We're Getting Another One??

It's one thing to prepare a child for the upcoming arrival of a little brother but how do you explain to a Chocolate Lab that's she's about to be traumatized loved by a second little boy in just a few weeks?

I wish I had patience like Bella. She deserves to be fed fillet Mignon from a golden platter for the way she loves our boy. Unfortunately there is no way I can explain to her that a second round of love is coming her way. But until Andrik comes home, Bella is going to have to continue to be loved by just one little boy in this house.

Time for Bella's annual physical examine.

Don't let it get to you Bella, you don't want to see what he'll do if your blood pressure is elevated.

Yes my son is shirtless and wearing slippers in July.

A scalpel? Is that really necessary?

Luckily for Bella, Artem likes to finish off the examine with a tasty treat.

The patient got a clean bill of health and a Band aid and she has a few more weeks until the next "doctor" arrives.
