splish splash

This morning's bath was one of the most fun ever. This on the heels of a really challenging seizure week, which Lars is now past.

Lars is 5 1/2 today!

Plus it's his first day back at school. Yeah! Here he is gettin' on the school bus. Whee!!

meet Lars' snake Nate!

Nate is a fabulous 9 year-old ball python who came home to us this week. We are thrilled. He has been living his whole life with a wonderful breeder & has been handled by children since birth. In fact, he was the favorite snake of the breeder's girls because he was the "nicest." Although he could live to be 40 years old, he is now of an age where they are not breeding him any more, so although he wasn't on their "for sale" list, after I sent them photos of Lars with snakes & explained my situation, they offered him to us. He has been absolutely wonderful & sweet from the moment we laid eyes on him. These photos are from yesterday, his first day home.
