Still trying to post photos of TiGGer...

Here are some photos of TiggER from around 4 months old to 5 months old.

The photos are pretty much in order, from her first day up until now.

TiGGer's First Month with us...

Here are some photos, as promised.

TiGGer's current weight: 60lbs

TiGGer's estimated adult weight: 110lbs

WOW! That is a lot of poop!

Halloween

Halloween was so much fun. The kids had a riot. Tons of candy, no shock value there.

I'm impressed that they haven't been asking for it more. I think the key is to let them make themselves sick over it and to let them draw their own conclusions from their sick experiences ... like "candy is not healthy, sugar makes us sick".. love it. I just nod. No wave. And not even an I told you so. I must be maturing as a mother or maybe it was just my monthly cycle kicking in. Full moon? Maybe my new dryer, (that i love so dearly b/c my life no longer revolves around hating laundry) made me a better mom. I'm thinking the latter of the bunch. ;0)

So, back to Halloween. Our night was awesome. Nana and Poppa brought over Vegan Shepard's pie, and a fresh loaf of bread.... and a bottle of red, but that is another story.

Shannon joined us for the evening which always makes things interesting.... again another story.

I think I'll leave the story of Halloween like that. It was a typical Halloween. Trick or treating was split into 2 groups, the boys vs. the girls... and the girls won again. Shannon got spooked by a couple of our neighbors. Maya started out pretty timid. Mommy walked the street with a glass of red in hand... which i highly recommend to all parents for future occasions... and make it any occasion really. And we all met back at the house to feast on candy, chocolate, and chips while playing go fish with the kids. Thankful for the time change this year. Went off with out crusty, cranky, crabby children.

So that is it for that.

Next post I'll be including some photos of the pup. Promise. Our TiGGer has put on 20lbs over 4 weeks. She is a big girl. She is also a very sweet girl. For someone who doesn't like dogs, I think that is saying a lot. I highly recommend her breed to all who are looking for a dog.

Check out Stephen's website when you get the chance.... I've added it to my links.
