So Precious!.......................

Friday, Daniel's parents were coming in from Colorado to meet our sweet little boy for the first time. They were so excited to meet their first and only grandchild! So, Daniel and I were really busy, before they arrived, trying to get things cleaned and put away. Daniel went outside on Thursday to work on the lawn in the backyard and when he moved the lawn mower he found a wonderful surprise :P. I was inside working on crib training Landon for his nap and he came in and got me. He was like can you come outside?... I walk outside and he goes "so you'd think we live in Florida" then shows me that where the lawn mower was...there was a little turtle! Weird...so he put the hissing turtle in a box and we were going to keep it...at least for a little while. I would go out and feed it some lettuce and I told Daniel that the turtle because of our little Landon. Well, the days are flying by and Daniel's parents arrived we have been enjoying our time with them. They have been helping us so much with Landon and have been enjoying all the little faces he makes.
So Saturday Daniel's mom went outside and was helping us with the upkeep of our pool. I said Daniel why don't you have your mom come inside?...she shouldnt be doing our work for us. He went outside and came back in and says "Evy, Zoe (our dog) ate the turtle!" Now, Daniel jokes with me a lot...so I didnt believe him at first. He then said, No Evy, I am serious there is blood on the patio and pieces of turtle shell out there. I didnt even want to look so I just asked him to clean it up because I knew that it would be sickening for me to go out there. Daniel was so sweet to clean up the whole mess and then last night Good ole Zoe decided to throw up the only thing she had eaten all day.... TURTLE!!! There was spit and turtle throw up in our kitchen and once again Daniel kindly cleaned up dead turtle mess. Ever since the incident Zoe has not been living down eating that poor little Turtle. You gotta feel sorry for a poor little turtle being eaten by an 80 pound American bull dog. :(
