We want to wish all of our Furfriends and their hooman families a very Merry Christmas!! We hope that Santa Paws gives everyone what they wish for this Christmas and hope that you all have a peaceful, loving and happy Christmas!!!
Have you ever heard of a thumb sucking dog?? Let me introduce you to Chewy, lol!! He started doing this when he was a little puppy....he would grab Steve's thumb and start sucking away just like a human baby and continues doing it to this day. Funny thing though is that he will only do it to a man's thumb. I can count on one hand the number of times he's grabbed ahold of my thumb! He always goes after Steve's thumb, our friend Anthony's thumb, and when my godson was over a couple of weeks ago, Chewy even grabbed his thumb! And when there's no thumb available, he'll suck on his back leg, which irritates me to no end. He'll be laying somewhere, and I'll hear a sucking sound and look over to see him with his back leg in his mouth. All I have to say is "Chewy" and he takes it out with a sheepish look on his face as if to say "you caught me!"
Chewy is an extremely quirkly little guy, and this is just one of his quirks!
When we went to bed last night, all was quiet outside and normal. When we got up this morning, this was our world: Snow!! And lots of it! While we were sleeping, a BIG storm came and dumped 16"!! of this cold, wet white stuff all over our 'hood! And you know what our evil parents did to us? Yep, they MADE us go out in it!
Yeah, okay Mom, we are so not happy about this, but we are ready. Oh my doG, it was so cold out there! Mom made us walk down to the end of the street: When we got to the end, that's when Miss Priss had had enough of the snow and started begging to be picked up. Me, I'm a dog now and can brave anything!!
Then we walked down to the other end of our street to see what Federal Hill looked like. After that, Mom took pity on us and FINALLY brought us back into the warm house. Mom, we love ya, but if you ever get that bright idea again, we will not be happy dogs!!
I just LOVE the Jib Jab cards where you can put the faces in!! I always get a kick out of making them, and usually by the time I'm done and I view the finished product, I am giggling hysterically!!
This one features Chewy and Lilibell against me, their Dad and their Auntie Lori. Enjoy!!
This Tuesday's video features Chewy and Steve's little cousin Angelina. She had stayed over our house one night, and early the next morning both her and Chewy got a burst of energy and started chasing each other through the house. Needless to say, it was too much activity for me that early in the morning, but I did get a kick out of it!
On Saturday, Mom had a burfday party for me!! My Auntie Lisa came over with Dylan and my furcousin Sally Jean (well, actually, I consider her my girlfriend, BOL!). I had so much fun with Sally, she's not prissy like Lilibell, which means that she really wrestles with me, and I mean really wrestle!
Mom made a very special Burfday meal for me, Lilibell and Sally, we got to have a hamburger with some broccoli and carrots! It was so yummy!
But then after I was done with my supper, I got put into prison!! Humpf, imagine that, the Burfday boy in prison at his own party!
(Note from Mom....After Chewy got done inhaling his supper, he promptly went over, pushed Lilibell out of the way and proceeded to eat her supper, then when he got told no, he then went over to Sally and did the same thing! I think he thought that since it was his birthday, he could do whatever he wanted, lol!)
Then everyone gathered around me and sang Happy Burfday to me! After that was the best part, we got to eat the delicious cake Mom made for me! Thank you Mom, it was soooooo nummy!! It was made with peanut butter and had carrots in it and more peanut butter on top!
This is my hoodie that Mom and Dad got me for my present. It says "Security" on it, Mom said that I'm definitely the security guard at the house, of course I am, I have to let them know when I hear someone coming up the stairs...who knows, it may be a bad hooman!!
And here is my lovely girlfriend modeling the necklace Mom made for her, I think she looks very foxy in it, BOL!
And the two girls together, I don't think Lilibell likes Sally all that much. I think she may be jealous of her (you know how girls are!). And I think Sally is giving Lilibell the stink eye here, BOL!!!
And here is a video of me and Sally having a little wrestling fun
I have to say that I am a very lucky dog to have great parents who love me and help me celebrate my very special day!
We must send an apology out to all of our blogging friends as we have not been on here that much. We have been reading all of your exciting posts, but our Mom has been awfully busy lately and has not been able to post many comments. You see, our Mom is going to be starting an online shop after the holidays and her head has been spinning with all of the numerous details! We are still here everyone and you all are in our thoughts each and every day!!

I am a 40 something year old mother to two rambunctious Chihuahuas - Chewy and Lilibell! I was inspired to start a blog by my dear friends Tiffany and Lilian as a way to record all the memorable moments of Chewy and Lilibell.
This is the life and times of two Chihuahuas living in a city.
Born December 3, 2007 Likes: Squeaker toys, barking out the window, Cheerios, walks, underwear, kissing, back scratches, cucumbers
Dislikes: High places, getting his teeth brushed, thunder storms and that's about it, there's really not too much he doesn't like!
Quirks: Needs to bring his favorite toy of the moment to bed with him...not to play with, just to be there! Thinks he owns the City streets, must touch the beads in the bedroom before going to bed, loves to suck on our thumbs (yes, just like a baby!), rolling around in piles of dirty towels.
Miss Lilibell
Born June 17, 2008 Likes: Her blue sheep, socks, dressing up, going on outings, Cheerios, belly rubs, walks, playing fetch, kissing
Dislikes: Getting her feet wet
Quirks: Lilibell really doesn't have any quirks, except that she will munch on anything and everything she finds on the floor.
