Animals in Our Life

I have caught our family animal wildlife in the cutest settings in the last few weeks. Animals are part of the family and these animals are very much a part of our family and our work.

Daisy May is the BEST DOG we have ever had. She is so pretty and so well behaved.

She is very spoiled. This was a day that my son was listening to his history and Daisy May laid down next to him and napped. 

Later after history we all left the room and found her sound asleep under the blankets on a pillow. That is spoiled....

Levi loves to lay with Daisy May, too. Snuggle buddies!

But then Levi likes to sleep anywhere. 

I promise he does do more then JUST SLEEP!

See I finally got a picture of him awake!!!!

Then there is my work paper weight, Tinker Bell. She gets on my desk and eats my paper, pulls all the push pins off the bulletin board, goes after my pencil while I write. Yep she is always trying to "HELP" 

This is the other cat at work Tigger.  He slept on this type writer for days. I finally just had to take this picture. He is always finding a way to "Help" too.

Worst Sick Bug Ever.

This is what a sick lil momma and moose look like....

A yucky bug came to our home.  I think it is the worst sick bug ever! It all started with me. Last Thursday I felt like a train with many, many, many cars had hit me. I spent two days in bed, with fever, chills, coughing, sneezing, and aching ALL over.  On day three I did move around the house some.  On Sunday, my little guy had a fever too.  I hate that I am the one that passed this sickness to him.  

 

Moose has laid around and slept on and off.  Even Levi felt bad for him, he laid on the couch nudging his hand while he slept wanting him to wake and play with him.  

At one point Moose even slept sitting up he was so worn out from the fever. 

On Sunday Big Daddy started running a fever too. This is not looking good for the this family...

To add to this now HONEY is running a fever but she is complaining of a BAD headache to her icky feelings. 

Biggun as of right now, (knock on wood) is the only one who is not sick.  Monday Biggun finished some school work from last week that did not get finished. He is falling into a rhythm with his school. I am praying keeps on this way.  At one point Moose and Honey both asked to do school. I love that we are able to use special needs learning as we need to. Sickness is a special time. We did a few things and read some stories. Homeschooling is a wonderful that way.

Levi Strouse

Everything has been so busy around here I have not introduced our newest family member.

Meet Levi Strouse

Levi is a shorkie. That makes him half shi tzu and yorkie and down right cute as can be. 

You will notice his name is Levi Strouse. There are many people who wanted us to name our last son Levi. But I just could not pull myself to do that to a child. A dog on the other hand is a different story. He has really helped the balance of nature in our home.  

He was born on March 17th and came to be part of our family May 18th. He is very spunky and fits in just right. The reason my husband got him for me is to help me with the loss of my father. A way to have a good distraction. He is very helpful in that. Here are some more cute beyond cute pics of this little guy.

My Daddy did get to meet Levi. See that curly tail? My Daddy loved that tail. He said it was to cute and loved how spunky Levi was.

Favorite place to lay is Mommies shoulder. 

Levi does great at work. Well, at least he makes a great paper weight on my desk. 

He loves to play with my bosses new kitten, Tinker Bell.

He does serve time in his kennel for potty accidents. It is hard to mad at that cute face.

And of course he tries to help my write my blogs. I think he needs a special eduction for that. Levi is a great addition to our family.  He has really fit in, well.
