Can You Hear Me Now?

I don't like it when mom is on the phone. Her hands should always be on me not on anything else, unless she is fixing me food, then she is free to be away from me.

Well, here she is chatting away while I wait under my cozy Christmas gift blanket for her to be free and rub my belly.

Is it cold in your area? Chicago has been super cold lately and I don't know how much longer I can stay under blankets. Don't get me wrong, I love blankets, but I kind of miss spring a nice summer days. I want to go on super long walks and smell the grass.

Mom, are you talking to Spring or Summer? Can they hear me? When are they coming back?

Where Is my New Winter Coat?

I thought mom said we would be getting a new winter coat, but when is this happening?

In the past year I have grown - mom says I've gotten fatter but I don't believe her.

This red coat, which complements my complexion, is too tight on me. It makes me feel like a sausage link. The Velcro becomes undone as I walk and the arms hurt my little arm pits.

I don't like that I can't turn around easily and I don't need to tell you how uncomfortable it is to do number 2 in this little coat.

I want a new coat and I want it soon. I can't let the girls in the neighborhood see me in this! They might think I'm out of shape and I am not!

Christmas 2013

This Christmas time I did not spend it alone.

I think it was due to the snow, but mom and master stayed home with me and we had Christmas breakfast as a family.

They opened gifts and as usual, video taped me opening mine.

Here I am with my new friend Dognny - he is a dog with bunny ears or a bunny with a dog face. Dognny is soft and cuddly and after we wrestled for about 30 minutes we had to take a nap.

I also got chew toys, treats and money! Mom says we will be using the money to go shopping for a new winter coat.

Merry Christmas!
