SATURDAY SPA VISIT AT WESTLAKE RESERVE

Zoe' and Zeke went to 'The Spa" reluctantly this morning as the "SPA Massuse and Maseur " prepared their warm 1st bath. Zeke liked the event much better than Zoe'. Neither really likes the gentle, warm hair dryer and brushing. Here are some photos of the event. I think next time the Westlake Vet and Groomer might get this task as it was rather stressful for Bubby and Poppie. Too many "puppy tears". The vet said yesterday that it will not be too long before we need to begin brushing their teeth on a regular basis. I am glad that Maury is retired and home alot.....he will need the time to do all of the puppy grooming and care.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY

Today the puppies are 9 weeks old. We went to Pet Smart and bought them each a winter "puffy fur trimmed coat" and some puppy treats. They loved walking in front of our town home in their warm fur coats.

Later on Jason, Meredith, and Amelia dropped by to see the puppies and to get their Valentines' Day presents a few days early. Amelia got lots of 24 month sized knit tops, jeans, and jackets with lots of pink for the special day. Mommy Meredith and Daddy Jason got a card with something they can use later. Amelia has gotten so big that she has out grown most everything! She also liked the miniature Valentines Day snow globe with a Valentines heart inside! She knew exactly what to do do with it....shake, shake, shake it!

Amelia loved playing with the puppies again today. Here are some photos of our time together. Look who is "pooped" out after a busy Sunday afternoon!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUBBY! FEBRUARY 4TH

Jason and Amelia came over for a Sunday birthday breakfast and to bring Bubby a big bag of birthday goodies while Mommy Meredith was getting a break with a few hours of painting . What a great gift bag full of puppy treats, toys, a "bone-shaped" picture frame, dog cookies plus more. Zeke and Zoe' loved the presents too, especially the pink and blue chew bones with the ribbons attached. We had great pancakes, bacon, juice, coffee...and of course Amelia's favorite "Oreo Cookies"!

Greatgrandma Irene and Poppie gave Bubby funny cards and several checks for shopping. It will not be long until Bubby will go out on a shopping trip to buy some new spring clothes. Aaron and Caren called with a fantastic announcement....they are buying a brand new condo in New York...actually in Brooklyn. It is much closer to Manhattan. Bubby said...."It was the best birthday ever".

THE FIRST SNOW

We all stayed home today. Judy and Maury both worked from home. Zeke and Zoe' were delighted as they were "free" from their "all day" crate stay. They spent the day cuddled in our arms and playing together.

The snow was a new experience for them. They were not crazy about going out in the snow to "do their business". But, of course, I do not blame them much.....IT WAS COLD!!!!
