Introducing…Wrigley!

Here he is…..meet Wrigley! Thanks to all of you who voted for his name….we secretly wanted to name him Wrigley so we were really excited when the name won in the end….it was a close one!

He has only been home for a few hours, but so far he is doing great!

He loves to play!

Isn’t he the cutest puppy you have ever seen?

He started to play tug of war with the blanket…so cute!

More pictures coming soon, I’m sure. Right now our little man is exhausted and taking a much needed nap in his bed! As for Pancake and Henry, they are actually doing really well! There were a few hisses, but so far they are being good boys. I hope it lasts!

    Oh, Pancake and Henry, this could be real TROUBLE. You must work quickly to make this hound understand the superiority of the feline. He needs to know from the start that you are the boss of him! I have lots of experience with big hairy dogs. When he approaches, puff yourself up, including your tail, stomp your front foot, look him in the eye and hiss. If he gets too close, a quick slap with your paw across his snout will stop him in his tracks….just make sure your momma is not around when you slap him.
    Just remember, CATS RULE, DOGS DROOL!!!

It really is true when they say the days are long It really is true when they say the days are long but the years are short. One day I’m struggling to carry two babies at a time while wrangling a toddler and then next minute they are all off to school and practices and friends’ houses. With all three kids in school we’ve been thinking a lot about their futures and how we are going to one day pay for college. We set up a Michigan Education Trust 529 plan for each of our kids when they were babies and I am SO happy we did! With a MET account, we can pay for future college tuition at today’s prices. With MET’s discounted age-based pricing the earlier you start, the more you are able to save! Plus grandparents and other loved ones can contribute to my kids’ accounts too! With MET you get back what you put in if your child chooses a different path and the money goes with you if your child goes to school out of state. You can even transfer it to immediate family members and all contributions to MET plans are tax deductible! To learn more about how to set up a MET account and the benefits of starting your child’s account early, check out my stories or the link in my bio. @mieducationtrust #sponsored #SETwithMET #MI529 #collegesavings #METSept2023
