Hello to everyone!
Things around the Giannobile house has been eventful! Ava is growing so fast it is hard to believe she is already 3 1/2 months old. She is such an amazing blessing. She is full of smiles and laughs. She is now 11 lbs 8oz and 23.5 inches long! Crazy. Ava loves standing up...sometime she will get upset if you make her sit down...standing is best. She already has full control of her neck. AND the best part is, Ava has been sleeping through the night since 10 weeks old. She is such a good/happy baby!
Jennifer went back to work at the hospital and things went well. It was like she never left. So where was Ava while she went back to work? Yep, home with Dad! Auntie Diane came to dad's rescue half way through the day which made things nice for Mark. Everyone survived and all went well.
Mark is still keeping busy with the projects around the house/barn. Gene and Mark recently went in together on purchasing a 2006 Kabota tractor. What a relief! Jennifer thought he would never buy one and only talk about buying one. The day finally came...Mark is a proud owner of a functional tractor. He is still restoring his uncle's 1949 John Deere tractor that is NOT functional at all. He is excited to get it put back together. Mark's other excitement is the possibility of purchasing two Lowline cows. Just what we need...more cows! They are so stinking cute though! So with his projects around the house, working at the fire station, and being a new dad, Mark has been keeping busy.
Sydney has had a rough past month. She wasn't walking, she would shake as if she were in pain, occasionally yelp/whimper, and we had no idea what was going on. After 3-4 trips to the vet for meds, blood work, and Xrays, she was finally put on some steroids, prednisone, and things seem to be getter better for Sydney. She will greet you at the door, she is starting to get up a little easier, and she is now eating. We are excited that things are going better for our puppy. We hope that she continues to get better. We want our puppy back. :o)
That is about all that is going on around the Giannobile's house. Nothing new coming up in the near future but we will keep you posted.
