so sorry little beck...

I know it's been a couple days since my last post- I was banned from the computer because I was a naughty dog. You would think that I would have learned my lesson, but Saturday afternoon I decided that I was mad at Emma and ate one of Beckett's socks. I know I'm targeting my anger at Beckett's belongings. So Beckett- I'm sorry. This post is for you. Look how cute you are!

We went to the vet's office again this morning to check on me since I've eaten a sock and haven't pooped in a week. They checked me out and sent me home. I really like everyone at my vet. I go to Independence Veterinary Clinic and everyone there is so great! They've called to check on me and have been very helpful. Emma called them this afternoon...and it was a little embarrassing. The only reason she called was to tell them that I pooped. She sounded so excited too.

I wasn't able to go, but Emma said she needed to get out of the house and socialize with some friends this morning after we got home from the vet. She and the boys met lots of friends at the park and had a picnic. They said they had a fun time. Well if you get a chance to watch tomorrow night, Fox news at 10 is going to be covering a story about Music Together, a music class that Emma and the boys plan on attending this summer. The teachers asked us to come join while they film tomorrow- so you might catch a glimpse of them!

Going once, going twice....

Thanks to everyone for the supportive comments- I'm feeling much better today and enjoyed hearing all my get well wishes. Today has been a good day.

I'm still feeling sort of yucky, but have started feeling better throughout the day. I even barked at Kristie when she and Norah came over!

I guess since I'm feeling better, I should get back to my job---writing about those cute Joersz boys. Emma and the boys went to downtown Waxhaw this afternoon to take pictures of our little friend Norah. Of course Emma couldn't resist taking some pictures of Colton & Beckett.
Well before I go to bed, I just wanted to let you know that I'm auctioning off my all too famous bib. Post a comment if you'd like to make a bid! Have a good night!

what did i eat...

Well, it has been a long night, and I'm still really groggy, but I am home and hopefully starting to get better. I'm very thankful that Dr. Michelle and Dr. Bart stayed late to do my surgery, otherwise I would have had to go to the doggy emergency room! Emma picked me up around 9 last night and slept downstairs with me. She took me out to go to the bathroom at 1:30 this morning....what was she thinking?! So I bet you're wondering what I could have eaten...it was a Beckett bib. Beckett is the messiest eater in Union County, so his messy bib was pretty irresistable to me. Well-there's an update on me. And here's a cute picture of Cole at lunch yesterday- he makes us smile when we need a smile!

yucky weather, yucky day

I've had the worst day. I've been to the vet twice and the second time they kept me there. Apparently I've eaten something that is stuck in my stomach and so right now as Emma types this for me, I'm in surgery. Who knew that I would be having SURGERY today? Anyways- I just wanted to let you all know how I was doing. Please pray for me and that everything goes well. Dr. Michelle told me that Emma's going to come pick me up and take me home after the surgery. I'm excited to get home.

a game of tag...

i forgot that i had one more blog to write tonight....and then i think i'll be done for a while! here's my 7 interesting or wierd facts about emma (since she was tagged, not me...)

1). She really hates tupperware. She uses it a lot, but is always saying how much she dislikes it. I guess because she loses tops and the tupperware cabinet above the microwave is always a mess. (Where do lost tupperware lids go??)
2). She is ridiculously scared of spiders. She screams and acts very childish whenever she sees one. She has gotten better with tiny ones, but those big ones are no fun she says. I would just eat them if I were her....
3). She is very entertained by teenage girly movies. If she didn't have to help me write these blogs, that's what she would have been doing tonight while Jon is out (He's at the basketball game tonight- lucky!)
4). She's horrible at laundry. She wants to be better at it one day, but just can't seem to find the time/ desire to finish a load once it's started. I like to eat socks.
5). Jon's first gift to her was 3 angel fish. And she killed them within a couple weeks. I think she's a good pet owner, though.
6). She really likes sitting by campfires and talking with friends.
7). She's bad at thinking of things to write about herself. I told her she was tagged and we needed to write a blog....but she took a couple days to figure out what to write. Silly Emma.

OK, I will tag:
Lacey and her new blog!
Riley
Mandy
& Kristie

a haircut and lots of blogs...read on!

Before we get to the haircut...let me tell you that I've been upstairs blogging for about 3 hours now! I had a lot of catching up to do...so I've done 6 new blogs tonight. Phew! Almost done now! I hope that you enjoy all the new pics and stories about my family. We've had a busy couple weeks and I just haven't had a chance to get up here and work on the computer. Plus, I have a really bad hot spot right now and it's making me not feel very good. I knew that Riley would probably be checking up on the blog tonight, (with her high speed internet and all...) so I thought I'd get it done.

So...obviously you can see from this picture that little Beck got his first haircut today. He just got a little trim because it was starting to get in his eyes. Those Joersz boys sure do have a lot of hair as babies! Beckett chewed on his toys while Emma cut his hair and he did quite well until the end when he wanted to get out of the seat. For some reason Cole started crying when we put Beckett in the seat and got out the scissors. Guess he was sorry for Beckett because he doesn't like to get a haircut...? Who knows! But here's an after shot of Beckett's new do!

picnic at the park and a clean truck

This last week had beautiful weather for a picnic, so Thursday's lunch was spent outside with Cameron & Katy from across the street and their friend David (on the left). They ate lunch and then had a fun time playing at the park. Cole is getting more comfortable playing with other kids lately. He likes to take in everything around him and then go for it. He's had a lot of fun playing with Cameron lately, which is great since he's right across the street!

Jon took off work last friday and this friday (days that had to be used by the end of March...) and we've had so much fun having him home. We've gone on lots of walks (which I love...) and the boys have had lots of daddy time. Yesterday, while Beckett was napping, Jon and Cole went out front and cleaned out Jon's tool box in the back of his truck. Cole just loved this time. They threw away stuff and organized things and Cole was a lot of help (really!) It was very cute to watch them. I sat and watched them from my regular spot in the front yard.
