Willie Bo Peep

Has found his sheep

And then he ate it.

The end.

Happy Birfday, woof!

Happy birfday to my Auntie Anna! I can’t wait to meet you!!! As you can see in my picture above, I’m proudly wearing the awesome shirt you got me. It used to fit me much better when I wasn’t so big, but I still like to strut my stuff in it….even if I can’t really breathe. Mommy thinks that’s hysterical. Mommy’s very mean.

Where’s Willie?

Well, tonight I about had a heart attack. I couldn’t find Willie. He was nowhere in sight. He wouldn’t come when I called him and I didn’t hear so much as a peep from him. I started freaking out. Did he jump out the window? No, no, no, no! Not possible. Did he run out the door? No?

WILLIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!?!?!?!

Oh, you fell in the laundry hamper and couldn’t get out? Hmmmm, perhaps that’s a sign that mommy needs to to laundry.

Puppy Wars

KarenNYC — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 17:54:24 +0000

That’s what my life has consisted of for the past few days and I’m not complaining! I’m spending some time in NC this week, (fyi it’s 75 degrees and sunny here. Heaven), and while my parents are at work during the day I’ve been applying to more jobs and babysitting the puppies. Yes, that’s right, that was plural. PUPPIES. Remember when we told you about my parents adopting Willie’s sister Patsy? Well, she’s here and boy is she a little spitfire. She was the runt of the litter and always had to fight for status, and that is definitely evident. Willie and Patsy have been spending the past few days getting reacquainted and lets just say there has been a lot of growling, nipping, apparent jealousy and humping (ew, gross). Willie obviously has no clue what he’s doing, I caught him trying to hump Patsy’s head once, but he just has raging hormones! (TMI?) They’re obviously playing because they know when to stop, but good Lord it seems like they’re waging war against each other. Check out the pics below, and there will be a video coming along too whenever YouTube decides to finish downloading it. Nope, YouTube refuses to download my video. Boo.

: Meet Patsy!

: Brother on the left and Sister on the right

: Tired after a long battle

: Sleepy girl

: Oh, hi!

: Getting into trouble together

: Always picking on each other

But at the end of the day they’re still brother and sister. They eat together, drink together, sleep together and even go to the bathroom together. Cute.

So, when I got home from enjoying the beautiful weather yesterday, it was a lot later than I had anticipated. But look what Willie learned while I was gone!

Sorry for the bad lighting and bad quality of the video. My favorite part is the sound his little wet paws make on the wet floor as he clomps around, haha!

Here Comes Trouble

Looks like it’s time to re-arrange Willie’s playpen or else we’re going to have an escaped convict on our hands…

I’ve been feeling pretty under the weather for the past 2 days, ick. I can’t really complain though because I haven’t been sick for quite some time now, so I reckon I was due. Willie’s been a great doctor though and if puppy kisses had healing powers, I would have been back to full health by yesterday. And to top it all off, we’re getting MORE snow today. I swear, I have never seen so much snow in my life. I mean yes it’s beautiful and all, but can a girl get a little break? No? Fine. At least this time around the weatherman is giving the storm a cooler name: The Snow-cane. Delightfully named for the hurricane force winds accompanying this wonderful little storm. That’s so much better than Snowmageddon, and Snowpocalypse. Oh wait, no it’s not. Oh well, here’s to a day of deep cleaning the apartment, sending out more resumes and cover letters and resting up to feel better.

At least I have a little snuggle bunny to sleep with

Sheet Surfin’

Giving me those bedroom eyes, haha

Good Morning Mommy!

Stay warm wherever you are!

The Tale of the Copy-Cat Little Sister

KarenNYC — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 20:48:30 +0000

I think Anna’s going to be mad at me. I mean not really mad, but maybe kinda mad. Remember when she posted about her awesome Christmas present? Yea, her awesome Canon Rebel XSi. Well, Jeff and I got to talking about how much we would like a good quality camera and after some encouragement from our friends up here that have one, Jeff surprised me with the news over our Valentine’s ski weekend that we were going shopping for a new camera when we got home! I was stoked! There’s been so many times that I’ve been in a situation up here that I wished I had a baller camera to capture the memories. And now we do!

After doing lots of research on a good quality camera, for the best deal, we headed over to B and H Photo and Video down on 34th street, (which by the way is the COOLEST store I’ve ever been in, it was like the circus), and bought our new toy. We decided on the Canon EOS Digital Rebel T1i and we got a really sweet deal on it; cheaper than Amazon! It’s a great camera and we especially love the HD video capabilities since we didn’t have any sort of video camera. But to make a long story short, me being the copy-cat little sister that I am, I took some practice pictures with my camera too. And surprise, surprise, my test subject was none other than our little Wills, along with some others. I can’t wait to freshen up the skills I learned in my photography classes at college!

Look at the cute.

“Let….me….just….

….nom, nom, nom.”

Somebody forgot to tell the snow!

Hope you’re having a good weekend!

I’m willing to bet you’re having a better one than Willie. He had his first bath today

ANGER. Plotting his future revenge.

But he’s all fluffy and clean again!

I’m Willie, Nice to Meet You!

KarenNYC — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 18:00:19 +0000

Ah, yes. Willie is super excited about meeting big cousin Jack too! And he can’t wait to show him how much of a big boy he has grown to be. He can shake people’s hands too just like Jackie-Bear! I wonder if we could teach them to shake paws? Hmmmm….
