27 weeks...

Sorry this has taken me so long! We took some pictures today and they are proof that I really am still pregnant. Gus is growing big and strong and is becoming very protective (good boy!). More park pictures to follow.

Ultrasound #2

The foot!

She's all smiles! Ok ok... she's not really smiling, but it is really cute!

It's a girl!

We are so excited!

Another day at the park...

We love going to the park. There are so many new pups there to teach Gus new tricks... like jumping off the "cliff".

Although he may not be the fastest swimmer, he sure makes up for it in jumping! What a super-pup!

Fun Pics Downtown Bryan

I am 4 months pregnant now (look at that cute little bump!) and we decided it was time for some pictures of us. Our friend Anna went with us to take them and here are a few of my favorites!

Gus and the Park!

Since Gus has now had his rabies and other shots, we were finally able to take him to the park. I was feeling great this morning so we decided after cinnamon rolls to take him to the park! He had such a fun time. The water was a little scary at first, but he just kept going in to get that baby (his toy)!! Enjoy the pics!

He doesn't like the truck yet...but he didn't know what was coming to him!

A little scared... no baby yet...

Can't quite figure out how to get it without going under...

Ok... fourth times a charm...

He did it!! He was so proud and so were we!!

What a good boy!

Baby Brewer

I am 10 weeks along now, but here is the ultrasound from last week. We heard "his" little heartbeat, saw "his" little arms moving... It is so wonderful to see the reason behind all the nausea!!

Gus update...

So it snowed here in February... never posted about that! Gus is now 27 pounds, although these pictures are from a while ago... more newer pics to follow!

The "ruff" life of Gus Gus

Just thought we would share how difficult Gus' life has been. He has it hard, but somebody has to do it!

This is probably the worst part of the day...

His first bath

He has learned the head tilt

Yep... he's tucked in...

We've got mail!

Can you tell we love him? He is so fun to have around! He is growing so fast!!

Gus Gus!!!

Pup #2. Since our sweet Buttercup had to say goodbye so early we decided it was time for a boy.

Here he is. Gus. He is definitely a boy...

We just got him on Friday and as you can see by his dad, he has a LOT of growing to do!

I am sure you are going to see a whole lot more of him.

Saying goodbye!

Our last day we packed and said goodbye. It is always hard to say goodbye to great people and great experiences. This was an experience that has impacted our lives and one we will never forget.

All the students with the Brewers (we are in our traveling clothes!)

On our way out to the airport, we had to take a picture of the poor houses on the side of the bridge. It is amazing to see.

A chance to see an old friend...

We had the opportunity to meet the Sestoso Family. I had met Rionil Sestoso in California before he was married. We took them out to dinner with Met-Met and Lester. It was a lot of fun and great to see an old friend and make new friends!

Everyone with the Sestoso Family. They are such special people.

The food was delicious. It was so cheap too... we really miss that!

The juice was so good, but not as good as the company!

Karaoke Night!

We had a karaoke night for our farewell party. Neither Jeremi or I have ever sang karaoke... and we were a little nervous...

We ate some really good barbecue chicken with the staff...

And then the fun began!! We sang!

And we sang...

And we sang!!

And we did the YMCA! It was a lot of fun!!
We can't wait to karaoke again!

Lester's House

Lester, one of the employees of the Academy, really helped us out a lot during our stay. He invited us to his home for some Filipino treats!

We still aren't sure what this is... it was like a gooey... sort of sweet...goop!

Yes, Jeremi tried Balot (pronounced Balut)


I think he prayed right before he ate it! Don't worry, he didn't eat very much. I think it was a one-time taste.

Met-Met and Rebecca... good friends watching the fun!

The whole gang.
