Mommy's been busy, busy....

She's had lots and lots of home safety visits to coordinate for CP...a GOOD thing, it means LOTS of applicants...over 100 already in January in total...she had several all going at one time last week! Plus, she's had a cold/bronchitis for almost 2 weeks again...so she's not felt well. So, she hasn't been a very good secretary for me...but she promises to be better.

I had my semi-annual checkup a couple of weeks ago and was pronouced healthy and not needing a tooth cleaning until 2011!

Hunter was also declared a healthy boy for his annual checkup!!

Mommy will be going to NYC from Feb 15-17 for the Westminster Dog Show with some CP friends...Hunter and me will stay home with dad.

That's about it for now!
