Sonogram

There he is! Yep. He! I was wrong! I guess that has to happen every 20 years or so. :) I'm sure Dippy and Dingy will be happy though. They both wanted a brother.

Stella Graduates!!

Stella graduated from the beginner class at training last night!!! We're waiting for Dingy and Sara to go through the class now and then we're all off to the intermediate course!

She brought the tunnel out as a treat for the doggies.

And yes, even a graduation cap for us!

Cast of Characters

I updated the cast of characters off to the side of the blog. I added a picture of the new baby and all of the fishies! I just wanted to make sure you took a gander over that way!!

Dippy's Fish

Dippy got himself a fish the other night. It's a King Betta. The drawn fish in the background......That's its friend. :)

Renaming the Blog

I guess we're going to have to come up with a new name for this blog. It can't hardly be the Adventures of Dippy, Dingy and Goofy when there will be a fourth one to talk about! (The address won't change cause I don't want to deal with that mess!) So we need a name for the baby! We need it's fictitious blog name AND a real name. I'm going to work on the blog name first. We have exactly 5 months from today to figure out the real name. The way negotiations are going, we'll need the ENTIRE 5 months! I do not understand why Rod won't just say, "Sure Shanelle, you can name it whatever you like." That would just make this so much easier. We all know my ideas are sooo much better than his anyway! I was seriously joking a while back when I said if I had another boy I would name it Justin Time. Well, guess what name Rod is stuck on for a boy now?? Yep. Justin Time. And his girl's name? Won't even discuss it cause he says it's a boy, but also vetoes any name I throw out for a girl.

The Big News

Well, with the nasty weather they're having in the Arctic (aka Pennsylvania!) and the vehicular problems we are having here, (I would say here in the tropics, but I think those PA people have been sharing their weather with us!) it looks like we have to postpone our Christmas trip. So, the news we were going to share in person, will now be shared here!



So here it is. I know, it has leaked a little. BUT.....tap, tap, tap, tap, (that was my lame attempt at a drumroll! sorry)



The fourth and final Kirkpatrick/Ferringer baby is set to arrive late this spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Or would it be early summer? June 9 is the current due date. We're pushing more for May, but I don't know if I can get the doctors to go that early or not.



Those of you who had already heard are now free to talk openly! :)
