Kid's Spring Picture Previews!

I've been slowly but surely trying to get them all edited and ready to be ordered. Every year I take the kids out on their designated day to a park to take about 200-300 pictures of them. We do their individual pictures in the spring and our family pictures in the winter. Last year I waited to the absolute last minute so we had to do our family pictures in the living room, I'll never do that again!!

But here are a preview of some I've edited:

I'm going backwards here...

My internet has been down for almost a MONTH! So I'm going backward here trying to make sure I get us all caught up!

So we DID get a puppy... He was a cross breed between a Pomeranian and a Chihuahua, a Pomchi, and he was absolutely cute. We got him from a woman on craigslist. We named him Goliath and he was 10 weeks old.

Unfortunately, we had to make the decision to return him because although Lily took a day or 2 to get comfortable near him, once she did she was constantly trying to "swish," ('squish') him, which he didn't like at all. I tried to keep them away from each other, but in a condo as small as ours, that just didn't happen. Eventually he grew tired of her aggressiveness and snapped at her cheek. Of course she didn't like that at all, and we decided that to make sure they are both safe, we need to wait until she's older to get a dog and he should be able to grow without fearing a "Myra-esque" 19 month old.

Here are a few pictures of him:


PS. Prayer request!! We need prayers that the situation with the woman we bought him from gets resolved quickly, we know God is a just God, we pray he will settle this in His mighty way!
