Thomas and Tifa

I get a lot of questions about how Thomas and Tifa feel about each other. Seeing as Thomas is used to being an only child and spoiled rotten, he is adjusting.

When we first brought Tifa home she was very scared of Thomas. She stayed away from him for the first few days and then got really curious about him. She would cautiously go up and sniff him, but of course Thomas would hiss and run away. Well, then Tifa grew. She started trying to play with Thomas, and being the lazy cat that Thomas is, he did nothing about it except complain. It was so annoying! 

I tried saving him the first few times, and then I just let him figure out he needed to fend for himself. Well eventually he figured that part out. Now he eggs her on and actually starts about half of the play time sessions. But he continues to whine and hiss like he is being horribly attacked, even if Tifa is just kissing his ear. 

We know he loves dogs and we know he is actually kind of enjoying her. But I know Thomas loved being a spoiled, only child. I will say one nice thing about having Tifa around is Thomas spends more time on the couch with us ;) 

So there it is. Thomas and Tifa are in no means best of friends. But they tolerate each other and are getting better with each other as time passes :)

Changes

Hi everybody! Today I am going to talk about some changes that have taken place in my life. If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter you most likely know all the cool things I am going to share with you. But do you have the "dirty deets", so you speak? No, I didn't think so.... Read on! ;)

For starters, we moved!! No more icky Southern California. The area we were living in really was not fun for us. If we were 70 and on vacation I could see it being a nice area to vacation, but we are in our 20's so... Needless to say, I am super happy for the change of scenery! 

The whole moving experience was very stressful on our little family. In the beginning, we were given 6 days notice that Tom's company was relocating him. 6 days people!!!!! So obviously I began packing right away. We had our whole moving plan in place and on schedule, when Tom's company told him not to move.. 2 days before said move.. What?!?! That was pretty frustrating to say the least.

After 3 days of packing. This was 2 days before we were told to stay in Southern California. 

Tom came home that weekend so we could spend time together before he had to go back to Arizona for the week. We were both pretty bummed, as we were really looking forward to the move! But our weekend got REALLY exciting very fast!!

We got a puppy :)

Not just any puppy, a corgi! We had been looking for one for months, but had not been going well. We started looking for older ones to adopt and had no luck. We contacted breeders, and let's just say had no luck with them either. Then while randomly browsing on Craigslist, we found some puppies!! The next day we went to pick out our baby and we brought her home ! :)

Then Tom had to go back to work :( This left me at home with a baby puppy, which is essentially a human child with fur and no diapers. Haha ;) Needless to say, I did not get much unpacking done. Which turned out to be a really good thing, seeing as that week (Thursday night actually) Tom was told to move to Arizona.

Pretty crazy right?!?! Together we finished packing the apartment, loaded our stuff up, drove to Arizona, and moved everything into our new apartment in 3 days! All with a new puppy and overweight kitty! We are pretty awesome!

So there it is. My life has changed dramatically in the past month and I am loving every minute of it. New puppy, new apartment, new town, new JOB! Yeah, I am one happy camper.. :)

Now as promised, here are some adorable pictures of our baby girl. For more recent pictures and updates, be sure to follow me on Instagram :)

P.S. I am still in love with my kitty, and he is my favorite :) BUT get used to "Puppy Updates"! :) Thanks for reading everyone! Comments are encouraged ;)

Breaks

As you can see I took a break from the blogging world for a while. I did so for a number of reasons, mainly I had lost interest in blogging due to some personal things that had and were happening at the time. Thankfully, I think I am now over that slump!

I am going to be making a few changes around the blog. For the time being it is going to be more of a personal escape rather than "must write a post to get views" kind of a thing. I will share more about my personal life and of course I will be posting craft projects, tutorials, recipes, and all that fun stuff! Only at my pace now. This change will make blogging a lot more fun for me again (honestly probably help with my crafters block as well :P) and also I am hoping will just make the blog a more fun place in general.

With all that said, there have been many changes in my life that I can not wait to share with you all! Stick around for some fun surprises and cute pictures! ;) And to keep you wonderful readers happy, here is an adorable picture of a koala from when we went to the San Diego Zoo. You're welcome! :) Have a great day everyone!
