I am so happy to report that Dex is doing fantastic!!! He is more or less walking on his own, his tail is wagging and he HATES being locked up in his crate.
He has a nasty incision down starting midway down his back. The stitches come out next week and his hair is starting to grow back.
He has also learned that whining might just get him out of the crate. I haven't yet been able to differentiate between the "Mom, I have to pee!" whine and the "Mom, get me out of here whine!" Or maybe he just learned that the "Mom, I have to pee!" whine generally works, regardless so he'll try anything to get out!
Paul has been a fantastic caregiver through this whole process. He has taken on 90% of all of Dex's pre and post op care making sure that doctor's orders are followed. He's going to make a great Dad someday!
Welcome to our little space of the web.
After buying a cute little mill house in Five Points, renovating it and thinking we would never live anywhere else we decided to move. To a rancher. A pink rancher. So not us. But, it will be, with time, elbow grease and good contractors! From the first time we walked in the front door we knew we were home. The new house is right around the corner from my parent's house where I grew up. We are so excited for Matthew and Charlotte to grow up here, riding bikes, going to the pool, playing in the woods... my childhood was filled with freedom and wonder allowed by a safe neighborhood that I could explore and make my place in the world. I am thrilled we can give that to our children.
These days our blog is filled with the adventures of Mateo and Charlotte...mixed in with a few home projects and recipes. But mostly the kids take front and center. Join us on the adventure!

What to do with the super ripe fruit that came in this weeks veg box???
2 orders of grow alabama peaches
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Some milk (maybe 1, or 2cups)
Wash peaches
Cut up into blender
Liquify
Add lemon and milk
I am trying to go no sugar these days...my pcos has led to some insulin resistance and sugar generally makes me feel really bad)
Freeze in an ice cream maker
It came out a little tart so I'll probably add a little splenda to the next batch! The next batch will be made with one canteloupe and a banana...
Enjoy!
