Morro playing in the snow

Morro is already 10 weeks old and growing by the second! At 16 pounds, it won't be too much longer until he's bigger than Carter.

More pictures of Carter

Carter discovered that it's more fun to play in boxes than it is to try and eat them...although, he still enjoys chewing on cardboard to sooth his teething gums. January 8, 2007

It's finally winter here and boy is it cold!

Grandpa Flory came for a visit and had a wonderful time playing with Carter. He's back at work now, but wanted to make use of frequent flyer miles to come see us while he had the chance. Of course, Grandma Flory would have loved to have been here also. She's getting around better now, but still using a wheelchair and not yet ready to climb our stairs. I'm sure she would love to try for a chance to see Carter though. January 13, 2007

I love bath time...he's just so darn cute!


"Hey, how did you do that? I saw you grab this handle, how come it isn't working!?"

The New Puppy Has Arrived!

My guys (1/7/07)

We picked up our adorable lab on Saturday (1/6/07) and are adjusting to life as dog owners. He is super cute and does very well around Carter. Of course, I'm right there to make sure he doesn't nip at Carter. They enjoy each others toys (probably more than their own) and are similar in many ways. They both think that anything they can get to that's not a toy belongs in their mouth...chew toys are only for chewing if there's nothing else around. Neither are potty trained, although puppy is doing very well with it so far (thank God Carter has diapers ;-). They both seem to grow at exponential rates too. I think this was a good decision and look forward to watching them become the best of friends. Oh...and we named our darling little puppy Morro, after Morro Bay, CA. Cory and I had originally agreed on the name Jake (same as choosing Carter's name, it was the only name we agreed on) until Cory mentioned Morro. We decided to go for something unique that reminds us both of a favorite place.
