Update and an idea

Here I am again updating my sad blog :) I have been given a new idea and I hope I can follow through with it because I get many laughs from what I share about my dogs with my co-workers. My dear friend Becca gave me the idea to make posts about all the funny things my cute little chihuahuas but first I am going to update what has been going on in my life.

I am a proud new aunt of a beautiful baby boy. His name is Greysen. He was born on November 29. The biggest bummer about the whole thing is that we were down in Arizona for Thanksgiving and had to leave a day early due to the snow and my sister-in-law went into labor the next day. To say the least I was upset and disappointed. Since the big day, I look forward to the regular text messages and pictures that Burke and Claudia send of all the sweet moments they are having with their son. To say the least I am so excited to have a nephew.

Now on to my funny little dogs. First there is Winston or better known as Wini. We got him in September of 09. Burke and Claudia had rescued him off of the canal behind their house. We like to joke that he grew up on the "streets". Here is a before picture....every time Winston does something that makes me grumpy like bark at people who come into my home, I just look at this picture and remember "he grew up on the streets"

Here is an after picture...to say the least he looks tons better.

My favorite thing are the little groans he makes when you pet him or when he is trying to find the "perfect" spot on the couch or on his bed. He also likes to try to play catch with himself by taking a toy and throwing it up in the air and trying to catch it....this he has not been able to do yet. I never knew how much having dogs would be like having children. Not only do I have to feed them at a specific times, I take them to the doctor all the time, and they are the cutest when they are asleep, and my favorite....picking off the poop that is coming out of their butts that is connected to a hair that they have ate due to too much licking of the paws. Yes, I do this more often then I would like to think about. It is all worth it...especially now when he is lying next to me cuddling and wanting me to pet him. Wini does have a favorite and that would be Kerry. Don't try to touch her, get anything next to her, or go into her bedroom when he is on the bed or you will get a rude awaking of the 1% ferocious Wini. He is very protective of her. That is Wini in a nutshell. He is a crazy and a funny dog and we love him and I am sure there will be lots of update and funny stories on him.

Well I think I am done for tonight. I will let you all know about the other addition to our home.
