Archie and Nora would like to say thank you to everyone for all the love and kindness you've shown them in recent days and give a warm welcome to our new followers! They're busy napping, however, so I'll do so on their behalf ???? . For those not already aware, we got our girl Nora, an English Pointer, from @fundsfurfriends, a local rescue shelter, seven years ago prior to having kids. Despite having come from an abusive situation her sweet and gentle nature shone through and we knew with certainty she would be a wonderful family dog when the time came. She absolutely did not disappoint! . We now have three kids, three rescue dogs (all from @fundsfurfriends) and three rescue cats and Nora gets along famously with all of them, particularly our youngest son, eight-month old Archie. Nora and Archie have such a strong bond that I began photographing their daily interactions and the supervised communal naps that they (and sometimes Nora's pup Remington) take together to show what amazing pets most rescue animals are and to encourage others to consider giving them a chance at love, too! #nappingwithnora #adoptdontshop .

Must be Monday. Barely 9am and these two have already given up and gone back to bed! ???? #nappingwithnora . Fujifilm-XT1

For the first time in days there are no thunderstorms looming on the horizon. Looks like a perfect day to hit our local wading pool/splash pad! And we'll get to that just as soon as Archie and Nora finish inventorying all the squirrels in our yard ?? #wellettaswindows . Dragon onesie: @beecoolest_company ?? . Fujifilm-XT1

Remington and Nora worked double duty this morning to help an uncharacteristically grouchy Archie through a rough teething patch. He's such a lucky boy! ?? . Teething/nursing beads courtesy of @kangaroocarebaby ?? #kangaroocarelove

1/3rd of our kids; 2/3rds of our dogs and cats; zero representation of my husband or myself. Anyone besides me think it's time we invested in a king-sized bed? ?? . FUJIFILM-XT1 #fujifilm_Xseries #myfujifilm #fujifeed

It's raining, it's pouring, Archie and Nora are snoring...?? . Yes, it's been raining steadily since yesterday morning and we have little on the agenda today other than taking a few naps, watching a movie and making pancakes. To that end, my husband and I have a longstanding argument over whether or not pancakes should be buttered before they are syruped. I say yes, of course (duh!), but he thinks it's ridiculous! What's your stance on this great debate?? Happy weekend, friends! #nappingwithnora . FUJI-XT1 #fujifilm_Xseries #myfujifilm
