The Joys of Dog-Ownership!

So we have a funny story to tell! Last Thursday we decided to go to the park as a family--which was so much fun--and we even took Cougar with us. But Isaac's car seat is in my car, so we decided to fold the other seat down and let Cougar go between the trunk and the back of the seat. Well, Taylor told me that if he starts sniffing really hard, to tell him so he could pull over. Well, I thought he was about to poop, but it was a fake, so I thought, because two seconds later I saw that he was about to poop and before Taylor could believe me and pull over, he pooped. And it was a lot and apparently he felt a lot better after he pooped because he came galloping back to the front--YEP--right through his poop!!! JOYS of DOG OWNERSHIP, right?! It was actually REALLY funny. I kept laughing. Luckily I had some napkins in the car and while I was trying to hold Cougar, Taylor cleaned up the poop.

Once we cleaned it up, well, to the best of our ability for the time, we couldn't put Cougar back in the back or else he would walk through some of the poop again...so....Taylor decided to hold him...and I couldn't resist documenting this funny experience!

SO.......once we finally made it to the park......:-) ......we had such a great time! Isaac swung on his first swing and LOVED it! We had just had dinner, so I was a little worried about letting him swing too long in the event of getting sick, so after a few minutes I tried to take him out and he cried and wanted right back in the seat, so sure enough, we put him back in and he was a happy camper!

We took a lot of pictures at the park, so enjoy!









It was so fun! I am so glad we went and it was SO fun to be there as a family!

Haha funny, yet gross story. I love the pictures of Issac swinging, but I'm sorry to say Val, Issac is really starting to look like Taylor's twin! Wow!

Your dog is getting really big! I'm glad Moxie has never pooped in the car! That's a funny, and yucky, story!

Oh man, that is seriously GROSS! Haha. Talon and I will never have a dog because Talon is so allergic...but I also think we could not handle the poop because we're too high maintenance when it comes to stuff like that, ha! Oh, and thank you for your super sweet comment on my blog! :) I take that as a huge compliment since that was mid-decision on what I wanted to do on the table for fall, so it was kind of a jumble of all my ideas at once.

I love watching your family. You remind me of us about 9 years ago--especially the Isaac part of your family! Don't you just love being together?

By the way, potty training coming up so get ready for more of the making-a-mess-then-stepping-in-it.:)
