a hardy handful: [weekend randomness]

To my few readers, sorry I have been MIA lately! Switching to dayshift and selling puppies has consumed my past 2 weeks! Day shift at the hospital is GLORIOUS! I absolutely love having peaceful mornings when I come in and having time to gather my thoughts and see my patients, vs coming to chaos and spending your whole evening playing catch up. I am here to tell you 3-11 is the worst shift ever created! I feel like I still have a life and my life is not just consumed with work now that I am on days!

Ryan and I had a busy weekend this past weekend. Saturday we went to Birmingham for our favorite 2 year olds birthday party. Little Miss Sarah had a Curious George themed birthday party. She is such a mess! I am so glad we were able to go and see Sarah. Lee and Leah claim we only come to Birmingham to see Sarah and not them. I can't totally deny it :)

Since we were going to Birmingham for Sarah's party, we also brought Little Miss Gullah to her new home. She was oh so excited to be there! And of course, I was an emotional basketcase leaving her. She has great new parents and I know she will be more than spoiled by Elizabeth & Caleb.

Sunday we went to Sewanee to bring Fat Girl to Ms. Nancy(who is our stud dog's owner). Nancy's dog Isabelle also had a litter of puppies 10 days after Maddie and it was fun getting to see them. They all seemed so tiny compared to our fatties. Right now we are keeping Jacks & our other male (whom for now we are calling "Ridge"). We aren't able to register Ridge since he has a small patch of white on his neck. Boykin Spaniel regulations are it can only be on their chest, and not their neck-which is crazy considering the breed has white in them-but I won't go on my rant with that. We had several families want him then change their mind because they decided they wanted a registerable boykin spaniel so they could do field trials & such. So if anyone knows of a very active family or one who hunts-we still have one cute, well tempered, great puppy! Ridge & Jacks are doing great potty training and so far today has been the first day with no accidents inside. I am one proud momma!
