A friend for Zuma..

Jaja, ich habe mich bereit schlagen lassen und Katie hat nur sage und schreibe sechs Wochen gebraucht, um mich davon zu ueberzeugen, dass Zuma einen Freund braucht! Ohje, worauf habe ich mich hier wieder eingelassen? Aber von vorne: Zuma hat sich bei uns super eingelebt und benimmt sich um grossen und ganzen super, vorallem dafuer, dass er noch ein Welpe ist, drei Monate ist er nun alt. Es gibt keine Unfaelle mehr im Haus, er hat aufgehoert, die Fusslatten zu essen und lernt in der Hundeschule eine Menge Tricks. Aber ich hatte immer ein schlechtes Gewissen, dass wir ihn solange durch die Woche alleine lassen und auch am Wochenende sind wir oft unterwegs. Katie wollte ja schon immer zwei Hunde haben, der Plan war allerdings zu warten, bis Zuma groesser ist. Waere da nicht die Hundetrainerin in den Weg gekommen, die beim letzten Training zu uns meinte, je schneller wir einen zweiten Hund bekaemen, desto besser, die Eingewoehnung waere fuer Welpen viel einfacher als aeltere Hunde. Trotzdem waren wir nicht aktiv auf der Suche nach einem zweiten Hund, aber als wir dann gestern in der Tierhandlung waren, hat Katie sich verliebt:

Er ist ein Lab/ Retriever Mix, d.h. er wird riesig! Die Tierhandlung sagte, er waere zwei Monate alt und vor einer Woche auf der Strasse gefunden worden, aber ich verstehe nicht, warum er so winzig ist, als wir Zuma bekommen haben, war er auch zwei Monate alt und dreimal so gross.
Die Namensgebung war mal wieder ein Akt fuer sich, Katie moechte ihn "Cosy" nennen, was angeblich aegyptisch fuer "Loewe" ist, ich nenne ihn zur Zeit noch "Little Guy"...haha.
Zuma liebt seinen neuen Freund, kann seine Kraefte aber noch nicht so einschaetzen und spielt viel zu wild mit ihm, so dass wir die zwei oft in verschiedene Bereiche des Hauses abtrennen muessen. Hier seht ihr, wie Cosy aka Little Guy sich unterm Sofa versteckt und Zuma versucht, an ihn ran zu kommen, es aber nicht wirklich unters Sofa schafft:


Also hoffen wir mal, dass die beiden sich schnell aneinander gewoehnen und sich anfreunden... in ein paar Monaten wird der Kleine groesser sein als Zuma, also mal abwarten. Momentan ist es jedoch ziemlich stressig, aber was hab ich erwartet?:)

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...

Germany

I took a quick trip to Germany over spring break while the boys were on vacation with Katie. My dad had some medical issues over the past year, and it had been almost two years since I went, but a trip that was supposed to be five days in Germany, ended up being only four days because of flight delays. When in Germany for the first time, you HAVE to try Mettbroetchen. Needless to say, she was not a fan haha. A trip down memory lane is always on the agenda for the first day, walking around my village, visiting the homes where I grew up in (which are luckily still owned by my family), visiting my grandparent's graves, and eating all my favorite foods.  My only living grandparent, and one of the main reasons I wanted to go visit. It was so special to spend time with her. We had doener almost every day! Family dinner at my favorite restaurant one night, I absolutely loved how many people were able to join us even though it was very short notice. We also had breakfast at my grandma'...

May iPhone dump

Some pictures to round up on our May! I got this sweet birthday card from my supervisors and director and it made my day. Playdates with friends! I took the boys to the Home Show to visit Katie. Aunt Bri photo bombed their picture! Dentist vibes! We had a fun dinner and swim date with my friend Lindsay and her kids. These two jumped in the pool fully dressed! I loved seeing how well they got along. Finn's Mother's Day Project from school, always funny! They had a cute Mother's Day celebration at school where they served us moms with muffins and coffee, and presented a little poem. My friend Jessica posted this about our random Goodwill date, and I loved her words. For my birthday, I wanted to have a little brunch with my friends, and it was such a perfect morning with my favorite people. Add a baby in the mix, and I was in heaven! Proud mom moment, and this needs a permanent spot for my memories. Fox has worked so incredibly hard this year, I was so worried about him transi...
