Isn't our Bichon Frise cute?

Hi, It is January 19,2006 already! Well, I never got the pictures of our house on here sorry. But our daughter got a picture of our new puppy Dakota on, isn't he cute. He is a tiny Bichon Frise we got after Christmas. He is almost 11 weeks old and getting used to his crate but still having accidents in our house! Anyone with ideas on how to housetrain a puppy please share your ideas with us. We would greatly appreciate any advice. Also advice on how to get cats to take to him too would be appreciated. We now have plenty of pets in our household. Most are in cages or aquarium. OK. Bye.

It's our puppy Dakota!!

New Year Already!

Lindsey reporting for Down by the Crick newspaper - This new year as gone off to a good start for the family. We were home for New Years and of course stayed up until 12:00. Unfortunately the 2 girls had school on the 2nd even though Dad took vacation for work. Lately we have been having fun with our new puppy Dakota. He is currently 9 weeks old and went to the vet on Wed. We are slowly getting him used to his crate and are house training him.

Yesterday we were kinda busy. We went to a basketball game at 11:00 because Kristina had to cheer for it. Afterwards we went to Debbie's for pizza. Then we went to the east end to do a little shopping and returned home around 2:30. Mom watched the Redskins game which they won 17-10. We did a few things around the house, but other than that we didn't do much last night.

This morning a few things have happened. Lindsey has been busy cleaning Sidney's cage and giving him a bath. Also she vacuumed her room and updated their geocaching.com account. Kristina also cleaned Carmel's cage. This afternoon, the family plans on going ice skating and possibly giving Dakota his first bath. Coming soon will be up-to-date pictures once the picture software is downloaded and future updates. This is Lindsey, signing off.
