October

Sunday, October 11, 2009

So far, October is going okay. I broke my foot, we got a new dog, lots of appointments, decorating for Halloween...that's what is going on here. I go to a neurologist on Tuesday for my dizziness and blurred vision episodes. Next week the dog goes to the vet and the week after I go back to the orthopedic surgeon for my foot. Right now we are in the process of decorating a little bit for Halloween. I'm hoping to take Lukas to the pumpkin patch sometime soon. If we don't make it there, I guess we will just buy a pumpkin from the grocery store. The past few days, Lukas has had a little bit of a cold but he seems okay otherwise. Other than actually taking naps, he's been his normal little self. The dog is doing pretty good too other than a few accidents in the house here and there. I'll try to update after my neurologist appointment if I find anything new out.

Might Be Adding to the Family ;)

This weekend we decided we are ready to make a new addition to the family. Maybe not exactly what you are thinking but we want a puppy dog. We've decided we want to try to find a silky terrier or a yorkie...or possibly a hybrid mix with one of the two or both. I have always wanted a dog but have horrible, horrible allergies. I actually held a silky terrier and spent a little time with one at a pet store over the weekend and wasn't bothered at all by him. There's no way we were spending what the store wanted for him. So the search is on for the perfect dog for our family. I'm hoping to find one to adopt soon but don't want to rush into it.

Meanwhile, I finally got an appointment with a neurologist but don't go until October. Speaking of October, Halloween will be here before we know it! I think I'm going to dress Lukas as a pirate again (he was a pirate for his first halloween) because he is really good at saying, "Arr!" haha! Heck, and if we find a dog before then, we'll dress him/her up too!

Happy Halloween!

The day didn't start off so great but it ended well. This morning my husband took my car to work (he only had to go in for a very short time this morning and was off the rest of the day) and he got a flat tire. Last Sunday I had a flat too and we got it fixed. Two flats in one week...is that a record? When my husband took the car to get a new tire, they informed him that my car has some issues and needs over a thousand dollars worth of work done to it. Plus, I know I am going to be due for some other pretty expensive maintenance. So, we are debating on whether or not to get it fixed or to just trade it in for something else. My car has 120,000 miles on it and a few years ago we were in a pretty serious accident that almost totalled the car so it's not like we haven't driven it into the ground or anything. So...happy halloween my car is starting to crap out on me :(

I took Lukas outside to play this morning. He insisted on wearing his costume so I let him and snapped a few pictures. Later on, we took him trick or treating at an outdoor shopping center. Lukas had a blast! I didn't get very many pictures but he was the cutest little biker ever!
