So Close...

Imagine my surprise when I spotted a delicious cute little birdie on our deck! Unfortunately there was glass between him and me...

He just sat there calmly while I chattered and went bonkers. I made such a commotion Daddy came to see what was going on. Instead of letting me have him, he told spoilsport Mommy. She was afraid of the neighbor cat getting it so she dumped the grape tomatoes into a bowl, made Daddy hold me while she opened the door (because I really wanted to get to that birdie) and she scooped the birdie up in the container... 

I knew exactly what to do with the birdie but they didn't so they called a local rescue who didn't answer the phone. Mommy then asked Maggie and Cammie's birdie expert mom what to do. She said it was a MacGillivary's Warbler and probably just stunned. Sure enough the birdie eventually began trying to fly in the container so Daddy released the little guy near my birdie bush and my breakfast flew away...

Dagnabbit anyway. That was so close but yet so far. It did make for an exciting weekend though!

How was your weekend?

Happy May!

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a great weekend! Even though we had the hots, I enjoyed a sunpuddle...

Angel enjoyed the sunlight too until Mommy made her move. Something about direct sun, too hot, blah, blah, blah. Mommy's a spoilsport...

After we had some thunder yesterday and Angel hid somewhere that Mommy couldn't find her, we're not looking forward to this coming week. Fireworks don't scare me but they terrify Angel. The neighbor kid shot off lots of fireworks last year so Mommy is preparing for this year in case he does it again. Angel can hear fireworks (and delivery trucks) from miles away so there's nothing that can drown out the booms from next door. The only thing Mommy knows to use is Rescue Remedy which helps some. Do you have any other suggestions to help make this a less stressful week for Angel (and Mommy)?

Anyway, we hope you have a wonderful day!

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a great weekend!  We napped all day Sadieday since Mommy and Daddy abandoned us to go to the coast for sun and beach fun.  Do you think we got any tuna or big birdies or anything for that matter?  Nope. Nada. Zilch.  To top it off, they spent yesterday cleaning out closets for stuff to be donated.  There's boxes everywhere!  Can you see me?

Can you see me now?

I'm hanging out here because I wanna know why this book is in the donate box...

It's says there's 50 recipes of goodies just for us!  How come we were only allowed to turn our noses up at 4 of them?  Don't we get a chance to turn down the other 46?  What if there's one we actually like?  How will we ever know if we don't get to try them? 

At least it's going to a thrift shop benefiting the humane society so other animals will benefit since we don't get to benefit from maybe finding the yummiest goodies ever since Mommy gave up way too fast.  She's a spoilsport. 

Do you get homemade treats?  What's your favorite?

Hope you enjoy a treat filled day!

PeeS:  The suitcase is emptied finally too!

Merry Christmas Eve!

Merry Christmas Eve on Tortie Tuesday!   We're still a few hours from opening our presents from Santa but I helped Mommy open her present from her BBArtisans team Secret Santa Judy from MisterPenQuin.  She got a pretty little notebook, some lotion to help her smell nice and a box of chocolates...

Hey, I think that bow is moving!

There it went again!  That bow is asking for a whappin!

Mommy took it away before I could give that bow the what for.  She's such a party pooper!

Anyway, we hope you have a wonderful Christmas Eve!  We hope your heart is filled with love and joy and your stocking is filled with goodies!

Merry Christmas Eve from all of us!

Isabella, Angel and Sharla

Birthday Excitement

Mommy says thanks for all the birthday wishes yesterday!  She had what started out to be a very quiet day but I thought her birthday should be exciting so I tried to find something to take it up a notch...

And find it I did!  There's no photos of this but right after that picture was taken I found a wasp on THIS side of the screen!  Talk about excitement!  I batted it down and it got on the wall which is when Mommy saw what it was and totally FREAKED out!  She grabbed me from behind which freaked me out so I sorta kicked her a little before she made me get away from the wasp. Then she ran to the kitchen to get something to deaded the wasp all the while yelling at me to stay away which again freaked me out.  Can you tell?

My idea to add excitement didn't quite go as planned although I did make a lovely design on Mommy's arm...

She took the photo with her left hand and she's right handed so it's much prettier than it shows and it bled a lot!  She wasn't even mad at me either!  Anyway, she had first grabbed a bag from the bead box to kill the wasp before realizing how thin the plastic was but she did leave some bloods on it...

She called Daddy at work and he came home to cover my designs bandage her up.  I may have added the wrong kind of excitement but I did make her birthday memorable!  In case you were wondering what Isabella was doing while all this was going on...

Nothing gets her too excited although she did pick up her head for 4.3 seconds when her Daddy came home!

Hope you find some (safe) excitement in your neck of the woods!

Stroll with Sadie!

Welcome to the first Sadieday of 2012! What a great way to start off the New Year! An even better way is to go on a stroll and I'm ready, are you? Grab your water and let's go!
I think I can kick this stroll up a notch if I let Mommy off her leash...
Oh yeah, this is much better because she's not dragging me down... Oh my, this stroll just keeps getting better! Mud puddles!
Somebuddy's a party pooper...
What are you looking at?
I hope nobuddy spoils your fun today!

Happy Sadieday!
Sadie

Stroll with Sadie

It's Sadieday, the bestest day of the week! I always look forward to strolls on Sadieday but sometimes they happen very late but I guess better late than never right? I'd love for you to come on a late night stroll with me so if you aren't a Husky, grab a jacket and let's go! Since it's obviously dark, I have to keep my mommy on a leash so she doesn't run away in case something jumps out of the bushes (she's a big chicken). I'll check for skeery things though. Nothing hiding in here...
There may be flying deers up here though! Ha roo!
It's really dark out (when the pawpawrazzi's flash isn't going off) so we don't really know what's lurking around us... Do you see that something ghostly is hanging around me making it look foggy out and making my eyes green!
This was taken a few seconds later and there's no ghost fogginess and my eyes aren't green!
Needless to say, that was enough for Mommy get us home pronto...
Mommy's a spoilsport. If it was a ghost I say the more who join our stroll the merrier! I hope you enjoyed it while it lasted!

Enjoy your Sadieday!
Sadie

PeeS: My foot is better most of the time but after strolls I do limp more. It doesn't stop me from jumping around and turning circles when it's treat time!

Messin' with My Sisfur Part II...

Last week I told you how fun it is to mess with my woofie sisfur Sadie by making her wonder what I was up to so I thought I'd show you another way I mess with her...
Sadie has trouble walking on the wood floor in the Mancave so we have a big rug on it. Well, I like to lay right in the middle of that rug even though it's supposedly for her. Can you see how happy this makes her?
I find it kinda fun to make her uncomfortable but Mommy feels sorry for her and asks if she wants some lovin'...
Well of course she doesn't turn that down...
She's a total Momma's Girl so Mommy doesn't like me messin' with her. Fine. I'll just stare at her so she sleeps with one eye open! Sadie may be spoiled but Mommy is a spoilsport.

Do your beans spoil your fun too?

Hope you get to have fun today!
Isabella

Stroll with Sadie!

Woo! It's Sadieday! Time for another stroll with me! Hope you're ready cause I am so let's go!

I love being able to run in the hills! It's fun to do a little off-roading too!

For the most part I stay on the trails and try not to get too far in front of Mommy cause she makes me comes back when I do. She's a pawty pooper.

I'm coming Mommy. Hold your horses.

Okay, next time I need to watch what I say since Mommy doesn't hold her horses but she does hold the leash which means, we're heading back home.

Although my stroll was short, I had a good time and hope you did too! Thanks for coming along!

Have a great Sadieday!
