Bird is 11 Months: Flashback


Remember when I shared that I had acquired the sweetest puppy, Birdie? Cue the cutie-cute puppy pics…

Little baby!

Meeting her “daddy dog”

Well now baby Birdie is a big girl! 40lbs! She is happy and healthy and still the cutest thing ever (in my opinion anyway).

For Halloween, she was a witchy-woman.

With her brother, Mr. Wiggs

More Birdie here! Sorry…I’m a proud mama.

Walking the Dog

Super cute, even whilst dog walking.

BIRDIE!

My baby is home! Hallelujah! I feel like I’ve been through a war in the past week but just look at this face!

Thank you to everyone who was praying for her, for us. Birdie is home and we are nursing her back to health!

I have the sweetest story to share. Last weekend, Robert and I visited with his Aunt & her family for Easter in Memphis. She has two young sons that had a ball playing with Birdie. When they heard she was sick they were so sad. On Friday morning, the vet gave her a last-ditch-effort blood transfusion. By 2pm, Robert had gotten word that the transfusion hadn’t worked and we needed to prepare to put her down. He let his mom know, who called her sister. The boys held hands and prayed out loud for Birdie. By 4:30, everything had changed, the transfusion had worked! Saturday morning she was eating and holding it down, wagging her tail and barking. Sunday we took her home.

Today I’m thankful that God answers prayers.

Nothing completes a room like a dog

With puppies on the brain, I thoroughly enjoyed this article (again from Elle Decor) on Dog Decor. These rooms and dogs are beautiful. What would these rooms/people be without their pets?

This one reminds me of my dear Wiggles and how he LOVES to sleep in my bed. Dachshunds have this crazy compulsion to burrow. It makes for a great foot warmer.

I love this one too. The dog looks like he’s waiting for his beloved owner to return to him.

You can barely find the papillon amidst all that’s going on in this room.

This one resonates. Look at all the beautiful shoes! The pug is guarding them…
