Not to easy, is it Mom?

Mommy thought that getting her annual Christmas card was going to be easy with a few liver treats. WRONG! That little one is my new foster sister, Bonnie and Manny is the reindeer. I’m the distinguished-looking Santa. Grandma was laughing at us during the photo shoot but The Mommy has some choice words. I hope Santa didn’t hear her!

Christmas Card Out Takes

Manny and I decided we were not cooperating for the card this year. I gave him a heads up. No amount of liver treats could make us behave. I hope Santa wasn’t watching!
CHEESE! I give Mommy a grin:

Manny would not smile:

Nope, we’re not both gonna look at you:

He sails through the air with the greatest of ease…

My uncle Manny, Grandma’s pug is pretty agile. He launches from the floor to the couch and can hurdle any human in the way in a single bound. His goal is to get to the back of the couch so he can jump up like a mad dog and bark at any unsuspecting kid, car or bird. And the rule is you shouldn’t drink on the couch, because he misses at times. Auntie learned this the hard way when she was sipping a soda the other day.

Last night he was being his usual maniac self and he was going full speed, ready to hurdle Mommy to get to his spot. Mommy reached out and caught him like a football in midair. It had all the humans laughing their butts off and him, looking quite bewildered as he looked into Mommy’s face instead of his intended target. Grandma laughed and said, “Great catch Sam!” Too funny!

Silly wipper-snapper. I was content to snack on my flossie on Grandpa’s lap. I’m no dummy.

She’s gone too far….

Mommy and Grandma LOVE Halloween. This has proved to be a constant source of torture in my two short years. This year is no exception. But at least now Manny shares my pain. Look at what I have to march in on Saturday.

I’m not really smiling:

Manny is not impressed:

Surf’s Up!

My friend Seamus just got a new kiddie pool in his yard and I was invited to come swim. Grandma bought me some new swim trunks for the occasion. Now I’m all ready to catch a few waves. How do I look?


Come on Mom, enough pictures!

Mother’s Day

Yesterday was Mother’s Day. Mommy got up early to help get two puggies to a new foster home and then she had breakfast with grandma. She came home, took me on a walk and then we took a pug nap. I settled into her arms and sighed in her ear and soon we were both in dreamland. My mommy was so tired! Then we got up and did some cleaning. I helped her with sorting the laundry. She said that sorting the laundry didn’t mean spreading it all over the house. Well why not? You can’t blame a pug for trying to help. I have to earn my allowance somehow!

Then Grandma came and got me so Mommy could have peace while she vacuumed. I have to protect her and the kitties from the vacuum by attacking it. I guess she didn’t think she needed protection. I hung out at Grandma and Grandpa’s and then Mommy came over. I gave her a frame with my picture in it for Mother’s Day. She said she loved it. Then Auntie came home and I gave her lots of kisses.

Last night Mommy and I fell asleep while watching Survivor. We had a full day. I hope all the other pug mommies had a great Mother’s Day!

Mother’s Day

I hear that Mother’s Day is on Sunday. That means I have to be a good boy for Mommy and Grandma. Maybe I should get them a present. I spent my allowance on flossies. Hmmm.... maybe Mommy would like to borrow my baby for the day. It’s still got a lot of squeak in it. I wonder what I should do for Grandma. She always laughs when I steal her slipper. I think I’ll run around the house like a crazy pug and steal all her shoes. That should make her day. Ok, problem solved, back to my nap.

Should I mention that Mommy left me HOME today? Something about her not wanting to drag me out in the rain because I was being a baby about it. Hmph! I have sensitive paws. And the rain makes my fur frizzy. Ok, too much thinking and whining. Nap time.
