Picnic time!

Today was a beautiful day! We were out doors most of the morning and enjoyed a nice picnic at a community duck pond. JR loves feeding the ducks and we had a lot of bread for them. I love family days like these and love our San Diego weather :-)

Gwen & Shamu

Today I had to make one of the hardest decisions ever! We put Gwen and Shamu to sleep :-( It's something we have been thinking hard about for the last month and a half. Shamu had been getting worse with his diabetes, he would meow often like he was sad. Both Gwen and Shamu would throw up often and sometimes multiple times a day. They both were on medication twice a day. It was getting to the point we were asking ourselves how happy they really are :-( It has been a really sad day so far and I keep crying off and on. I have been really good so far not to cry in front of JR, she is what keeps me going. Thanks sis for coming over and helping out with JR, we love you!

The whole family...JR just 5 days old. I know it's not a great picture, but it's the only family picture I have of us all. Shamu is hiding a little, but he is there and I know you can hardly see JR, but she is there too.



Shamu would always protect JR!

Shamu again being a good sport.


For some reason JR thought Shamu needed the remote and her baby while sleeping.


Silly JR, she did all on her own! Poor Shamu, he was always just a good sport with her.


Gwen says "help"!

This was back in April 2010, Shamu's blood sugar got too low and we almost lost him. The vet saved him!
