Leilani


Miss Leilani had some minor surgery yesterday. We had her officially "fixed" and she had a hernia repaired. To say the least she has been a little slower than usual. I have never seen her so mild. It made me wonder what it would be like to have a dog that just laid around! Yesterday she hardly moved from her bed upstairs when we brought her home-rightly so (I don't think I would want to move either)! However, she woke up around 4:00 this morning and trotted into my room and nudged my hand to let us know she was ready to get back to her routine. After being let outside for a second she went straight downstairs to her kennel and wanted to be let in :) For all of those Leilani lovers out there, know that she is back to her old self: giving me "the look" when Cole is crying and following me around everywhere, including into the bathroom. Here are some pictures, which are usually hard to get because she won't sit still (ignore the rash, we're treating that too)! I know she looks horrible-she felt it. We've got some great meds and a little TLC and she'll be back to jumping around and driving me crazy!

I am sorry she wasn't feeling well(of course, I wouldn't either). I am happy to here she is doing well and that I am not the only person in the world whose dog won't let me go to the bathroom alone=)Give her a pat for me and I hope she feels much better now.

Oh poor dog. One time Benson was sick, but he didn't really act sick--he was just calm and slept a lot. I really liked it--but I was sad that he was sick. I wish he would just chill out sometimes. I don't know how you can handle a dog and a baby. If Jeff ever wants a dog we'll have to wait until all the kids can take care of themselves.
