Can dogs have Tourette's?

The other day when Hannah and I were taking Piper to the vet, Hannah looked at me and said, "Mama, can dogs have Tourettes?" I told her that it was just a human thing and she said, "But you told me dogs could have ticks." We had to talk about the difference between neurological tics and bug ticks. Too bad Frontline doesn't work for both!

Hannah's Birthday

Okay, I'm way behind, so here's a condensed version of what we've been up to. The last few weeks have been really busy. I helped plan the women's Mother's Day banquet at church which was a great success, Hannah went to Olivia and Aidan's birthday party that day, Hannah's birthday was on the 14th and we had her party on the 17th at Discovery Science Place. She got lots of great presents including a
Barbie scooter, Barbie island princess stuff, 3D sidewalk chalk, a swimming Ariel, a scrapbook kit, lots of arts and craft stuff, a Webkinz, and money to buy more Webkinz (which we did on Saturday after the party - we're up to 6 now). Nanny and Papa also got her a porcelain doll made to look just like her when she was a baby. It is amazing how much she looks like her. The lady who made it said she usually doesn't put eyelashes on her baby dolls, but when she saw Hannah's baby pictures she said she just had to put them on hers.
Hannah also finished her AWANA book and got a certificate, ribbon and a SPARK finger puppet. (The AWANA club she is in is called the SPARKS.) She had her last dance class today and after recital things should slow down a little. I'm looking forward to that!
