Hi Everybody!

I gotta tell you sometimes my older pup sisters are just plain silly.

Last night, Belle jumped up to sit with My Greg for awhile and Bonnie actually jumped up in My Margret’s lap so she could glare at Belle because SHE wanted to sit with My Greg.

She actually pouted when Belle didn’t move.

I told them that they needed to remember how they like to snuggle together.

Or how they work together to keep an eye on things 

I especially told them that they need to learn to chill like me, because in this house there is plenty of love and attention for everyone!

Bath Time! Our My Margret said we could all tell you about our baths today. 

I don’t like baths…ever! I tried to tell My Margret that I would prefer going outside or sitting on My Greg’s lap instead of taking a bath. *sigh* But it didn’t work so I decided instead to surprise My Margret and jumped into the tub. She told me I was a good girl and her sweet pup while she was  shampooing my fur. It was taking her way too long so I decided my bath was done and jumped out of the tub. ~ Belle Pup

I love, love, love baths! My Margret was trying to get my sister Bess to take her turn when I just couldn’t wait any longer and pushed past them and jumped into the tub. I also love the taste of shampoo and I licked it off almost as fast as My Margret put it on my fur. It was a fun game. ~Bonnie Pup

I don’t like baths very much so it was fine with me when my sister Bonnie took my turn. I tried telling My Margret that I was done with my bath but she said I needed to at least get wet and at least have a little bit of soap on my fur. I’m telling you it took FOREVER! ~ Bessie Pup

Our My Margret told us that she had a surprise for us after our baths. We really like it!

It helped us stay busy while we were waiting for our fur to dry.

And waiting…

And waiting some more.

My Margret and I went on an adventure!

Well we really just went for a walk around our yard but it was just the two of us and I liked that.

I explored some of our flowers and the creepy crawlies jumpy things that were by them.

My Margret wanted me to pose in front of the morning glories and geraniums but silly My Margret didn’t have good enough snacks to bribe um reward um get me to pose where she wanted me to.  I had too many things that I wanted to smell and explore to be a pup model. I did take pity on her and gave her this. 

And this

Before I went back to this.

One of the most important rules of nap time is to pick a most comfortable spot.

I did.

Our Greg is home!!! He went to watch the eclipse with the Missouri big and little people. He got some really good pictures of it.

We missed him while he was gone. My Margret would tell us every night that he would be home soon. But it sure didn’t seem like soon to us. 
We were so excited to see him when he came home today that we haven’t left him alone.Just making sure you’re still there ~ Bonnie

And then this happened…~ Belle

I’ll share my stuffie with you! ~Bessie.

We’ve had a couple of storms since My Margret got me my Mellow Shirt.

When I’m wearing my shirt My Greg calls me his Mighty Thunder Dog. He tells me that I can handle anything,  even a thunderstorm!

~this is Bess “the Mighty Thunder Dog” pup for the rest of the pups and kitties.

I love’em  but I gotta tell you sometimes My Margret and My Greg are clueless and just plain silly.

The other night The Bouncy One also known as Bess found a mouse out in our pup pen. She kept trying to catch it and I was watching her to make sure she did it right… um I mean to give her support.

When it was time to go to bed Bess jumped up on the bed between My Margret and My Greg and kept licking them. They just thought she was happy to see them. *sigh* Finally My Margret got up and said ” show me” and Bess raced down the stairs looking behind to see if My Margret was following, she can be pretty slow sometimes.  Of course Bonnie and I went too.

Bess jumped on the couch scooping something up on her way out to the kitchen. Once in the kitchen My Margret said “drop it” which Bess did, right by the pup pen door.  My Margret took one look and told us to “leave it” and that it was time to go to bed. Once she got us upstairs she told My Greg he had something he had to take care of.   So they both went downstairs when My Greg picked up the, you guessed it , mouse to take it back outside. 

My Margret now makes Bess stick out her tongue before letting her in from the pup pen. She figures if Bess has her tongue out she can’t be carrying anything in her mouth. What? You want to know how she gets Bess to stick out her tongue? Why My Margret sticks hers out at Bess first. * sigh* The silly thing is it works.

We had a visit this weekend from three of My Margret and My Greg’s little people. They really, really, really like me! ~Linus

The girls went shopping with My Margret and they brought me back a toy! I played so hard with it that I almost felt like a kitten again. I’m keeping it close to me so it doesn’t get lost. ~ Lucy

They like to play find it with us, so they threw treats for us to find. We like that, then they had us sit, so we got more treats. We liked that too! 

After we calmed down we got to be in the same room with them. They are still little and when we get excited we sometimes forget and jump up.  That’s not a good thing. 

The oldest little person brushed my fur I liked it and by the smile on his face he liked it too. I think he forgave me for jumping on him. ~ Bonnie 

I got to show everyone how I roll over. It took a little while to remember how but then I remembered. Everyone clapped. It made me feel good. ~ Bessie

I stayed close to My Greg until I got used to the little people again. Pretty soon I was getting treats like my sisters.  Although I’m the taker carer pup in the family it sometimes takes me awhile to get used to things. ~ Belle

Guess what?!?!?! My Margret ordered me a Mellow Shirt and it came today. My Margret put my sisters out in the pup pen then she put it on me. We played a game of tag while she was trying to put it on me, and I jumped up and down from My Greg’s lap lots of times oh!oh!oh! And I got treats!!!

I like it!   

My Margret had my sisters come in and Belle played the leave it game because the fashion police that she is, she kept trying to take it off of me, but she got treats every time she “left it” so she left it! 

Bonnie didn’t care what I was wearing she just wanted to make sure she wasn’t left out of getting treats. She wasn’t.

I heard that it’s supposed to be rumbly and flashy in a few days but that’s ok I’m ready….I think.

Ever since the night a couple of weeks ago when the glowy rumbly eyes came to our house I’ve been really, REALLY afraid of the rumbly flashy wet things.

 Last Saturday My Margret posted this on her Facebook page. 

“What a night! 4 rounds of storms, 5 if you count the one now. It must have been some storm when our transformer blew 10 days ago because Bessie pup didn’t want go outside last night and she usually leads the pack.

She was very scared of the storms during the night but I put a blanket around her and Greg and I took turns hugging her tightly and petting her while she hunkered down in between us. The measure of her fear is that she doesn’t like blankets covering her, and she usually sleeps on the floor unless she is trying to wake us up.”

Well we had another storm last night right when we were getting ready for bed.  I didn’t like that one either. My Margret put one of My Greg’s shirts on me.

I kinda liked it but my sister Belle tried to take it off of me (she does stuff like that). So then it got all tangled up and I didn’t like that so My Margret took it off of me. 

Then I jumped up on the bed and tried to get under the blanket. My Margret pulled it up and around me then she and My Greg took turns petting me. I would lick them to remind them whose turn it was. 

My Greg also closed the curtains so the light flashy things wouldn’t be so bright and had the box that plays music turned on so the rumbly noises weren’t so loud.

My Margret had her lighted board thingy on and My Greg would ask her how much longer the rumbly light flashy thing was going to last. So she would tell him “it’s got a long way to go” and finally I heard “it’s almost over.”  He didn’t have to ask her when it was done I told him that when I jumped off the bed and went to lay down by my sisters.

I’m really tired so I think I’ll go take a nap now.
