We've been scratching our heads in amazement this week since Copper's new dog food arrived and we've started the transition process for him. Last night, it was like we were transported back into the time when Copper first arrived at our house. Except he's bigger now.

There’s no shame in swearing
Approximately a month ago I started a shopping list of things around the house that I thought I needed. Every day I'd get up in the morning and decide that I could wait one more day.
