Puppies, Getting Dressed & Commercials...oh my!



Our good friend Gayle called one day and asked if Kambell could be in a canal safety commercial with her. Sure, why not right? Well Kambell wasn't as excited about it as I was. It took some bribing to get her to agree... a little ice cream and a day out with mom did the trick. She just had to stand there, but it was pretty thrilling for us to see the finished product. Stay tuned to Channel 7 (NBC) between the hours of 9am & 4pm from now through August.
This morning I got in the shower and then I heard the pitter-patter of little feet coming my way. Kambell and Kinlee decided to join me. So I soaped them up, rinsed them off and sent them on their way while I finished up. To my surprise they were "dressed" and their hair was "done" when I got out of the shower. They were so proud. Kinlee said to me "Mama, do I look great?" It was so cute. I'm glad they are finally taking interest in dressing them self. I was concerned that they would forever wait for me to set out their clothes and then beg them to get dressed in the morning. As you can see Kambell chose her sparkly shirt from her clogging recital.
We have a new addition to our family. This is Suzie. She has brought great joy to our house and a little mischief, too. We will need to replace our screen door and a couple pairs of flip flops...maybe fill in some holes in the yard and garden...but overall she is such a good little puppy. She was given to us by "Teacher Erica," Kambell's preschool teacher. She gets hauled around by the girls often. She's learning to be very tolerant!
Now if I could just train Kasey to keep her outside :o)
