Sticky Paws = Big Fat Fail!

My momma wanted to help me not slip and slide on the wood floors. She heard about these stick-on pad called Sticky Paws that go on the bottom of my feet and would help give me traction. Welll.....

They worked as long as they stayed on my feet; which wasn't very long. She followed directions perfectly. She's like that. A week later and they have all fallen off. I promise that I didn't pull them off. Heck, I didn't even know they were there.

Daddy says he might use some rubber cement to stick them back on, but I'm not so sure about that.

Oh well, I guess they will just have to keep picking my butt up off the floor.

Feels like spring has arrived.

I'm sure that cooler temperatures will be back, but this weekend I enjoyed wonderful 70 degree temps. I love to find sun patches in the yard and just sit and watch the birds, squirrels, Lily and Max run around.


It was a good day!

Pedicures Suck!

I don't know what momma's talking about when she says that she loves to get a relaxing pedicure. Today momma and daddy decided that my long nails were out of style and that I needed a trim. Momma loaded up a wooden spoon with peanut butter, but I was suspicious.

Sure enough daddy had those awful nail cutters. I HATE to have my nails cut and and will let you know about it if you try. Well I really hate to have the nails on my front paws cut. I don't really even notice when he's working on my back paws.

Long story short, I survived and I got peanut butter. I did scream a little, but nothing compared to my drama queen sister, Lily. You would have thought daddy was cutting off her toes. I think he was only able to trim a few before she just freaked out too much. No photos this time since it takes both momma and daddy to handle the cutting duties.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Wishing everyone a relaxing day of love and family. Many smooches to your Valentine and be kind to all.

Armadillo, turtle or just Tillie?

I am so silly! Momma tells me so every day. Tonight when we went outside for potty time, I thought I was being slick and tried to walk away from her. Since momma's required for a successful potty break, she just followed me. Apparently I don't walk very fast. I also am not what you would call graceful.

I was attempting to walk along the curb when one of my back legs slipped and I s-l-o-w-l-y slipped down onto the road rolling on my back. Since I'm sort of built like a sausage, there I was stuck on my back with all 4 legs straight up in the air. I looked just like a dead armadillo on the side of the road.

Since momma was right there, I didn't even try to flip back over. I'm pretty sure I would have looked like a turtle trying to right itself. Lucky for me, momma didn't have her camera ready or I would have been humiliated by photographic evidence.

Instead I'll share a few photos from the other night. That's me wishing I could climb the ramp to rest of the house. Everyone left me down in the living room (okay only for a few minutes, but still.)

I feel good. Nana-nana-nana-na-na!

That is about all the singing you'll get out of me. I'm feeling pretty feisty today. I even ran a little bit in the yard. For some reason, whenever I run my momma laughs at me. I think it just makes her happy. Believe it or not this is an action shot. See how my left leg is up, I'm runnnnning!


I wanted to share with you my favorite place. This tree stands in our front yard and I love to sit beneath it and watch the world go by. I think it is a Japanese Magnolia. I don't know trees, but I know that I really like this one.

I'm coming for ya...

Whenever my momma has the camera, I always come right to her. This is what I call an "action" shot. I just love walking around my yard. Sometimes Lily wants to play with me and I try but I'm not nearly as fast as she is. Okay, I'm not even close to what you would call "fast."



Max likes to get in on the action. Well, really he just likes to chase her and try to show her who's the boss.
