Merry Christmas!


Merry Christmas from Meredith, Adrian, and Carter too!

Dead Duck!


The duck has finally bit the dust! Carter managed to decapitate the duck that his Auntie Carol gave him when he first came home. RIP, duck!

Snow Day!

Today was a snow day from school. The weather has been pretty bad all day long...snowing and a lot of blowing wind. Here are some pictures of how we spent our day...



A view of our front door...poor Carter has to jump the snow banks
to go potty!


Digging for God only knows!



Snow Bunny! Come on, let me in!

Partay!


The three of us went to a Christmas party at Jaime's house on Saturday. While we were there Jaime gave me my Christmas presents from Alex...a nice, fuzzy blanket; and Carter's first Christmas ornament! Thanks Alex (and Jaime!)
The party was fun, thanks for the invite!

Loved by All...What a Feeling!

I took Carter into work on Thursday at the end of the day to say hi to everybody. Right away a TA saw him and said "Oh, this is what I needed right now, it's been such a rough day." It was nice to know that seeing our little furball made her feel better, even for a small moment. Then he got lots of love from his Auntie Melanie, the School Nurse! Carter then made his second trip to the Principal's Office, where he was greeted enthusiastically by his "Uncle Tony," thats a direct quote from the horse's mouth! "Uncle Tony" likes to swoop Carter up and take him to a mirror where they can look at one another and see how cute they are. To know Tony is to love Tony, and I am SO thankful that he is my Principal!

Later on that night Aunt Karen called to formally invite us to Christmas Eve at her house. Of course we're going, it's tradition! Then she asked if Carter could come too! So excited that Carter gets to be a part of the festivities. I told Aunt Karen we would bring him, but that Aunt Bert has already requested to babysit him that night, and if we back out totally she will be hearbroken! So Carter will be visting both Aunt's houses that night.

How lucky are we to have such an in-demand pup?! He's the best and every day we tell one another how much we love him....even when he snarling and biting our pant legs,asking to go outside in the middle of a snow storm, begging for food, and crying and whining! :) What a guy!

First Trip to the Groomer!

Tonight we decided to brave the elements and take Carter for his first grooming! We went with the "puppy cut," so his face, paws, and legs got a little trim. His nails were also cut. Carter can actually see now! All that hair in front of his eyes is no longer...he looks like a different dog...so much older! The groomer said that he was a little nervous, but was friendly, and he of course got lots of love from all he came into contact with! He's a little charmer;) I'll post some pics soon, I haven't taken any yet because he's been sleeping.
