He is watching us

I'm going to make a confession...we aren't the best at saying prayers as a family, we usually say dinner prayers and pray before Mikey leaves on a trip. Little did we know that Brigham really is paying attention. About 2 weeks ago Brigham and I sat down for lunch, before I could get any food in his mouth he folded his arms and started jabbering!! Ever since then he does it all the time!! We went to Ihop the other day and he was doing it there :) It was just a little reminder that even though he is only 14 months old he is watching, and noticing what we are doing. He is a special little boy and teaches me new things every day.

Here are a couple videos I caught him praying in...

Update in Lucy...she is doing fantastic!! It took a couple days but she is back to her normal self! YAY!!

I'm a horrible person!!


So today I went to lunch with a friend. I put Lucy in our laundry room and left. 2 hours later returned and Lucy was stuck in a cord behind the dryer, it was wrapped around her belly pretty darn tight! She had pooped all over herself and was bleeding. I freaked out!! I didnt know what to do, finally I calmed down enough to grab her neck and start twisting her to get her untangled. I knew something was wrong, she wasn't walking at all. I got Brigham in the car again and sped towards the vet's office. What is normally a 20 minute drive I turned it into a 5 minute drive! They took her back and the dr. said she had feeling in her legs and that her back wasnt broken, they needed to keep her there for a few hours to massage her legs and make sure she starts walking again.

All I could think about (and still think about) is how long she was there, and if I wouldnt have chatted for so long with my friend would it have been better? I feel so bad, she looked at me and was so scared and in so much pain, I felt soooo bad!

The dr called and gave me good news, she was walking on her own, but had a little bit of bloody discharge. They gave her a few medications and sent her home. She definitely isn't her normal self. Hopefully she gets back to normal, and starts driving me nuts again with her energy :)
