R.I.P. Toby Dog

This past Monday we lost a dear member of the family - Toby Tide Teeple Mountjoy. He had been battling cancer and some tumors for quite sometime and it finally just became too much for him. He was 13 1/2 years old. I got him when I graduated from college so he has been with me my entire adult life. We are very sad but also relieved that he is no longer in pain. He was a great pet and family member and will be deeply missed by all.

Finally a new post!

We have been having so much fun watching Sarah grow up that I have neglected stopping and posting. September was a fun month. We visited Animal Kingdom, played at Noah's house and celebrated Thomas' and Gary's birthdays. Sarah is very "busy" and loves exploring and talking. Most of what she says is her own language but she does have a decent vocabulary. She can say Mommy, DaDa, NeeNee, Poppa, bubbles, ball, Ali, Izzy, boat, pretty, Barbara(her teacher), car, doggie, duckie, baby and I am sure I am leaving out a few others. She seems to be pretty good eater, when she wants to eat. Sometimes she is just too busy or too tired. She is still sleeping very well through the night - about 12 hours. She has her 15 month appointment later this month so we will check her stats at that time. Here are few pics.
