I’m still recovering from whatever Sunday night did to me this week, and of course, on top of that, I’m dealing with my cycle as well.

Side note: Each month is a huge disappointment.  We truly thought we would be pregnant again by now.  And on top of it all, each cycle is extremely painful.  I’ve been tested for everything and I have nothing wrong with me.  It just is what it is.

But enough of that, today I wanted to share a few pics from this week of one of my favorite summer activities.

So on bright summer days, which there are many of in Texas, the dogs and I go out in the backyard, lay out a blanket and sit in the shade of our tree.  I read books and they, usually, fall asleep.

Jerzee hates to sit in the grass or walk in the grass unless there is a blanket to lay on.  Her paws are pretty sensitive, so I think the grass just makes them very itchy.  That, or she’s a prissy princess.

Teddy doesn’t mind the grass.  In fact, if we stayed outside all day, he would be the happiest pup.  He likes being with us, but he likes being outside as well.  Luckily we have a doggie door that accommodates his indecision.

In fact, I think a little sun might be good for me today.  I think I’m going to head out back and soak up some rays with the pups!  Hope you are having a great week!
