Evolution of a family

Today has been a great day. Dave is home, Delanah woke in a great mood and we had fun, as a family. Bay graduated from yet another puppy school, but I think we got more out of this one. It was re-emphasizing the skills we already know and she did great! The other dog didn't show today so we had a private class! We took a drive to look at some houses afterwards, there are just so many to choose from and so many things to think about! When we bought our current place it was all about us. The commute to work/school and a little yard for me to putter in. Now we're thinking about more kitchen space, play space, rooms for family to come out for extended visits, schools, a yard to play in, room to grow our family...so many things! It can get quite overwhelming and we've only looked at 3 houses! We increased the price range we are looking at and we've gotten a lot more options. I've already seen one house that has everything we're looking for...should be the house, right? I just didn't get the feeling that it was the one for us. We shall see what happens!
After a small snooze in the car we went to one of my favorite parks and let Delanah play. I had to make a quick run and let Delanah and Dave have some playtime alone, I think I need to do that more often. They had such a good time and Dave got to see what I get to see during the week, how independent Delanah has become and how fast she is on her feet now! We discovered a new dog park and Bay had a good run there too. Home for nap time, I got to have some quiet reading time, and then our nightly trip to get the mail.

This is such a fun time for us right now. Delanah is loving being outside and is fascinated by everything. I love seeing things through her eyes!

I am finally feeling better, Delanah is feeling better, I just wish Dave was feeling better. I think he needs another trip to the MD, there's something more than a cold going on there. It's gone on too long and he is in too much discomfort. I don't like the fact that they keep prescribing him things that seem off to me. He's diagnosed with a cold and they prescribe an inhaler?! He's not better the next day, he calls them and without seeing him they prescribe prednisone? Now he's still not better and medicating himself a lot. It's just not sitting right with me.
