Help us find them a home!!

We are saddened to have to find our new puppies a home, but after long discussions, prayers and a few tears, we feel that it is best.  We live right behind a school and although there are many nice kids that come and play with the puppies during the school, there are also a few little punks that tease them, feed them garbage and even kick them through the fence.  I know that I cannot keep an eye on them every second of the day and we cannot bring them in because Charlie breaks out into rashes and his eyes puff up.  So, if you know anyone...

They are the sweetest puppies!  They are male and 7 months old.  They are both neutered and have most of their shots including rabies.  They are good-natured, great with older kids, play well together, play fetch and are pretty smart.  Their mom was a full bred German Shorthair Pointer and dad was an Australian Shepherd.  They are very good looking dogs! Here is Winston.

And this is Chester.

If you know anyone that may be interested, please let me know!  We were hoping to sell them together, but will split them if we have to.  We were also hoping to get $50 for the pair to pay for 1 of the neuters.  They come with their leashes, some food, collars and the treats that we have left.

9 months old...and then 10!

My baby is 10 months old!!  I can't believe how quickly he is growing!  Pretty soon he will be a toddler!

Charlie is a very happy baby!  He has been crawling since the 2nd of February and has been into everything since!  He is walking along furniture and loves walking with his walker!  I think that he will be walking within the next month!  His 9 month stats were : wt: 17lbs 15 oz (20%),  ht: 28 inches (50%).  So, he is average height and way skinny!  Jack was the same way...I keep thinking that since I have such tall and skinny kids, I MUST have the skinny gene somewhere and there is hope for a skinnier future!
Charlie had his first ear infection, making it his first sick visit ever...not too bad for 10 months of life.  Jack made it to 18 months for his first.  I am grateful for healthy kids!
Charlie LOVES his big brother so much!  Here are some pictures of the boys playing the piano.  Jack is such a helper...or else he just wanted to push the keys that Charlie was!
Charlie has such a wonderful smile!  He is a ham and hams it up on a regular basis!  He is now in the stage where he pulls everything out of drawers and off of shelves...Unfortunately, the putting everything away stage has not started yet!  He is also LOVING the whole eating real food thing!  He loved it all!  We just went through a slightly painful weaning to formula because he just wasn't getting what he needed from me, but we made it through and he is doing well!

We are so blessed to have this little guy in our lives!!
