Hey there! It's been a while.

Baxter's been getting several e-mails lately from other dogs and their owners randomly finding the blog through searches for "Beaglier" or "Baxter." We thank all of you for contacting us. It's great to see others so enthusiastic about your Beagliers. They're truly beautiful animals. And the e-mails have been a constant reminder that we need to update! Trust us, we haven't forgotten about you guys.

Baxter is now two and a half years old, and he'll soon be a big brother. We find out this week if it'll be a boy or girl. Baxter's been a trooper as we've been remodeling and making improvements to our house. Most of the time, he can be found by our side helping out in the only way he knows how (which sometimes isn't the best way to help!!).

Baxter's favorite improvement has definitely been our new windows. Before, our windows were an eye sore, even from the inside, so they were constantly closed and covered by blinds and curtains. Now, we're proud to look at them, and so is Baxter.
