. It kills me to know that I don't get to dress him every morning or spend the day doing fun things or just nothing at all. From this, I've truly realized how it is the little things in life that mean the most and sometimes we take them for granted. Also, I've realized how much family support we have to make all this work. So with the first day of August here, I am excited and happy, but sad at the same time. I only have 136 more days until I graduate, but who is counting?
Late from work, kids screaming, phone ringing, dogs barking, dinner is burning - just another day in paradise and no where else I'd rather be!

One Week
We've survived the first week of puppyhood. She's doing great and getting big. Last week we took her to the doctor and she was 8 pounds 4 ounces and we will be going again tomorrow to start vaccines. She had some tapeworms last week that we got medicine for. She's doing great and we love having her. We are looking forward to the nights she sleeps through! She likes to howl at night, but luckily she's learned really quickly to go pee and poops outside. Yay!!

A Night on the Town
Last night we went to Broadway on the Beach and had a great time. We ate at our favorite Joe's Crab Shack and then headed down to Build-A-Bear to create some new friends. Jalen created a bear and named him Pookie! Ryan created a triceratops and named him Triceratops! :) It's always a fun adventure!!
