Yesterday Jamie and I took our dog, Piper, over to swim in my in-laws pool.  Let me explain something before posting these pictures, the pool (any pool or place with lots of water for that matter) is Piper’s Happy Place.  We all have a said “Happy Place”, the place that we day dream about when we cannot escape reality, well the pool is hers.

Swimming wears Piper out big time!!  She will literally go and go until we force her to leave; at which point she normally gives us puppy dog eyes and we stay for a little while longer.  I cave easily, what can I say…  She swims and chases two water toys most of the time that we are at the pool; she will retrieve either of them regardless of how many times we throw it and if she is really lucky Jamie will “race” her to them.  It is really entertaining to watch, and Jaime is usually a good sport letting her win.

Sunday afternoon, Jamie and I went to my dear friends house for lunch, to hang out and as a bonus we got to play with her adorable son, L.  He is almost 8 months old and irresistible!!  I could watch this kid ALL day, no joke.  Right now he is making all kinds of faces, which are so cute, and he is giving kisses.  The kisses are a little wet but could you resist this little one?

I told you he was cute didn’t I?

These were the faces, both shocked and excited, of our parents…

When we told them about this little one…

Baby Perreault is scheduled to arrive in late January or in early February, if all of the predictions of our family members are correct!!!
