Christmas Goodies!

Boy did I ever have a fun Christmas! I even got presents from people Mom works with! Treats and toys aplenty...I love the boxes the best!

I think my very favorite gift was a handmade fleece blanket that Jill gave to us. Mom and I snuggle up at night in front of the fireplace and we both fit under our binky!

Dog Park Fun

I love the dog park! Every day when Mom gets home from work I knock her over trying to get into the car cuz I know it will take me to the park! I cry all the way there (3 minutes) since I know what is awaiting me...sniffs aplenty and fetching galore! I can't figure out why she makes me take a bath most of the time when we get home though...

Christmas Card Outtakes

Once again it is that time of year where Mom makes me sit pretty for the annual Christmas card. Usually I am a total ham and LOVE the lens. However, I really like to make her laugh so sometimes I make it difficult for her...

They call me Mellow Yellow

Can you believe it has been so long since I last wrote in my blog? Mom's been keeping me busy playing in the snow and watching Christmas movies. I LOVE the snow and the cooler weather! Mom seems to, but it sure takes a long time to get out the door these days. Mom puts layer after layer on - I can barely see her face by the time we make it out the door. I keep losing my tennis ball at the park, but I am stubborn and dig and dig and dig until I unearth it. If it gets really cold, I have to put my booties on. I can't believe I have to wear booties! I try to kick them off as I walk, but I know it means I get to go outside so I don't care so much.

As I write I am sitting at the pet lodge. First I was at another house with 2 dogs and a cat. Cats scare me, so I don't even go down the hall if it is there. I forget how big I am!

The nice lady Robin that I was staying with dropped me off at the lodge yesterday. Mom has been gone for a while. It seems like a long time, but I am told it has only been a few days. I guess I have to stay here until Friday! My GrandPAW is sick and in the hospital in Duluth. I know it must be important for my Mom to leave me for so long so I just dream about going to the dog park as soon as she gets home! I have plenty of friends here - furry and fleshy alike. Mom called for a status report tonight and she was told that I was a "sweet, mellow, well-behaved boy". They keep me up by the front desk since I am so quiet. I like it up here since I get to watch everyone coming and going. I also get to have doggy play time each day. I miss my Mom, but I know we will be together soon.

Here is a picture of us happy together as we will soon be again...
