Peace...no quiet, but plenty of peace

It's a gorgeous Sunday afternoon here... the sun is out and shining and gorgeous; the children have finished all their chores so the house is nice and clean (unless you count puppy toy-carnage, which I don't); everyone of all species is happily occupied, and I can sit here and relax.  Ahhh...

For today's gratuitous cute puppy picture, I give you a boy and his dog laying on the floor.  Stella was amazingly cuddly today for most of the time.

And as I come back to this blog entry, at 9:30 at night, I can tell you that Stella's cute and cuddly kissy act during the day led to spastic hyperactivity and mouthing and biting like crazy this evening.  We're all pretty sure she's grown massively in the last 3 days in height, length and weight.  I can't wait to get in to puppy training classes!!!

Oz is hanging in.  I just hydrated him and put him with the big boy for a while to snuggle.  He and Conner are very attached to each other, so this is going to be very hard on the poor kid.  He just lost "his" cat, one of the previously outdoor neighborhood cats who fell in love with him, a couple years ago now.  But Oz is getting up and eating and drinking, using the scratcher, using the litterbox and snuggling and purring.  However, he has lost 2 lbs since his vet visit.  It's going to be tough to tell when it's time.

Otherwise it was a fairly uneventful Sunday, which is FINE with me.  Right now, everyone is settled in bed or on the couch, the toys are cleaned up....

THAT is no small task sometimes....having a puppy is a lot like having a toddler around!

Not much of an update for today, but not much to update!  That in itself is a pretty good thing.

Time to migrate upstairs and settle in to bed, read some more and then crash.  Sleep!  Yay!
