Checkin' out the 'hood! August 31, 2008







Bella & I like to keep on eye on the neighborhood. Mommy & I went to Edwardsville on Friday after her work & spent the night at Aunt Sissie C, Uncle Ron's & Bella's house! They have a huge yard that we ran all over & played. While the grown ups went out for dinner, Bella & I stayed in our crates looking at each other. I'm used to mine but that's the first time Bella has had to stay in hers since she was a baby. Mommy said she gets separation anxiety when she's left alone. I kept telling her it wasn't so bad & then we each got a treat when they got back.


Aunt Sissie C, Bella, Mommy & I went to the Farmer's Market in down town E'ville Sat. a.m. We were the prettiest market dogs there! We got some free treats but we didn't really like them. After lunch, we drove back to Morton.


After church today, Uncle Ron came up & we went to the lake house for a cookout. Aunt Sissie K came. We miss having him here. Daddy surprised all of us - he bought a fishing boat! He & Uncle Ron took it out on the river for a trial run. Bella & I aren't going til we get life jackets.

I'm not sure...August 27, 2008

but I may be in trouble! Aunt Sissie C said that Bella said that I texted Bella and told her how much fun it is to roll in grass! That's really not true cause even tho I've got little paws, I don't know how to use a cell phone! Besides, just because I rolled in the grass 3 times and got all stinky, it was Bella's own idea to roll, too, and we were two hours apart, and I didn't see her, so I couldn't tell her how much fun it is, and she's older than me, so she should know better! I'm just a little girl!

I'm so excited - August 24, 2008

Daddy called me last night from Uncle Chet's in OH. Mommy said my little head was cocked to one side - I just couldn't figure out how Daddy got in that little box! Anyway, he must know how to get out, because he's coming home tomorrow!!! Yippee!!

New 'Do - August 20, 2008




Daddy took me to get a haircut & bath today at You Dirty Dog. I was shaking like a leaf when he left me but I only had to stay 2 hours! Just look at how pretty they made me!

Warm Laundry! August 17, 2008








There's nothing like a basket of warm laundry! Mommy was washing the sheets at the lake house while Aunt Sissie C vacuumed. Since I'm afraid of the vacuum, Mommy let me ride on the warm sheets when she brought them upstairs! I think Bella was a little jealous that she didn't fit in!


All weekend I've been jumping on the couches at the lake house. They're not as high as the couches at home but I DID it - I jumped on the couch at home without any coaching or help! Now I'm the couch queenie!

Oh, For Heaven's Sake - August 13, 2008

Mommy & I were just playing ball & you guessed it ~ I spit out another tooth! Yesterday Aunt Sissie K came home from Costa Rico (YEAY!)& when she was walking across the carpet, she stepped on one of my teeth. Then last night, Mommy found another one on her bedspread! Jeese louise!! How many baby teeth do I have anyway????

Play Time! - August 12, 2008

Mommy & I went over to play with Ginette & Elbe last night. Elbe has rawhides hidden all over her back yard and it's like a treasure hunt to find them. Mommy keeps taking them away from me or else I don't play, I just lie around chewing.

Last night I slept most of the night with Mommy & Daddy in their bed! I was in my crate when Daddy got home from his meeting around 10:30 pm. I cried a little bit & he took me out. As soon as he got in bed, I cried again. He woke Mommy up & told her it was her turn. She took me out & then put me in bed with them, thinking it was around 4:30 am. Haha - she needs to pay better attention to the clock! The only reason I don't sleep with them, is she can't trust me not to pee on the bed if she doesn't hear me. She sure was surprised to wake up at 5:15 & see my crate door open!

Oops! There Goes Another One! - August 9, 2008

I've lost at least one more tooth and possibly 2! Aunt Sissie C found a big one on the floor at the lake house on Sat. & Sun. when she was vacuuming, she's pretty sure she sucked up another one! I still seem to have a mouthful of teeth ~ I'm not sure where they're all coming from!

Just Call Me Gummy! - August 8, 2008

I lost another tooth today! Mommy found it lying on the bedspread. That's four teeth in 8 days!!! I'm going to be a gummy bear!

Elbe came over to play last night. Her mommy, Ginette Everts, found out that Elbe's real doggy sister might still be available and she's thinking of getting her! Elbe is about 9 months old & weighs 4# 8 oz - Millie, her sister, only weighs 2# 6 oz!!!! It would be so much fun for the three of us to play together!

I Need Some Dentures! - August 6, 2008

I've lost 2 more teeth!!! At this rate, I'm gonna be gumming my food! Sunday I lost a big molar ~ Mommy found it when I was playing with it on the floor. This morning, we were in bed & she was holding my face and felt my fang on the bottom move. I laid there really still & let her pull it!

Last night Elbe came over to play for awhile. She can jump on the couches really easy. I'm getting really close to getting up there with her - my timing if off just a little bit. I'm gonna have that mastered before you know it ~ won't she be surprised!

Aunt Sissie C Did It! August 2, 2008

When I was in bed with Mommy this morning, she heard me crunching on something & thought I brought a rock in with me from my potty run. When she finally got her finger in my mouth, she realized that my big fang on the bottom was loose & I was biting on it! When Aunt Sissie C woke up, Mommy took me in to show her & she pulled it! I didn't even cry! Mommy & Aunt Sissie C tried real hard to get pictures to put on here, but Aunt Sissie K took the download cord with her ~ she's leaving Sunday night for a week in Costa Rico ~ Buen viaje!
