Beginnings

So, we started this blog a month ago. As you can see, we're going to do an awesome job of posting regularly. Anyway, the big events of the past month:

-David finished his Internal Medicine clerkship and started his Surgical clerkship. He's just finished 3 weeks of thoracic surgery and starts vascular surgery tomorrow.

-Rachel started grad school for a master's in biomedical engineering. She's taking one class that is a review of all undergraduate biochemistry and molecular biology courses...great for someone who's never taken either.

-A new Sunday school class for newly married and engaged couples started at our church, Briarwood. We have started going to this class and have been blessed to meet many wonderful couples.

-And, the biggest news of all, our family doubled in size. We are now the proud parents of two adorable Alaskan Klee Kai's. What are Alaskan Klee Kai's, you ask? Well, these are our AKK's.

Our boy, Takoda.

Our little girl, Shtiya.

Our first family photo.

As you can tell, Alaskan Klee Kai's look a lot like huskies, but a lot smaller. They will grow to be about 15 inches tall and weigh about 15 pounds when they are adults. Right now they are 3 months old. Currently, Shtiya is napping on the couch and Takoda is sleeping upside down on his daddy's lap. These two are not the least bit spoiled....
