Bad News

So you all know Bruce is a Veterinarian,

who fixes up the pets of the world...

He emailed me these pictures below today... (And since I haven't blogged in weeks) thought I'd blog them.

This is the stomach of a 20lb Pug dog...

you can see there's something inside it that Bruce had to go in surgery to retrieve: This is what he pulled out.

YOWZER

How does a dog even eat this.
It was a branch from a palm tree.
Bruce said it was 13 inches long.

The owners brought him in because he was vomitting. The dog is going to be okay, hopefully the owners will be financially, I always feel bad...

an appetizing palm tree branch +
a dog who has no respect for his owners bank account =
approx. $1,500

ugh.

Bath Time!

I don't know WHY with my first child I BOUGHT a miniature "bathtub" for our baby... isn't that exactly what a kitchen sink is?!

This time when I was bathing Sophie in the sink, Lily was watching LONGINGLY, like it appeared the funnest thing to be a baby, so you could bathe in the sink. She crawled on the counter and you could just feel how much she wanted to get in too.

I figured Lily, age 4 and a half, won't be able to fit in the sink for much longer.... so I started filling up the other side, and she was SO excited that I let her take a bath in the kitchen sink with Sophie.

I learned again how much more fun it is to be a "YES" mom then a "NO" mom.
