A Little Humor

I've been meaing to post each of these separately for a while. Instead you get them all at once.

Bump Update

Here are a couple of photos of my progressing tummy. In addition to this growth, I am also experiencing swelling in my hands and feet (predominantly feet) that is quite unpleasant. I'm drinking lots of water and elevating my feet when possible, but it looks like I'm just one of those folks to retain water and swell even before the last few weeks of pregnancy. Oh joy!

22 Weeks - 1/22/09

(Don't mind my fleece pants and slippers. I was needing comfy clothes that night.)

24 Weeks - Today
(Yes, I'm wearing the same shirt. And the truth of the matter is that I'm now wearing the fleece pants and slippers from the first photo.)

The Most Fantastical Bone EVER

My grand-dad decided a couple of weeks ago to bring me something, a ham bone! It was absolutely phenomenal! Never you mind that the house smelled like ham for quite some time. It was worth every sniff (and lick and snort and bite)!

Thanks, grand-dad!

Snicker-Poodle-Poos & Apple Pie Treats

Hello, Coco here. My daddy is amazing! And by amazing, I mean ah-maze-ing! He's started making me homemade organic treats. Yippee!

His first batch was of Snicker-Poodle-Poos, a delicious doggie version of snickerdoodles. But be forewarned, though these smell amazing, they taste to humans a bit too much like rice and not like a cookie. For us dog on the other hand, they are fantastic! One of my fellow canines has decided he doesn't like his other treats anymore. And another has started doing new tricks for these treats.

His second batch was of Apple Pies. Don't worry, these don't actually come in pie format; they're just like a little cookie. But they are ever so delicious, and I obey quite well when one of these is offered.

To make these treats in a cost-effective way, daddy's grinding his own oat and rice flours. What a guy!
