Well, it has certainly been an eventful few days. Baby Ida and her sweet mother made it home. Katie is reportedly much relieved. And Mamu has assumed the role of chief baby holder. And DN continues to be a real gem.

In other news, Mr. Smith received his first bath this weekend (Westies aren’t supposed to bathe that often because of their sensitive skin that can get dried out).

And on Monday night, he got a stick stuck in the roof of his mouth while playing outside and we had to make an emergency trip to the vet [insert eyeroll emoji]. They had to induce vomiting to get the stick out after he swallowed it. He was contrite that evening, but quickly resumed his usual antics. Looking cute and trying to sample my wine.

And doesn’t his fur look nice and white!

At work, they have begun renovating the floor I work on, so we all had to move to the fifth floor (decidedly less glamorous). Nevertheless, I am settling in to my new office with this lovely view.

But there are also views like this. In real life, the blinds aren’t so noticeable.

So far, I still find it thrilling to see the Arch.
