Maynard

Ok, It has been over a month since I have posted, so here is what is new at the Piper house. We have a new child. His name is Maynard and he is a chocolate lab. He is 9 weeks old, and he is pretty big for his age. He has a cone head that we are hoping he will grow into. I will post pictures later. My camera has been in surgery so I will have to take some now that I have it back. Ellie is not so excited about her little-big bruder. He is already three times her size and of course is full of energy. He wants to play with her soooo bad, but she is scared. I can understand why. He is clumsy and rough and he barks at her like she is a toy. What else.... We just got home saturday from a full week at the beach! It was awesome. We went parasailing, and we rented jet-skis, we saw dolphins, and sharks and manna rays, and sting rays and we stuffed our faces. It was good for us to just have some stress-free time together. I guess that is all for now. It is lunch time, and I am hungry, and my belly won't let me focus on what I am writing.
