My babies....

I know I have menitioned at least of few of my beautiful babies, and have even added a few photos of them, but I thought I would show all my babies, from oldest to youngest.
Obie 11. He was my dad's dog, but when my dad got sick we brought him in and when my dad died, we couldn't separate him and Coco. Haracts, and might be losing his heare is an Apricot Standard Poodle. His favorite thing to do, besides playing with Coco and barking at the mailman and scaring the UPS man, is keeping an eye on Athena when she is allowed to explore(she is still very small).
Yuenging 8 August 30th. My first baby, and my birthday present when I turned 17. He loves to headbutt you and stick hiss really excited butt in your face. When he gets really excited he drools a little.
PT was almost 6 when he died in January. He will always be in my heart and greatly missed by his father & I and his siblings, especially his "twin" brother, Chester. I got Pt for my high school graduation present from my mom.
Chester 6. PT's "twin". I got him in August and PT got jealous. I noticed their birthdays were only a few weeks apart so I called them my twins. Chester is also known as Houdini, as he is a master escape artist. He is half Siamese.
Lily 5. Lily was my very first daughter. Shets like a is very spoiled, acts like a Princehan herss, and has an attitude bigger than herself. She is a total Mommy's girl or Mommy's little Princess as we like to call her.
Coco 5 September 7th. She was Paul's baby first, but quickly crawled her way into my heart. She now loves her mommy more than her daddy, but is a little scared of Athena (she thinks she might hurt Athena accidently). She is a Red Nose Red Devil Pit Bull. She is a kisser not a bitter, as long as you leave her toes alone, but do you blame her?
Athena 7 months. She loves to purr her mommy asleep at night, and explore the house. She is atleast half Bengal. Her favorite place to sleep is on mommy's head. She hates that mommy went back to school since she has to stay in the bedroom when noone is home to keep her safe (we are afraid she might get hurt, since she isn't full grown yet).

Been a little busy....

I know it's been awhile since I last posted, but I have been going through a lot. Last September my grandfather died while I was taking care of him, from Stage 4 Lung Cancer. After Thanksgiving I found out my poor little PT had Hyperthyroidism, in December found out he also had Carcinoma, and in January I had to put my poor little baby boy down since he could no longer walk and I didn't want him to suffer any longer. I obviously was a depressed wreck for awhile just from my grandfather passing, but PT dying pushed me even farther into a deep depression with crazy anxiety. I started going to therapy and a grieving group at my church. January 31st, a week and two days after Pt's death he sent me a sweet little angel to help me cope. My little girl Athena is at least part Bengal, and has a little of Pt's personality along with some of Coco, Lily, Yuengling, Chester, and Obie mixed in with her own unique personality. We named her right, for she is very bright. I spent February trying to pull myself back together, March in the hospital, April starting to plan a wedding, and started going to school for Medical Assistant with Phlebotomy. It is now 29 days until my wedding and I am starting to panic, but then I look at Athena and she calms me down, just like PT could. I would like to add that I am knitting again, but only a little.
