Hubba, Bubba, & a Gomer!
Bella Rae & Harley Quinn are our dogs (more like kids with fur) and Gomer Pile is our Cat! This is going to be a page where I can post about them and share pictures of them. With Bella having surgery this will be a place where I post about our "adventure"!

Bella Rae's Journey!
I had a really rough day on Wednesday because I couldn't shake the feeling that the results weren't good and called my sister, who came to Idaho and surprised me to help me feel better! So we decided to all go to dinner, while at the restaurant I got the call, I immediately began to cry and could barely talk with the vet, I didn't care if anyone saw me cry my baby girl had cancer!!!!
So here we are a month and a half past diagnosis and Bella is still fighting, although its taking its toll on her! Everyone has been so nice in asking how she is doing and I am so grateful for the support (again) but its hard! The more I think about it the sadder it makes me! She is Bret & I's first kid, she has been there through so much! I keep thinking back to all the good memories I have of her and how good she has been with Harley and Corbin and that makes me think of how hard this is going to be on all of us! Harley especially where she isn't prepared like we are! I am dreading the day I take her to the vet to say goodbye! I wish I could freeze time and cuddle her forever!
I know that everything happens for a reason, I just wish she could have caught a break!

5 Months Post Op!
Well we went to my mom's house all weekend this last weekend and Bella ran and played a bunch, until mommy said no more today take it easy and then I closed the dog door. Bella had the biggest smile on her face and loved being able to run without being yelled at! Each night we gave her a dose of the metacam and the next day you couldn't even tell she had ran that much. Whenever I see her run lately the song "Free" by Zac Brown Band plays in my head, and it brings tears to my eyes which isn't hard to do lately!
She is my little girl and I am so happy that she is doing so well! She did gain 7 pounds from the date of surgery to Feb 5! So hopefully she can start loosing that now! I will try to get a video of her and post, but we all know how good I am about posting! Harley has been loving having her to run with again. Bella is slower now and Harley beats her if they race but Bella just pounces on her like its nothing at all! That silly little girl!
Lately Bella has taken up cuddling with my belly, she thinks its a head rest! But I love the snuggles! And Harley's hugs are just as good! Both are very welcome after a crazy day at work! Which has gotten better as well, I have a new boss but instead of me doing a lot of the work, Heather does it and I have more of a chance to get everything done that I need. Its wonderful!
I can't thank you all enough for the help and support and the love that you have shown us.
Have a wonderful day!

3 months post op!
Just thought I would let everyone know! Bella is now 3 months out of surgery!!!!! She is doing great! We didn't need x-rays everything is doing well! She thinks she is ready for a marathon some days and other days she feels it! She doesn't really limp anymore except when she gets up from laying too long! She is loving the snow and the holiday season!
We had a gender reveal party a week and a half ago and she is still playing with balloons from the party! Silly girl! She also got a new hot pink collar cause she is gaining a little weight (not too much she is still a healthy weight). You can still tell when it hurts her or bugs her but as of lately that has been only if she sneaks out to run, which is when we go to grandma & grandpa's, or her and Harley play a lot during the day!
Last week her incision site looked a little funny and she had an internal stitch working its way out that had gotten stuck so we got it out! It's looking much better now! Oh and I forgot to say we have been able to start off leash a little bit, but she tends to go nuts so that is limited to once a week at the most, depending on how she handles it! I am getting more worried with it now that the snow is here but I will get past that!
Oh and she is going to have a little brother for anyone wondering! She will be great, I think she will be kind of like nana in Peter Pan! When friends with kids come over she has to see and kiss them. Oh and if they start crying she gets so worried, she went from me to Logan to Christine and back to me and had to know he was okay! Harley on the other had just slept through the crying! It was very interesting!
We also were given a ton of baby stuff and the night we hauled it all into the house they both freaked out but Harley more so, she started shaking and whining in the living room! She is better now, for a couple months anyway! If anyone has some good advice on bringing baby home with dogs and a cat let me know! We are trying a few things to get them used to the baby stuff and after Christmas we are going to set up the nursery so all the baby stuff isn't in the living room!
Thank you all for the love and support!
Merry Christmas!

Day 6 & 7 of thankfulness
Yesterday I was thankful to live in such a wonderful country where I have the right and freedom to make my own choices!
Today I am thankful for nausea medication! Well I will give a real one I guess!
I am thankfully for this little one growing inside me! Can't wait to find out what it is, but I am definitely not so anxious to meet the little one! I'm okay with it baking for about 23 more weeks or so!
