Let's not forget about our first love.

Before there was baby, there was puppy. And we absolutely love our puppy.

But because baby is currently suffering a major rash*, puppy has not been given much attention lately.

Nonetheless, puppy deserves serious kudos because last weekend he single-handedly retrieved his first duck! Prior to Saturday, Jaeger had only successfully retrieved with Matt's strategic assistance. Then this past weekend, Matt, Matt's Dad, and Jaeger hit the creek for a morning of duck-hunting. Sure enough, Matt's Dad flushed a black duck, Matt shot him down, and Jaeger scooped him up and brought him to his master! Way to go, Jaeger!

No worries, while Jaeger was reveling in the high life, Henry was indoors enjoying a proper spoiling from his Grandma. 

It's an understatement to say that these boys love their time spent on the farm.

*Rash update: Henry's rash is clearing up. Thanks to a lot of advice and concern from friends, family, and medical professionals, we determined that Henry possibly reacted to the Amoxicillin, but most likely the rash was due to the antibiotic flushing the virus out of little bear's system. Because his rash was not actually hives, the likelihood that he is allergic to penicillin is low (yipee!). Thank you to everyone who helped us better understand the little guy's rash. And thank God for our healthy, and as always, happy baby!
