a little bit of random...

Here is one of the last pictures we took with Bill and Holly. Just a little update on the little girl. She's doing okay. She's going to lose her left eye for sure and her right is almost completely healed. The only downside to it is we have to give her injectable antibiotics twice a day for a while... so we'll see. We might have to make the decision to put her down as well, but we'll come to that later.. She's still hopping around and being the mischievous little bunny as always.
A couple of weeks ago, Hailey and I met my parents and Matt and Nancy and family in Bardstown for a basketball game. Jasmines team was playing the Old Kentucky Home middle school and we had fun being with family! Jay is the 3rd from the left (and smiling at me) and she did an awesome job!
Here is Ethan with his "baby cousin Hailey". He's so funny and I just love him so! I don't know why I didn't take any pictures with Amber, Devin, Matt or Nancy.. but they were there and I love them too!
Hailey was quite content on grandpa's lap with her sippie and snacks.. she's such a good little person!
Okay.. She has got some of the funniest facial expressions in the WORLD! This is right after waking up from a nap and her hair is flipping CRAZY! She sweats in her sleep and so it gets a little funky and I have to wet it down and use a brush to get it looking okay... she's starting to NOT let me put things in her hair and it's making me SO SAD!
Excuse the snot running down her nose...


my two favorite people!!! I think Nate looks very handsome in glasses! She found my basket of markers on the bookshelf and she LOVES to play with them. So I usually let her.
So our sweet neighbor, Linda, has 5 cats and Hailey LOVES them! This one is named Elvis. He's the cat that Nate saved from a tree when we first moved here. Ever since then we've been really close to Linda! She's the cat lady:)
Elvis giving Hailey some lovin'
He's almost as big as her and so she was a little scared at first.. but then she was the one chasing! Watch out kitties!
This is her really goofy smile. When you get her laughing really hard she shows all her teeth and SNORTS! Yes, she takes after her momma! It's so funny... oh.. how she's growing up.
She loves to play under the table and she loves straws!
Oh how I love this picture.. She gave me the sweetest kiss EVER and I got it on camera!!! I love her kisses!!! So sweet!
another sweet smile.. this one while changing her diaper in the car while we were out shopping:) okay.. window shopping.. you caught me!

Bill the Beloved

Today we woke up to very sad news. Bill, our bunny, was killed by an animal during the nighttime and his lifeless body was found right inside his cage. We're not sure what or who did this (we do have thoughts about cats) but it has greatly affected us. We've always pictured Bill living till 30, getting fatter and fatter, and always being the Easter Bunny. We never expected anything like this could ever happen. I just feel bad that he didn't always know how much we loved him and how much fun and joy he brought into our lives. He will be greatly missed by us and those that have known him. Some good things about Bill that we loved is that his temperament was always very calm, sweet, and snugly. We loved the way that he would hop and his fat on his feet would swing from side to side. How his ears always perked up when he heard the sound of the "treat jar" (crackers, chips, yogurt drops), how he could float in water when giving him a bath, taking him for walks (or pulls) in the park with his leash and collar. He was just such a GOOD bunny. Holly is missing him terribly and I just pray that she will be okay. She is suffering from both eyes being scratched and almost taken out. We put together a little video of Bill, no longer Bill the bunny, but Bill the Beloved. We hope you enjoy seeing our beautiful baby bunny and that he will for one last time, bring a smile to your face. Good bye Bill- We love you-
