Proud Parents

We are now the proud foster parents of Ally the Basset Hound! We have been going through the process of becoming foster parents for the Basset Hound Rescue of Georgia. We had to fill out a bunch of forms, have our home inspected and asked a lot of questions before we were approved. Our temporary baby came home with us today and she is doing good so far. She is a precious red and white bassett with lots of freckles and a healthy appetite. Pictures to come.

Green Monster

I had a total jealousy moment this afternoon. I had to swing by the family's house I baby-sit for to pick up a book I left over there (and my check for sitting!). When she answered the door the kids were asleep and she was laying on the couch eating crackers. I thought of the fact I had to be in an office all day and had a moment of wishing, " I wish I could lay on the couch for a couple hours in the middle of the day and watch Hannah Montana." Well maybe not Hannah Montana, but you get the point. Now I am sure a lot of you are thinking that being a stay at home mom is a lot of work. It is. It is probably one of the hardest job on the planet, and I'm not ready... but I do wish I got a nap time ;)

Differences in Taste

It is funny whenever I come into work now they listen to the river a classic rock station here in Atlanta. I feel like I am playing Guitar Hero III at work all day :)

Kennel

Kevin and I decided that until we could purchase a larger kennel for Bella she would be allowed to sleep with us. So far there have been other pressing financial obligations and Bella's kennel has been placed on the back burner. I don't think she is suffering too badly. :)

Snow in Atlanta

Today it snowed in Atlanta... for more than a few minutes. The snow stuck and was absolutely beautiful from our sunroom. A lot of the people from our complex were out playing in the snow. There are little snowmen built on top of cars and someone staged a massive snowball fight in our parking lot. We so rarely see snow that everyone gets so excited and takes pictures of it and plays in the snow. I think my parents have a picture of everytime it has snowed at their house in a photo album somewhere. It should be interesting to see if everything is shut down tomorrow. If the schools and businesses close because of a little bit of snow.
