Monte Sees A Bunny

Let me at 'em.

Birthday Time

We just got home from a birthday party. But not just any birthday party - a birthday party for Frogga. According to Maddy, Frogga just turned 22 - apparently frogs age 22 years every 6 months because Maddy and Momma got Frogga together in November.

And the birthday dinner was????

Pancakes and chocolate cake - Frogga's favorite.

I'ze had such a wonderful weekend. We camped out in our yard on Saturday night - that was a lot of fun. I'd say it was even more fun that camping in the woods because I was in my own backyard and had all the luxuries of home. Oh and I didn't have to worry about fending off coyotes and bears.

We got up early on Saturday morning and went for a long walk around the lake. We took some bread with us because there are little baby ducks and geeses in the lake and I'ze thing they are very hungry. And by how fast they ate up all the bread they clearly were. I was hoping that I would be able to swim with them but when I got too close thye'ze got scared, so I hung back and took video.

Then on Saturday night - after a nap with Momma - we went over to Carley's house to play - that was fun! We got lots of treats which almost makes up for the fact that the icy cream truck has been coming around every day and Momma isn't getting me any.

It's been a packed day

The day started with Momma running to the pet store to buy us food. With the vet putting us on a diet and me being really picky with my food lately, Momma decided to try something new. I had it at dinner tonight for the first time and it's very colorful - not like the normal brown kibble I get and it tastes pretty good. Also this morning Dale came over. I'ze met him before. He's a friend of Cole's dad and he was here cause Momma's having him do some housework for her... I'm hopin' that includes some pettins. This afternoon Momma and Poppa (mostly Poppa) planted a new flower garden on the side of our sunroom - it's gonna be interesting to see how it all works out cause it's all bulbs and roots - no actual flowers or big plants. Also this afternoon Poppa put up our bat houses - I'ze hopin' to get occupants soon. After all this we layed around for a bit and took a nap and watched some Sopranos reruns. Then Momma said we were going to go camping tonight - in the yard. So Poppa set up the tent and I'ze already checked it out - I can't wait! Tonight we'ze all went to the park and we'ze met a pup named T-Rex. If you can't guess by the name - he's huge! And he's only one year old - he's a German Sheppard and he towers over my brother. Summer is definitely here cause the mosquitoes are out - that's why we got the bat houses. Momma and Poppa got bit all over whiel at the park tonight. Poppa's actually considering putting up bat houses himself in the park to help with the bat problem. Wow - that must mean we're gonna be here for a while. Well - it's almost 10pm and my bedtime. I better go get ready for camping!

I'M PISSED

Momma and Poppa tricked me today. They told me I was going to the vet to get Momma's squirrel bite looked at (yeah, Momma's a dummy, she tried to feed a squirrel when she was in TX. Apparently the squirrel thought Momma's finger looked better than the cookie she was trying to feed him.) Anyway - we'ze was at the vet for a checkup for me. AND the vet said I need to lose 15 lbs!!!! NO WAY! Momma says I won't be getting ice cream every day anymore! This isn't fair!! Monte needs to lose 10.

Momma's Away

Momma's gone for the weekend to visit Poppa. They are in Austin, TX and I'm staying with Aunt Corey. It's a girls weekend cause Uncle Crumley is gone for the weekend. Monte is here but heavily outnumbered. I talked to Momma earlier and she said she saw the coolest thing! There is a bridge in Austin where bats live underneath. At dusk they all fly out to go find food - 1.6 million bats!!! How cool is that! She said she wasn't able to catch any to bring home for my bat houses though. We say Rocky yesterday. His neighbor is building a pond and Rocky got to play in it. Aunt Corey said no way to us because the pond was a big mud puddle right now - darn. We're having fun here with L&M and last night I ran upstairs at bedtime to say goodnight. I wish Aunt Corey would let me sleep with them. I wonder what we'll do today. I miss you Momma and Poppa - can't wait to see you when you return tomorrow.

The Bat Houses are on their way

I'ze just got an email that says they'll arrive tomorrow. Momma and Poppa learned all about bats when they went to the Grand Canyon last year. They brought me home some pics and they are adorbable. Then I started noticing them when I went to the park at night. They are so graceful - they way they glide through the sky. So Momma ordered some bat houses for me a couple of weeks ago and they're finally arriving. Yippee! I can't wait to have Poppa put them up for me. I'm going to go to the park late tonight so that I can spread the news to as many of them as possible. I think they'll find the new housing to be enjoyable and spacious. Each one fits up to 20 bats so they can have lots of friends over all the time!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MYRA

Happy Mother's Day!

Poppa is home tomorrow!!!

I can't wait for Poppa to get home tomorrow. I'ze got so many kisses saved up for him! In addition to missin' him it's been rainin' all week. We'ze sick of the rain. Although the sun did come out for a while this afternoon and Momma took us to the park for a long walk. We ran into Cooper and played for a while. Then we saw Lucy and played with her and her human sister. Her human sister kept throwing sticks in the creek for us to go fetch. It was so much fun. Poppa - we miss you - can't wait for you to get home.

now poppa's gone

and I'm not happy about it. The good things though is that I've been sleeping in bed for two weeks now and hopefully will continue to do so for the next two weeks. :-) I'm really spoiled these days. I'm kinda sad too cause I just found out that Cole isn't coming over tomorrow. She was supposed to be here for a few days but her parents cancelled their plans. Darn. We were looking forward to a puppy sleepover.

MOMMA'S HOME!!!

and the icy cream truck came by - what a coincidence! We haven't had ice cream since the day Momma left. And Carley came over and Momma got her and icy cream too! Along with the icy cream, Momma also brought the rain - we're hoping it stops so that Momma will take us to the park.
