Thanks Ali for Nixon's birthday wishes, and tthose with bday wishes on FB, i guess he gets somewhat "forgotten" with the June babies being Apirl! Nixon had a good 3rd birthday mostly. He went to preschool the day of which he got loads of attention for his special day! i made little cupcakes in the faces of our dogs the boxer & husky. he did his first news story that day on his dogs!
whilst he was at school i was making the cake! i made a toy story one this yr, wasnt hard just time consuming, it was 3 tiers! turned out pretty well.
we had his party on the sat just up the road at a nice small cafe/playcentre. Then 10min before we were about to go dh went out the back and found our boxer unable to stand.... he rushed him to the vet knowing it wasnt good. i was stuck with 2 boys and a 3 teired cake to get up the rd! my parents swung by here and helped me.
it was hard to forget about marlu at Nixon's party and had a cry when ppl asked me where dh was.
he came to the party clearly upset and never took his sunnies off. Then i went up to the vet about 230pm they had just done an xray of his spine and he seen me straight away. He had a huge bone grown on his spine bigger than the vet had ever seen (it was about 2 inches long) by 4pm i held his head whilst he went to sleep, dh couldnt come in he stayed int he car. my parents and sister were at home witht he boys thankfully and we arrived home devistated. we both cried ourselves to sleep that night and nixon came into our bed (he knew we were upset) and told us that tahoe was sade and poor marlu.....
the following day we had my neices bday party still feeling shocked at what happened. sunday night my neice ended up in hospital with severe dehydration and gastro..... Monday we took the boys to the easter show and came home to them both throwing up. by wed dh had it and thursday i had it.
it was a sh##ty week to say the least!
this week dh came down with a cold and has been moping around and today i got a call from nixon's preschool to say he had a temp of 39.5 and needed to come get him.
i was an hour away minding my neices so dh came from work (he was 25min away) and i had to get my mum to come home from where she was so then i could come home. he is having a sleep now and temp gone down and waiting to see how he is when he wakes.
thats us in a nutshell lol!
