The Best Stocking Stuffer Ever!

Merry Christmas!!! Cody got the "Furminator" brush in his stocking this year, and boy does he LOVE it! He didn't mind being brushed over and over and over with it. I can't believe the amount of fur that came out! Let's see if Mom has to vacuum the house in the next few days or if the Furminator did its job. :)

(Before shot- just getting started)

(After shot- done! Could have done more, but didnt want him to go bald haha)

Blondes Have More Fun...

At least that's what mini Patrick thinks. He dyed his blue hair, blonde to match Daisy!!

Ok, we won't be ridiculous... This is mini Patrick version 5. Cody and Daisy want to give BIG THANKS to Bunny B for their new and improved mini Patrick version 5 Christmas present!!! Thanks Bunny B!!!!

Christmas Portrait 2009

We just took our Christmas family portrait (which some of you lucky ones will soon receive in the mail), and I decided to take some cute pictures of the kids in their Christmas scarf attire (apparently all the doggie antlers have sold out in our neighborhood, so scarves it is!). This was probably the best picture, as they both have their eyes open and they both are looking at the camera. haha :)

Saving it for a rainy day...

Which would probably mean, everyday is a rainy day at this household! :)

Privileged.

There, stands a BIG, comfy L.L. Bean bed (with "Cody Bear" embroidered on it), alone. No dogs sleeping on it because the dogs felt the need to sleep on other furniture pieces around the house. And we let them. :)

Lick-a-saurus Rex!

Don't know why Daisy REALLY wanted to give Cody some kisses tonight!

Cuddle Buddies!

Looks like the holiday season brings out the love in all of us! :)

I Totally Missed Black Friday...

No doorbusters sales for me! I slept in... Hope everyone had a happy and yummy Thanksgiving! :)

Make Room for The Bear!

Who does he think he is? All cuddled up on our bed WITH his toy ball?! Life's so tough for these kids. :)

Cody's Bodyguard...

Pillow fight!

More like a mini Patrick fight... Poor Mini Patrick #4. This was Cody's 3rd birthday present. Doesn't look like this one lasted too long...

Such an innocent little face...

Lioness...

Yes, she is a dog, although Daisy looks quite like a lioness on the prowl in this picture!

Happy 3rd Birthday Cody Bear!!!!

There's the birthday boy!

Here's Daisy in the birthday spirit. She hopes Cody has a fantastic day! :)

Can these two be any more of some party animals or what? ;)

Patiently waiting for Mommy to light Cody's candle on their delicious home made doggie cupcakes...

Candle's lit! Everyone all together now... Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you...

The Autumn Sun...

The Bear LOVES it!

Thank Goodness It's Friday!

We decided to shut our laptops off a wee bit early, just so we could enjoy the outdoors with our doggies. Cody and Daisy REALLY appreciated it! :)


They get so excited at the beach, they just get all crazy, tongue hanging out with the funniest faces!

Some people can't roll their tongues... Looks like Cody mastered it!

Daisy had a secret to tell... in mid-air! :)

Daisy waiting in shallower waters, ready to pounce on the Bear when he gets near her...

Awww... the fog rolled in so it was time to go home...

Bailey!

My oh my have I got a story to tell you! (Sorry, this post does not involve Cody or Daisy haha). So about a month ago, we went to Helen Woodward just to look at doggies for fun. I fell madly in love with the cutest most smallest Golden Retriever puppy that I just could not let go. Her name was "Doris." I don't know how long I stayed at her kennel, playing with her, staring at her, and just going head over heels in love with her, all the while giving Elbert the "we HAVE to get her" eyeballs. Of course, Elbert is the sane one who always tells me that we have 2 beautiful, crazy dogs at home. We always end up leaving Helen Woodward (or Petsmart's adoption days, or any pet rescue place we go to) empty handed - me with a pouty face that lasts about 2 hours, and Elbert rolling his eyes and annoyed at how many times he has to tell me that 3 dogs is way too many (for now). :)

So today at doggie park date day, a brand new Golden puppy strolls in... The minute I set eyes on her, I immediately went to its owner and asked the obvious questions... How old is it, what's its name, and the question I needed answered immediately... Where did you get her? Well, they named her Bailey, she is about 15 weeks old, and they got her at Helen Woodward!!!! They also said that her name at Helen Woodward was "Doris!" OMG! What are the odds?!?!? I am SOOOOOO happy to know that Bailey is now at a very good home and that I will definitely be seeing her more often at the park play dates. Cody and Daisy think she's pretty awesome too. :)

I Have to Protect This House!

Such a BIG pillow for a dog head...

Cody having sweet dreams as he lays his head on the biggest pillow ever!

Pan out to get the whole picture...

Gloomy Day, Go Away!

We want to go outside, but not really. It's too ugly out there! Where's Mr. Sun?

Go ahead Daisy... Sit on my face...

I don't mind...

Don't Mind Me!

Just taking advantage of some peace and quiet without Daisy in my face...

Things that make Momma proud...

Good Morning!

How can you ever wake up on the wrong side of the bed when the first thing you see when you open your eyes are your cutie doggies staring back at you?
Good morning Cody!

Good morning Daisy!

Good morning Cody and Daisy!

Tight Fit!

Trying to squeeze all 80 pounds of meat on this little tiny rug square...

Sleepy Saturday Morning...

Cody all relaxed at the top of the stairs...

Diasy: Hey Cody! Whatcha doing?

Daisy and Keely!

Daisy had a blast playing with Keely at the park today! And what an exciting day- Keely never plays this rough and rowdy! She made her momma proud! (Jan- this video's for you. Evidence that your doggie does play!) :)

Dog Heads.
