Water Boys

Well we all went down to Ashland for Memorial Day weekend and it was a great weekend. One of the things we had planned was to go to the lake and go kayaking. Which we did but we also go to take the dogs. and that was a blast. It was our first time with Brody at the water. So we were not sure what to expect.
Well besides that facct we still had to keep him tied up because we do not trust him yet, he loved loved loved the water. It was great. And it was great watching him.
And I have brought Zac to water many times but he would have nothing to do with it. But as soon as I got into the Kayak and started to take off he ran after me. Not realizing that he was getting into water. But this time he did not seem to mind it and he was in and out the whole time. But as you can see he is magical. He can run on water:):)

Brody was in for a while but the one thing was as soon as he could not reach the bottom he would sink. But I think since he is not at all scacred of the water and he liked being there that we can teach him to swim. I think he was just shocked the first time he could not reach. It was kinda funny. had to laugh at the poor baby.
The best part about this whole day was when we got back to my parents house both dogs were dead to the world. They were soo tired they did not even budge. Can't wait to take them again this weekend....

Well its the middle of May, this month is going by pretty fast. But it still does not even seem like spring. There are a few days once and a while that are really nice but almost every weekend it rains...Whats up with that.
I am almost 23 weeks pregnant. I got to see my little baby up on the US screen again yesterday. That is always amazing to me. And everything looks great. That makes me happy. He is 1 1/2 lbs.
Brody is getting more and more behaved everyday. He is still my "pain in the butt" dog but he is going to be great once he grows up some:):) And besides the jealous whining, ZAC is my little angel... My Boo bear.
So we went to the dog park last weekend and were having a great time. Running around, playing with other dogs, chasing sticks and balls. Brody gets a little tired, imagine that. And he is chillin under a tree. When all of a sudden a black bird starts to dive bomb him. Brody just kind of stood there looking around. I think he was too tired to actually do anything. This happened about 15 times. It was one of the funniest things ever. I wish I had my camera. Everyone at the park was laughing. I realized later there was probably a nest of babies in the tree he was under and that is why it was happening. But it was just soo funny seeing this big strong dog get attached by a tiny bird..
So for all yo u dog people I have a question about Brody. He has started chewing and licking his paw to the point where its raw and pus is coming out. Should I take him to the vet or is there something I can do to prevent it from getting worse. And why do they do this?
We did put on some neosporan and wrap it up last night. But that was the saddest thing I have ever seen. It was like he was completely broken. He all of a sudden could not walk on his leg. He was hiding because he was embarrassed. He came and layed on my lap with his head hidden. And every time he stood up he tried to kick it off. Again i should have taken a picture but did not have my camera close enough. I need to get in the habit.
Well thats about it for now. Hopefully soon I will get into the camera habit and add some photos. until then enjoy and have a wonderful week...

Ok ok ok here I am.....

I did not even notice the comments that I was getting on my last blog saying how bad I have been. Its not like I do not have the time to do this. I have plenty of time, I just do not have all the cool pics to put on here. But I will give it another shot. A lot of it was I did not want to jinx myself.
Ok an update since Feb...
Ok the first thing which probably most of you already new is that I am pregnant. I am 20 weeks now and I am super excited. I have about 4 more months though. I am having a baby boy, which is also very exciting since there are no boys in this family and Dave does not have a family. I would post pics of the US but I do not think everyone really wants to see that. But I do have them if you want to see. The baby's name will be Andrew Jordan Spangler. Due September 14, 2007. So please any suggestions or advice I am open since this is all new to me... oh and so far so good this time. I am praying for things to be ok....

As for my lovely dogs, they are the best. Well for the most part. Brody has calmed down a bit, I think he will turn out to be a great dog. He is sleeping in his own bed or on the couch for the most part. But hey as long as he is not in our bed. Zac is still Zac, cute, sweet, cuddly, and jealous...
Things are going well for Dave and I. I am super ready for it to be nice out so we can BBQ more and just be outside. Our pool will open the end of May, I am looking forward to that.
Oh and Dave and I did a huge project on the house. We installed laminet flooring. It was a long pain in the butt, but well worth it. It looks awesome. I should have done it years ago.
And I also started to work on my wedding scrapbook, we got married in November. But at least I am working on it and much more motivated. Its looking good.
I will try my best to keep up on my blog. Sorry guys...
