October is a pretty great month in our household.
Kirsten and I celebrate our anniversary of dating/marriage/being awesome on the 23rd.
I celebrate my work anniversary on the 20th.
Kenzie turns 3 on the 20th.
Halloween is right around the corner.
Kristen gets to light all of her pumpkin candles and drink all of her pumpkin drinks.
One of the great things about Facebook's "On this Day" feature; it allows you to celebrate even more anniversaries, memories, and milestones.
October 18th is one of those days that seemingly doesn't need to be celebrated, but when I look back, it probably does.
October 18th 2013. This picture says it all:
It's not what it looks like. Kenzie did not escape from her crate to flip over the couches and the furniture.
Although, she was probably helping when Kristen did.
October 18th 2013 marks the day when I think I truly felt like a Dad, even if it was just being a Dad of a pup.
I remember getting a phone call from our dog walker. She said, that I shouldn't worry, but there was a chance that "Kenzie may have eaten a battery". She looked around the house when she noticed the remote was missing a battery and assumed that Kenzie may have swallowed it.
She said it was no big deal and that her dog has eaten (and passed) batteries before.
I remember listening to her on the phone and thinking to myself "Don't fire her, don't fire her, don't fire her. Kristen would kill you if you fire her right now."
Dont panic.
I called Kristen in a WebMD induced panic. I read every horrible thing that there was to read on the internet about pups swallowing batteries. I was convinced that the worst was going to happen.
Kristen rushed home and tore the house apart.
She found the battery under the couch.
She sent me the photo, probably because she knew it would keep me from jumping off a cliff.
So, October 18th is a day that might have slipped by unnoticed if it wasn't for Facebook reminding me how lucky I am to have a fuzzy in the house.
October 18th kicks off a pretty amazing week of celebrations.
