The Baetz Family Adventures

Well, it's been a few weeks since I have blogged, so I figured I should give a little update. (I know everyone secretly waits & waits for me to create a new post haha). Let's see if I can remember what we have been up to recently. Two weekends ago we ventured down to Fort Worth for the weekend. (This mama needed to do some shopping). I got the kids some Spring clothes & my cousin a wedding gift. We saw my brother & his girlfriend- which I must point out was the highlight of the visit, in my opinion (that one was for you, Shelby).
We have had some pretty warm days here recently, however our mornings are still pretty chilly. The kids love being outside so we have been able to soak up some much needed sun, ride bikes, & play in the bounce house. The last few days it has been very windy (which I cannot stand) but nice out.

I signed up myself & the kiddos at the local YMCA. I have been going religiously every morning to "work-out". Let me tell you why. In preparation for the upcoming weekend's festivities (my cousin's wedding in Lubbock, TX) I was shopping for some much needed clothes. I pick out what I thought to be a suitable pair of shorts, appropriate length, a size smaller than I had expected, & kind of pricey for my taste. But still I trudge to the dreaded dressing room & try them on. The only word that might do what I saw some kind of justice is D-I-S-G-U-S-T-I-N-G. So, holding back tears I throw them back on their hanger & leave the store. The very next day, my bigger-than-I-would-ever-admit-booty was at the Y getting myself back into shape. And that is exactly where I have been 3 days in a row now. Go me!

After much thought & consideration, we decided to purchase a male Yorkie. He was the perfect little puppy at first, then it happened... (Kind of like when Avery was first born how cute & sweet & perfect she was, fast forward a few months & a diva came out). Well now he is going potty all over the house (thank the Lord we have wood floors because carpet wouldn't handle this mess), he wines when he gets put to bed in his kennel, & he is trying to get milk out of our female Yorkie, Roxy! I asked the vet if she had ever heard of such a thing, she giggled at me. Of course she had.

Meet Bam Bam. Remember The Flintstones? Bam Bam suits him very well. He had his first round of puppy shots this week & we received his registration papers in the mail yesterday. Now, we are waiting to see how big he gets to see if Roxy will be able to breed with him.

Avery is getting 2 molars right now, oh the fussiness! But great, memorable milestones... Oh & I forgot to mention why Avery was pictured in a laundry basket. That is her new hang out spot... her & the dogs will just sit in there & play. It's the cutest thing.

I think that about wraps it up for the Baetz house Adventures the past couple of weeks. Tonight is packing night, for tomorrow we will embark on a new adventure... driving 5 or so hours to Lubbock with a diva 15 month old & a very talkative 5 year old! Wish us luck. Everyone, have a good weekend!!
