Matt and I love getting to visit our former foster dogs.  It’s like visiting an old friend.  Plus, we love seeing how much they’ve grown in their new home.  So when we got to visit with Frankie today, it was a real treat.  We also took Addi along for a lil play date.  I don’t think she had nearly as much fun as we did.  Frankie was a lil more excitable than she really felt like dealing with.  But she deserved every second of it.  She was a very annoying puppy!

Anyway…I couldn’t pass up this opportunity to get some shots of this sweet pittie.

Here’s what Frankie looked like the day he was adopted.

And here’s what Frankie looks like today.

If you can’t tell from the photos…Frankie went from a lanky black pittie…so a thick brown pittie.  I couldn’t believe how much he had changed.  He’s got one black stipe down his back left of his black coat.  Otherwise, he’s chocolate!

Here are he and Addi playing…sort of.

Here’s his sweet lil face!

And here’s Addi…filthy and tired from her play date…but just as cute as ever.

Thank you Ryan and Sienna for letting us come over and play.

I spoke with my mom this morning.  She sounds so much better.  Surgery was a success.  The only pain she is feeling now is soreness from the surgery.  She will be in the hospital for the next couple of days.  Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your prayers.  And praise the Lord that my mom is ok.  Please keep praying for her body to heal.

Removed appendix…it was fine. Absess on right ovary right next to the fallopian tube that was causing the infection. Removed ovary and tube. Doctors seem satisfied that they got what was causing the problem. Will know more once she wakes up. Thank you for all your prayers. Please keep them coming!
