Pee Ess.....Chewy here, I had an absolutely pawsome Christmas Birthday Bash yesterday, butts the Mom is awfully busy baking all kinds of goodies for Christmas and won't have time to post abouts my birthday bash, butts she did promise me and all my peeps that when she is on vacation (during Christmas) she'll post about it then!

It's My Birthday Today

And I can be cute if I want to!



I am 4 today!!!

The Mom keeps wandering around the house, blubbering with leaky eyes saying "my baby, my baby is all grown up!"  I tell her "Don't worry Mom, I'll always be your little boy!"

Next Sunday is my Christmas Birthday Bash....stay tuned

A Plea to Dip Dip & the Bridge and Elliot Too

Oh My Dog!!!  We can't believe you guys are back in Blogville!!!!!  We saw your post today and just about swooned in excitement at seeing you guys again after so long!  We've been dancing around, giddy with happiness because we just terribly missed you guys.  Even the Mom was dancing with us!

However, we have one very small problem.  Since you guys have been away, the comment section on Blogger has gotten terribly messed up, and if it's embedded in the post, it doesn't work for us.  We tried to leave a comment for you guys, but the Mom could not get it to work.  If you could kindly have your Mum change the comments to a pop up window, it would be much appreciated!  Since the Mom couldn't get it to work today, we wanted to do this post especially for you so you wouldn't feel like we had forgotten you (like that would ever happen!!!)

Your Biggest Fans,
Chewy & Lilibell

Keep Your Human Busy

Because if they get bored, this can happen to you.....

A Diva's Birthday Celebration

I am 3 today!!


But the celebration was yesterday, and boy was it a pawty!  So today was just spent vegging out on the couch with the Mom and Chewy.

Wednesday the Mom spent the afternoon getting ready for the pawty.
The cake was in the oven


Snoopervising to make sure it comes out perfect


The meatballs and sauce were made




The peaches were pureed for the peach mojitos (Adults only, BOL!)


And the hamburger was made for our birthday dinner


Then we helped to clean up


The day of the celebration dawned sunny and warm and we got all pupped up.  The Mom made all 3 of us (me, Chewy and Sally Jean) birthday pawty outfits!!

Here I am waiting to debut my Diva tutu




Chewy with his new vest, he looks so very handsome in blue!


And Sally Jean in her sassy Girly Skull tutu


Time to chow down on our birthday dinner.  Every birthday the Mom makes us a hamburger with steamed broccoli and carrots......nummy!!




Taking a break from the pawtying


Time for the Happy Birthday song and cake!  We were waiting alllll night for this delicious cake


The gang


Chewy all pooped out from so much pawtying and cake, BOL!


Thank you Mom, once again, you threw a fabulous pawty and really know how to make us feel special on our special day!

Togetherness

Never Fear, We're Still Here!!

We know, we know, it's been waaaay too long since we've posted on our blog, butt it's really not our fault, we swear!!  We place the blame firmly on the Mom's shoulders, as she is our secretary and she has been so very lazy and slacking lately.

Butt in all fairness to her, nothing exciting has been going on in our world either.  The same ole same ole routine - get up in the morning, eat, go back to sleep, get up and run around a bit, then time for the afternoon nap, the Mom comes home and we go out for our daily walk, we come home and eat, then watch and beg as the humans eat, then settle down with the Mom and watch some TV before heading off to bed.  The next day - all over again!

To prove that we are still around, here is a video for your viewing pleasure. It's me, Chewy, acting like a goof pup before going to bed, hee hee!!



Pee Ess....Wall-E, we've tried many, many times to leave a comment on your blog, butt have had so many problems with the comment thingie. We're still enjoying your blog and finally found out where your name came from!!

The Name is Bond...

....Chewy Bond

Progression of Sleep

She Did It!

Mom has successfully quit smoking!  Today is the 32nd day of being smoke free and she can now call herself a non-smoker, woo hoo!

Mom has been smoking since she was 15 years old.  So that means she's been smoking now for close to 30 years.  She has tried so many times in the past to quit this nasty habit, but never was successful.  She wasn't that heavy of a smoker, about a pack a day, butt still, that's enough to cause a lot of damage.  The longest she went before was 2 weeks, before she gave in to the craving and lit up.

She was thinking about quitting again, and even tried for a couple of days back in September.  Butt the night before Thanksgiving was when she finally had it and said "enough with this bad habit!"  She thought about the many reasons why she should do it, such as:
1.  She'll live a lot longer
2.  She'll be saving a ton of money (which means more that she can spend on us, BOL!)
3.  Her lung capacity will come back
4.  She won't smell like a stinky ashtray anymore
5.  The house won't smell like a stinky ashtray anymore
6.  Butt most importantly, and one of the main reasons why she had to quit, was she was very worried about us breathing in second hand smoke.  She said she would be devestated if we got cancer because of her, especially seeing as how she's doing everything in her power to keep us healthy and living long lives.  She also said that she was so tired being a slave to the addiction.

So, the Monday after Thanksgiving, she woke up, slapped a patch on and has not looked back.  She says it's true when they say "You'll only be successful with quitting if you really want to quit."  And she really did want to quit and be sucessful this one last time.  It was hard for her in the beginning, even with the patch on she still had cravings, butt she always kept the thought in her head that the craving will pass, which they always did.  Butt this past week she didn't even think about cigaretts and smoking.  And she's already feeling an improvement healthwise (although right now she has a nasty cold!)....she doesn't have that smokers cough anymore, she's not huffing and puffing when going up the stairs, she has lots more energy and is not tired as much, she smells delicious all the time now and the money she has in her pocketbook now, oh Lord!

Mom, we are so very, very proud of you!
