Children...

I don't want them to grow up too quickly and miss what being young and carefree is all about.
I want them to enjoy it all. But being their mom, I want to be part of their enjoyment too...So far so good.

Head games

I'm so pleased with my three little feathered friends. They are laying eggs daily, big fat eggs. I thought maybe this foul (ha ha) weather might put them off but not a chance. 


Puppy class was great fun yesterday. Even though our recall skills are hit and miss- and I say 'ours' because Cadi isn't totaly to blame for her stuborness- and we freaked some poor insecure woman out with  a rottwieler, we still had fun. We got to do some agility training. Since Cadi is still only 8 months old, she got to jump over  little cross jump and thought it was pretty fun. We did lots of weaving and leg work and then went home and slept for the rest of the day.
It exhausted both of us.




So, I am on day 16 of the head ache. I've been to the doctor three times and am on the third type of pill to try to ease the ache. He didn't really have much hope for this last pill but he wants to rule out migrains before he sends me off to a specialist. 
Headaches are really boring. I have things to do, places to go and friends to see and children to take care of and this is slowing me down. 
I don't like ths game.

Puppy Class


10 weeks later and this is all she thought of puppy class! She was given a little pink  (well she is a girl) rosette last night and she promptly ran off with it to chew it to bits. She actually fought me for it but I did win in the end and managed to attach it to her puppy bag. 

I was pleased to have taken her to the classes in the end as I have taught her to be pretty obedient when we are out in the fields around our house. Though maybe the pocket full of treats has something to do with that as well. We would have managed the sits and stays by out selves but it's fun to do it all with other pups and people.

I have yet to teach her Not to steal the loo roll and My socks and her new trick is to shred the mail that has our names on it that we usually burn. Now I have my own live shredder. Though picking up manky wet clumps of paper off the hall carpet is not my idea of a good time. She'll learn, won't she??
