Making Mom stretch

I do most of my stretching upstairs in the morning. It  makes me feel good. Today I decided that some stretching would be good for Mom. When we were in the kitchen, I lay down right in front of the sink. That way she has to stand and stretch in order to reach over me and do the dishes. I'm also blocking the coffee pot so she has to stretch sideways to make coffee. I know she'll appreciate it later!

Morning stretch

When Mom lets me out in the morning, I stretch my way out of my crate. Then I walk along the bed between the featherbed and the mattress cause it's like a warm tunnel. When I get to Dad's side of the bed I lie down and roll over so that I am on my back and under the bed. That way Mom can't grab me! She keeps calling me and telling me to come to the stairs so we can go for a walk. But I just lie there and stretch and scratch my back. Then she cheats. Mom knows my weaknesses! She tells Dad to stick a foot out of the blankets. I LOVE to lick Dad's foot so when I see it I jump up and start licking. Then Mom sneaks in and grabs me!

Must remember that I am not a hat

This morning Dad took me out for a walk. When we came back in, he brought me back upstairs instead of putting me in the kitchen. I guess he is putting me upstairs in my room I thought. But no, I got to snuggle in the bed with Mom and Dad. I tunnelled my way down the the end of the bed and licked Mom's feet. Then I hung out for a while by Dad's feet but it got hot under all the covers. So I ran back up to the top of the bed and sat on Dad's head. Mom laughed but Dad said, "you are NOT a hat!" I think that I would make quite a stylish hat. I didn't want to sleep anymore which meant that Mom and Dad couldn't sleep anymore either. Eventually we all got up and went downstairs.

Bad hair day

This morning Mom insisted on dragging me out of the house two times in the rain! She pulled me out into the rain and I looked back longingly at the house. I don't like the rain! It makes me all soggy and makes my hair all curly and fuzzy and I don't like having bad hair days. Bad hair days makes Dad want to brush me and I hate that. I was very happy to go back inside and take a nap. Then Mom came home at lunch! I was happy to see her but then she dragged me outside in the rain again!

Protecting Mom

Last night Mom brought me up to bed with her. I could hear Dad and Grandpere downstairs and I also needed to go outside so I whimpered until she let me out. When she opened the crate door, I shot out like a greyhound and she had to chase me down.
   This morning when we came in from our walk, there was an ANT on the kitchen floor! I didn't want Mom to get hurt so I attacked it from all sides and then ate it!

Just us boys

Mom went to bed last night and let me stay downstairs with Dad and Grandpere. I lay between them on the couch and napped. This morning Mom let me play outside before breakfast. I found a soda bottle so I chased it around the backyard. A good start for the day.

Mom should go away again

I think that Mom should go away again. Besides getting to spend time with Dad (which is always great!), we had a bunch of visitors over and they all rubbed my belly! Plus I met my Grandpere. He lets me nap with him on the couch. But the best part was that when Mom went away it snowed! I love the snow! Dad took some videos of me playing. It didn't last that long though. I think that Mom coming back made the snow go away.
