Wednesday Wonders v.9

These are just a few things that [mostly] have made me really excited the past week.5....

1. this pretty piece of art reminiscent of the ones i showed you here. 
lynzie posted this on my facebook and i think it's awesome. of course, neither
of us can take credit for this, but i am unsure of the site it came from! 

2. got this from Nick's dad for Christmas, and we have basically 
been playing it non stop since the 25th... we've already beat 2 years
and are well on our way to beating the third!

3. this pretty picture of candles that i took a long time ago. i recently 
found this on my computer and liked it!

4. NEW jeans. i love getting new jeans.

5. screen cap of my Google homepage. I love that you can change the skins, now.
This one is so pretty!

6. don't forget about the giveaway! only three more days to get your entries in :)

7. almost 100 readers... just ONE away! this makes me really happy + thankful!

8. lastly, this is Guillermo. you all know him, right? i talk about him enough.
anyways, yesterday we took him to the vet to get his leg checked out before we begin
physical therapy. well. it turns out that they found something peculiar in his
belly when they did the xray.... a twisty tie. this is actually pretty serious, after considering
the ridiculous fact that he decided it was a delicious snack... it has potential for puncturing his
intestine, and if we aren't careful (this means giving him the correct foods to make it safe
to travel through his system) then he may have to have another surgery. 

please say some prayers/send us good thoughts!

Guillermo + Physical Therapy

I am really excited because I just got off the phone with Guillermo's doctor, and while his incision is healing up really well, he is still not using his leg at all. She gave me some awesome tips to help get him learning about his leg again, and ALSO told me about a great place here in Cincinnati that offers Aquatic Fitness for dogs. Apparently, it's a resort/spa for dogs, and they have a huge swimming pool:



Here, they can attach floats to our little guy, and get him swimming and using full range of motion in his bad leg. The doctor told me that since they took away the source of pain, the only problem he is having is remembering how to use his leg. This place is pretty expensive (about $50 per half hour of swim time) but I really, truly think it's worth it, otherwise there would have been no reason to get the surgery. 

I can't wait to talk Nick into it (hehe) and get Guillermo mobile, again! 

Happy Black Friday, all!! <3
