Jason got a new hamster, her name is "Fifi". Julie is so in love with her.
I guess she gets her love for animals from Jason, I've always been afraid of them, but I am learning to love them slowly. Fifi is easy to love though, because she is so cute and tiny.
Here are some pictures of Julie playing with her hamster and a few other random ones.
P.S She's been sick with the flu for a while now, please keep her in your prayers. 
She couldn't keep her hand off her
Crying because we took Fifi away
Her naughty look.
Bed time fun
She loves her stuffed animals

My broken hearted admiration.
Two days ago D'artagnan, who was once called by the name of Stinky passed away. So this post is his eulogy. Here he will be remembered, not as a rat, not as a pest, not as a mere rodent, but a loving hamster, and good friend. I recall the day when fate united us.
Browsing the windows of a neon lit animal matrix, somewhere between the snakes and weasels I found your cell. I saw you curled up on a pile of shredded egg cartons, alone, empty, hurting. Your torn ear caught my attention. Your age and appearance had made you undesirable to others, but it only made you more beautiful to me. I sprung you from your penitentiary that day. I saved you from your nightmare, and then... you saved me from mine.
Your life was like a bottle of love,and you filled me up with your last drop. My memory and love for you will everlast. Goodbye friend...
(P.S. D'artagnan is a hamster.)

The Sound Of Truth
I found these lyrics convicting. In being a Christian sometimes I try to make my life seem more relatable to others.
Being a Christian, or anything that isn't what the majority of the world is, means that I believe that they are wrong and my alternative is right. I can't help but believe that the condition of our world is blatantly wrong. Although my belief in Jesus has a much broader base than an alternative to the worlds nasty conditions, the point I'm trying to make is that we Christians should behave, believe, and appear very different from the majority of mankind.
The Sound Of Truth
We have all heard what we wanted to hear
"Truth" that sounds right to our ears
But what wisdom is there within us
To live based on the feeling of our hearts
How many times has instinct let us down
Never to be thought through
Never to be questioned
Say what you really mean
When your ambition calls you
For what use is there in praying
If you will only hear what you want to hear?
We speak of fighting to resist this world
But what about the battle within us?
If we have chosen to live against the grain
Then why are we all facing the same way?
There is no difference between us and them
If we all blindly seek truth from sentiments
Hi Everyone!
In case anyone is wondering why my name is placed next to Jasons' glorious name, I'll explain why. As of now I will be posting on his blog pretty regularly about Julie and her wonderful accomplishments.
I hope you fans aren't too disappointed with our merger. Jason has gotten a little bored of his blog and so I will take the torch and together we will make Nashville a better place :)I will leave you with some pictures taken on my birthday.
Little Bug
Julie is now 8 and a half months old. She is a little angel and growing so fast. She crawls, waves, claps, dances and says mama and dada. She is very smiley and has a very foolish side to her.
Here are some recent photos of her.
To Jason
You are a great dad and husband.Thanks for putting up with me :) I love you!

Julie and Stinky
Julie recently turned 6 months, and for some time she has been begging me for a pet, I told her that pets are big responsibilities and that she will need to learn to be responsible before she can be trusted to take care of one.
She's almost seven months now and she has been a real good girl, so today for our free day Clara and I went to Petco and got a short haired male hamster plus a cage, ratball, and accessories.
I wanted to name him Pinky but Paula prompted by her obsession with copying me has decided to get a female and call her Pinky, so after much deliberation I have decided that his name shall be Stinky.
Julie and I love stinky. Unfortunately Clara fears all animals, but with time I think she'll come to love Stinky like Jesus wants her to. So today our family has increased by one, welcome home Stinky.
Below are some pictures from today and of Stinky.
