Chauncey the Chauncinator and the Chloe Bug

Our new babies (English Springer Spaniels).... boy did we sign on for a wild ride with these two!


We have Chloe... she's such a love bug!

And we have our Chauncey! He is a survivor... the runt... now a chunk!

Madeline loves them! When they are out in the entry way, she goes up to her baby gate and says "Up! Up!" She wants to get in there and race around with them!

She tells them to sit, too and enjoys giving them biscuits. I once caught her feeding them mass quantities of biscuits through their pen. She thought she was doing such a good thing by feeding those hungry puppies. They probably thought this little short girl is alright!


The pictures with Madeline on Grammy and Papa's couch were taken before we brought them home. They were still so sweet and not getting into nearly the amount of trouble that they get into nowadays.

Just the other night, Tuesday, as a matter of fact, Aaron had to search for 50 minutes for Chauncey because he decided to chase a rabbit. Chloe was bopping around the neighbors yard... she must have lost her brother in the chase. They were only out for about 5 minutes by themselves when they decided to boogie.... Wonderful, right?

We were freaked!


But anyways, we're all in love with them...

Madeline has been doing really good with them chewing and biting - she tells them "NO!" And she gets right up if they try to lick her in the face... Eww! Mommy freaks out about that... (as shown in the top picture, blaaaah... yucky!)


These little ones certainly are something... A chore, awesome, fun, trouble, hilarious, irritating but ya gotta love 'em.
