Friend-Filled Saturday

First my friend Mr. Dean brought over his dog Beau.  It was Beau's first time to visit our house.  He got really jealous when Jeff Buckley and I wanted to sit in Mr. Dean's lap, but we ALWAYS sit in Mr. Dean's lap!

Then a whole family of friends came over.  The girl petted everybody equally, but she loved me the most.  See?

She and her brother did fight over holding me, but he spent most of his time with Jeff:

Beau Beau was relieved to get Mr. Dean back!

And he taunted Jeff by chewing on Jeff's bone (haha!):

We had so much fun.  I hope they come back again soon!

Flower Power

Mommy went completely off the rails while Robin was here a few weeks ago.  We just humored her and waited for it to run its course.  After she dressed Robin up in my knight costume, we moved on to the fabric leis that Mr. Kelly gave us. 

I look pretty cute, if I say so myself:

Jeff, however, felt quite embarrassed:

He made me think of Esther Williams!

More flowers please!

**Wrinkles Nose**

Mommy came home smelling especially stinky yesterday.  Not pig stinky, or regular goat poo stinky, or even armpit stinky (although there was some of that).  It was a new, mucus-y smell. 

I think it had something to do with this.  Ewww, what is that?

Brave Sir Robin

We have a new dog friend staying with us.  Her name is Robin and she's awfully cute.  In fact, I'm super duper jealous! 

Mommy says she's a teeny tiny terrier harrier to the cat, because she barks at her a lot.  Annika just ignores her so we do too.  I don't know that she's actually brave, maybe just dumb, but that sounds mean so we'll stick with brave.  Maybe I'll let her borrow my knight costume!

She's kind of a strange dog, though.  She won't play with us, or with Mommy or Daddy.  Also, she likes to sit up on top of the couches and Daddy's chair like Annika.  Does she think she's a cat?

She does like to sun herself with Jeff Buckley, though.

Our Royal Status

I've heard the Queen of England refers to herself as "we", so I figured I should follow suit.  I mean, we should follow suit.  Pronouns are tricky!

Mommy was playing with one of her birthday tiaras today, trying to put it on all of us.  I am a princess, you know, but I don't really like things on my head that aren't ears.  I tried, though.  I tried!

After that I was DONE.  So Mommy took the feathery thing off my head and put it on Jeremy.  He didn't mind so much!

I guess tiaras are more his thing.

Cuddles

Everyone who's met me knows that I am a cuddler!  As soon as you sit down, I'm on your lap, cuddling.  At night, I do my best to cuddle between Mommy and Daddy.  When Daddy takes naps, I'm right there with him. 

The other morning, I was cuddling with Mommy on the couch, when this happened:

At first I got mad, and I thought I might pull Jeff's hair.  I started licking him and he just...leaned into it.  So we ended up cuddling for a long time.

Weird.

Dog TV

We LOVE to watch TV!  It's not like Mommy and Daddy's little black tv, it's real.  It's right outside our window "screen".  It features such shows as Squealie Squirrels, Squawkin' Jays, Bad Dogs Who Need to Leave Now, and My Enemy: the Mailman.  Some comedies, some dramas. 

Mommy caught us watching the other day:

Gotta go--my show's on!
