Landscaping and Updates

I know it's been a while since I have posted...but what can I say: I've been keeping busy.

We have surely been enjoying our new puppy, Alex. As is Jackson. She is a little hellraiser and as of right now, definitely the dominant of the two. She has already gone through 2 weeks of puppy class and will have her 3rd class on Saturday. At 13 weeks she already knows how to sit on command, come on command, she maintains great eye contact, and will drop whatever she's doing when you tell her "eh-eh". She's doing phenomenal....now if only she'd be a little quicker with potty training.We've been having tons of rain lately, and I figured that it was the perfect time to finally get that backyard I've always dreamed of having (at least the one I've been dreaming about for this house) So after a couple weeks of fixing it up ourselves it is finally done (well, done with the landscaping...no frills yet). I eventually hope to have a little apple tree, a fountain in the corner for the dogs to drink from, and a little raised planter for vegetables or flowers. In the mean time though I am happy with it and so are the babies.Vigoro Red Rubber Mulch

The potty side of the yard


I went to the doctor yesterday for an infection that I have on my right side. They ended up having to numb me and drain it. Then they packed it with gauze, so I will be going back there tomorrow for them to check it and unpack it. They are testing me for MRSA, and I will know the results in 5 or 6 days. At this point I just want to know what I'm dealing with, I hate not knowing. I feel much better now though since they drained it.

Well I'm going to do some housework now and hopefully make my husband a very happy man with a clean house and dinner on the table later!
