You Got a Friend in Me!

Having a dog and a Baby you always wonder if they will get along? I have known people that had to get rid of there dog when they had a baby for whatever reason they had. Well Router is our baby too I couldn't imagine not having him, hes part of our family just as much as Kelly or I or Kairi is. So when we had Kairi I always hoped he would be okay with it. That he liked her, that he was nice to her, that she was nice to him. He wasn't a fan of kids when he was little and since he hasn't been around kids to much I was always a little worried. When she was first born Router did go into doggie depression. He didn't eat very much, he just laied there most of the time, his nose got all dry, pretty sure he was even a little sick. I felt horrible. His life just got turned upside down. But he recovered and now Kairi and him ar the best of friends.


He takes such good care of her. Whenever she is crying from just waking up Router is the first one to her door. While I am feeding her in her room he sits right at my feet till I'm done. He likes to play with her. And Router makes her Laugh the most. If she is crying the moment she sees Router she stops and smiles. She has a hard time eating if he is anywhere in her eyesight, she just wants to watch him. She loves to play with him. Winters are a little hard becasue we don't go outside as much and he loves to be outside. He sleeps alot - sometimes hes part bear and goes into hibernation most of the winter. But Router and Kairi really are the best of friends! And I'm thankful for that, I couldn't live without either one of them!

She is getting so big and is so cute! Glad your two kids like each other. That would be hard to get rid of the dog if they didn't. Glad you didn't have to do that!

Seriously, it doesn't get any cuter than that.
