Ok Ok You Got It!

Ok so you got it everyone. I finally did a Blog. I have no idea what you want me to write or talk about but here you go. Here is my first post for you. Most Blogs I see are used to post pictures of peoples kids but since I don't have that I will use this first Blog to post my baby Baxter.





Baxter when we first got him



I got Baxter for my birthday almost two years ago and he has definitely been a handful. But worth it. My family and Matt surprised me two years ago for my birthday so I had no idea that I was getting a puppy. He is full of energy and constantly getting into things. I hear that is how a two year old kid is so it is good practice for me. He isn't the smartest dog when it comes to what he should or should not eat. A few months ago he got into the bathroom cupboard and ate a bar of soap. He was pretty sick for 24 hours but once he got it out of him he was ok. Then a couple weeks ago Matt was grilling some sausage and one fell out of the pan. As it is still sizzling Matt is trying to grab it faster then Baxter but if you know Baxter he is the quickest dog when he sees food. It is gone in a split second. So the sausage is sizzling and the dog just swallows it. Of course his entire mouth gets burned and he is very sick. So again another night of cleaning up throw up and taking him outside to go number two every few minutes. And I thought a dog would be easy. Just a fun pet to have around to play with. Noone told me there would be worked involved.
He has been a total excitement for us though and we totally love him. If we ever have to sell our place we will for sure buy a new one or rent a place that can have pets because I could not let him go. Yes it is true I have fallen into one of those pet people who can't live without their pets. But come on isnt he just dang cute (well besides his barking)!
