Vets and Tacos!!

Duke had his annual exam on Thursday! He is always super excited to go to the vet initially (he likes to flirt with all the ladies in the waiting room), but once he gets into the exam room, he shakes like a leaf!

Mommy talked to the vet about Duke's increasing fear of thunderstorms. His anxiety continues to worsen and Daddy is afraid he is going to have a heart attack, so we got some tranquilizers for the really loud storms. They will help him relax and sleep.

Picture Below: Duke's new hiding
spot during storms--the recent
thundersnow really had him shaking.
He cries at the basement door so he can
go down and hide under the stairs.


This is Julia with her puppy, Dukers! She tries to help him feel better!














Today, we took Alex to Toys 'R' Us to buy diapers (we had great store coupons!). One would think that a two year old would be super excited about going to a toy store (even though we told him that we were buying no toys), but he seemed only concerned about tacos! Daddy and Alex guilted Mommy into letting them get Taco John's for lunch (Mommy hates it!). Once we got to Toys 'R' Us, Alex asked us if 'this is where we get tacos?' He continued to ask where the 'tacos' were as we went through the store!
