Okay, so we used to send Slider to the groomer to get a full bath, dry, brush out, nail trim, and ear clean every six weeks. Then we had a baby, and we started slacking. I still trim her toenails every other week, but you can forget the rest. In November we discovered that ourContinue reading “Slider’s Day of Pampering”

I love having a birthday. This birthday was extra special (or so I kept telling everyone) because I turned 29 on the 29th. That’s a golden birthday, in case you were wondering.

JT just loves getting his tooth brushed. He opens wide when he sees the little finger brush coming. It’s nice not to have to battle that twice a day. We’ll see how compliant he is when he’s five and it’s more like a chore. Here’s a Flip Clip of brushing in action: This week JTContinue reading “Mmmmm, toothbrush!”
