Busted

When we are not at home, we crate the pugs. They know the sound of the garage door so when we come home they are always awake and ready to give us a big greeting.

Henry likes to pretend that he never sleeps while we are away (even though we know that is not true). So, I love when we come home and sneak up on the pugs and find them fast asleep in their crate snoring away.

Grammy Gifts

As most of you may know, Grammy pug sits 4 days a week. She spends quality time with the pugs often. While she is here she also tends to some of the tasks that go unanswered by us on a regular but necessary basis, such as watering the plants, wiping down the area near the trash can and she even leaves behind a special gift here & there.

We have a guest room where the decor is a jungle theme. The comforter is a black & beige zebra stripe. The pillow shams are like a leopard print. There are jungle pictures on the wall. There is also an off-white leather chair in the room. Well, until recently, this chair had been pillowless. Since we keep the door to this room closed and do not regularly visit this room, this weekend when I had a reason to go in there, I discovered a zebra stripped pillow decorating the previously empty chair. So, I am not entirely sure when Grammy left this pillow behind, but it did not take Benny longer than a minute to own the pillow as his own. After that, the other 2 pugs came to join him.

So, we wanted to be sure to thank Grammy for being a wonderful pillow leprechaun leaving behind a great goodie loved by the pugs and of course matching the decor of the room. Grammy would not have it any other way.

No Tilt

When it comes to head tilts, Henry is at the opposite end of the spectrum of Ben. It is almost impossible to get a head title out of Henry.

It's like he is too smart for his own good. If you pepper him with the same line of questioning that is sure to get a big head tilt out of Ben, you get a stare from Henry.

Me: Henry, have you seen mommy?

Henry: Yes, I'm looking at her.

Me: Did Grammy come to see you today?

Henry: She did.

Me: How about G-Ma?

Henry: She did not.

Me: Is G-Ma going to come see you?

Henry: As far as I am aware she does not have a trip booked.

Me: Did you eat your lunch today?

Henry: Of course.

Me: How about Benny?

Henry: What about Benny?

Me: Where's Benny?

Henry: Over there. About to scratch his face. You better put that cone back on him.

Me: Where's your sister?

Henry: Next to Benny.

Me: Looney?

Henry: Yes, that is her nickname.

Extra Credit

After we wrapped up Swim Camp this weekend, Henry decided that he wanted to take one more lap. At this point, we had taken the pugs out of their life jackets to keep them cool. (No sense wearing the jackets on land). So, when Henry jumped into the pool, he was in for quite a surprise. Swimming sure is a lot harder without his vest. He made it to the step as he usually does, but he pace was much slower and he had to work a lot harder for it.

Field Trip

Henry got to take a field trip to Grammy's the other night. While he sees Grammy almost every day when she "pug sits", he loves going to see Grammy at Grammy's house. Not only does he get extra lovings, but he also gets extra special treats!

Concerned

Why all the concerned faces? Puffy is in the wash!

Some little pug, left his best friend puffy out in the yard and it got soaked during an afternoon thunderstorm. When puffy was finally saved from the yard, it was so filthy that it had to go in the wash. Things are always a bit tense in the house until we are sure that puffy successfully makes it out of the wash.

Lucky for us all, puffy came out in one piece and no worse for the wear. Whoosh!

Enjoy the weekend!
