Caitlin's birthstone : amethyst
Waw, what a birthday party !  I'm all
tuckered out now.
This is an old custom in Belgium.  Whenever a new baby's
born, the visitors and friends and family are given a little
something, filled with "suikerbonen" - sugar beanes filled
with chocolate.  These gifts are in fact little picture frames, so they can all display my first pictures.  Great idea no ?
Born on February 3, 2002
at 11.20 pm. 
Weight 3,090 kg. Height 48 cm.
My full name is Caitlin Goossens,
my mama is Debby Michielsen
and my daddy is Luc Goossens.

It's a Kind of Magic  -  Queen
This is Caitlin's original birth announcement card.
Here are some pictures from before I was born.
Mommy and daddy's friends held a surprise baby shower.
Off course, I was at the
party .... as you can see.
Here are mommy's friends and family at Auntie Suzette's home.  Hey, what can I say ..... I was popular even then.
And here's my mommy
with our presents.

These are my new pictures.  I'm 6 days old now.
This is my grandmom (on mommy's
side) holding me.  Boy, she's all crazy
about me.  Pssst ... I'm her first grand-
child.

Come back from time to time to check out my new pictures.
Caitlin goes overseas !
Mommy decided it was time for me to go on my first
overseas trip.  So we took the car and went on this
BIIIIGGGG boat to the world famous Crufts dog show in England.  Although this was not the first show I went to, it was certainly the biggest.
Some of my best friends, Aicha, Flirt and Yankee-Boy came along.  They were to compete at the show.

Here we are in the boat's lounge.  I was
hungry so mommy is feeding me.  Kim,
Suzette, Tanty and daddy are watching me.  Caroline and Karen went for drinks.
Wow, look mommy,
we're at Crufts !!
Here are the girls in their bench.

At the show auntie Kim   had to feed me 'cause
        mommy was busy
              in the ring
almost the
whole time.
Aicha took 2nd place in the big
post-graduate class.
Mommy, mommy ...
look what a great
looking Aussie !!!!
Hey, where's he going ??
Stay here, I want my
mommy to see you !!
"It's OK, Caitlin.  I saw
him ... thanks baby."
Our girl Flirt took
Best Bitch at Crufts.
Way to go mommy !!

All the grown-ups were
so happy they even
cried a little. 

Not me though, I was
hungry again.  Hey can
I help it, I need to grow..
After the show we went to  a nice little place ......

Mommy's feeding me ....
Karen's feeding mommy.
where we all cheered over Flirts win.

My daddy was so proud
that he put Flirt's ribbon
on me and said I was his
most beautiful girl.
I'm daddy's girl ....
And this is my latest portrait taken on March 8.  I'm 5 weeks old now.
Look, I've grown since the last pictures.
See, I've grown .......
I'm developing some serious
"footprints"  !!
Grandma's proud ...  I'm only
8 weeks and I can already
hold my own bottle.
Don't ya think I look like a real girl ??
Well, you know I travel around a lot.
Here I am in Switzerland.
Mommy, Daddy and Tanty went to the
Jubileum Show of the Swiss Collie Club.
This time it was my daddy steeling the
show with Rhett.  3 Cheers for daddy !!!
Here's daddy and Rhett taking
Winners Dog in Switerland on
April 20.  I'm very proud of my dad.

I hold the leash.

specialising handling
Aussies, but I can clearly handle
all breeds.  In this case
my little English Staffie

Thanks to mommy's friend Christel
Van Woensel for this opportunity.
See my fancy footwork ?
OK, OK, I agree, it needs some work.  But I still have about 8 months to get it right !
See how beautiful I stacked this dog ?  Handled to
perfection !!
Now if I could only remember to smile for the judge .......
Here we are again at the ASCD-show in Königswinter.  It is June 22, the summer has just begun and it is hot ...... very hot.....  I am 4,5 months old and watching my mama,
