Well Visit Times 2

Jonathan and Lanie both had well visits today with Dr. Hensley.  Jonathan is 7 years old, 54 lbs, and 48 inches tall.  Lanie is now 4 years old, 34 lbs, and 39 inches tall.  They are both doing GREAT!!!!  
Lanie received her new book and was thrilled... but she still had to wait for her 4 ouchy shots...  Jonathan only had to get 1, and they were both very brave  xoxo

I am a quitter!!!!!

One year ago today, I hung this magazine cut out onto the craft cupboard next to my porch door, had my last cigarette, and never looked back!  After a year, I am a successful quitter and my sign can move into the memory box =)

I will sneeze for you....

Trevor (11) was the first birthday gift I ever gave Jim and Max (4) is a total mama's boy

Abra K. Dabra (1) was the only kitten born in his litter... a singleton is special =)  (his mother, Mystic, is no longer here and his dad, Magic, is mostly an outside cat by choice)
