Happy New Year’s Eve

We are officially ready to party! Just a few more hours til we pop open some bubbly! Is there anything better than getting to stay up late, eating extra munchies, poppin’ bottles, and watching fireworks? Cheers to all! 🎉 🍾 🎆 

Merry Christmas

 

We are enjoying family time and ready to open gifts. Merry Christmas to all!🎄

Big Changes

Bubsy: Big changes are coming our way, are you ready Sissy? 

Sissy: Nope, not at all. 

Bubsy: Monday is the big day for mom. She starts her new job. Her hours will be drastically different. That’s a big change for all of us. 

Sissy: Nope, not dad. He’ll sleep right on thru this big change. 😴

Bubsy: Oh and sissy, guess what? Another big change will happen next Sunday. 

Sissy: Say what? What more could change for us?

Bubsy: Well I’m not sure it’s a change exactly but you know, something different is coming our way. Literally…coming our way. 

Sissy: I’m so confused. 😕 

Bubsy: Next Sunday grandma from AZ arrives for a visit. 

Sissy: Does she have permission to come? I don’t recall signing off on this visit. 

Bubsy: I don’t think she needs your permission when she has momma’s. 

Sissy: Momma doesn’t rule this house…I do! 😉 

Bubsy: Don’t let mom hear you say that. 

Sissy: Well in all seriousness, I’m glad you told me now. Maybe I can adjust to this idea of a houseguest by next Sunday. 

Bubsy: You better. You kind of have to.😉

Sissy: So many things to adjust to lately. 

Bubsy: Yep, I hear ya! 

Sissy: The change in mom’s schedule is definitely something I’m more concerned about. I mean, I need my beauty sleep. 💤 

Bubsy: You better go to bed early.

Sissy: That’s a joke. The Cowboys are on right now. And playing the Eagles. There’s no sleeping in this house until the game is over. Dad is making way too much noise. Being loud cheering and louder jeering. 

Bubsy: Well halftime of the game is almost over so it’s time to post the pic of the week and get back to the game. By the way sissy, can we please have a “normal” photo shoot. My face in the pic says it all…I’m questioning what sissy is doing yet again. 🙄

Sissy: 🤣…I’m clearly laughing at mom. 

Candlelight Christmas

Bubsy: It was a busy week for mom.

Sissy: Isn’t it always a busy week for mom? 

Bubsy:  Pretty much, sissy. Mom knows how to stay busy. Anyway, her focus was preparing for a fun event at church. She went to church on Wednesday after work to help them set up for a candlelight Christmas event. Then on Friday night she went to the candlelight Christmas event. 

Sissy: She said she had lots of fun. She came home with a goodie bag and an ornament for our tree. Only bummer was the treats she came home with were not for us. 😏

Bubsy: Mom loves that she is getting to know more ladies and starting to feel like she fits in at church. Which is good for her. She needs that network of support. 

Sissy: Speaking of busy, I noticed you’ve stayed quite busy today, bro. What have you been up to?

Bubsy: I was busy helping mom wrap gifts and do laundry. I believe I was most helpful with the gift wrapping. I stood in the way of mom reaching for things every chance I got. 😉

Sissy: Sounds like you were very helpful, way to go. Wish I could be more helpful. Although I carried a dirty sock away from the laundry room early this morning and mom had to chase after me to get the sock back. So I can be helpful too. 😉😊

Bubsy: I was quite proud of you for that. We actually both stole a sock and ran off. Mom had to figure out which one of us to chase first. 

Sissy: Unfortunately she chased me first. I need to be faster like you. 

Bubsy: The key is to never look back. Snatch the sock, start running and never look back. Mom might catch up if you look back at her. 

Sissy: Thanks for the tip! 🤗 

Bubsy: Well let’s end this and move into the early evening part of our Sunday. Below are some pics of the centerpieces and her table setting at the Christmas event our momma went to. The pic of the camel centerpiece was created fully out of gingerbread! Incredibly creative and completely edible too.🐪

 

Almost Done

Bubsy: A cold Thanksgiving break is almost done. Turkey day is done but the cold remains. What was your favorite part, sissy? 

Sissy: Of course, having mom home with us. It might be difficult to see her go off to work tomorrow morning. 

Bubsy: I agree! It’s been fun. Mom, however, could’ve relaxed more than she has. But nothing new there. 

Sissy: She doesn’t know how to relax. Although she’s doing pretty good this afternoon, so far. She’s watching the Texans play the Jaguars.

Bubsy: Are you sure she’s relaxing watching the Jags? She’s so obsessed with them and there’s so much cheering and hollering going on, I’m not sure it’s relaxing. 🤔

Sissy: Don’t worry, I’m relaxing enough for myself and mom. 😉

Bubsy: The other noteworthy thing about Thanksgiving weekend is that it’s now Christmastime, so mom says. The parents spent time on Friday putting up our Christmas tree and decorating the house. 

Sissy: It took them forever to put the tree up. They had issues with a string of lights going dark in one large section. They spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to solve the issue. 

Bubsy: I took about three naps while they were working on the light issue. But before my napping I was extremely helpful unloading one of the Christmas bins. There’s a video at the bottom of this post just to prove how helpful I am. 😉

Sissy: Well bro, let’s snuggle up with mom as she gets ready to watch the Bills and Eagles. 

Bubsy: That’s not going to be a quiet game to watch with these parents of ours. Dad hates the Eagles. He’ll be cheering against them. And so will you, little sissy. 

Sissy: Yep, not an Eagles fan. Something about that mascot of theirs freaks me out and I start barking my little head off. 

Bubsy: Hope everyone had a good turkey day and got some Christmas shopping started too. Mom said she’s done quite a bit of shopping online. In case anyone is wondering sissy and I, have yet to start our shopping. Have a good week, friends! 🐾

Happy Thanksgiving

 

We shall keep this short on words today. Just dropping by to post our Thanksgiving day pic and a bonus pic of me in the hat mom made for her students. Hope everyone out there has a wonderfully yummy turkey day. We can hardly wait for our turkey day treats. 🦃

Big News

Bubsy: Boy, do we have BIG news! So someone in our house can be extra thankful on turkey day, because someone just landed a new job!

Sissy: I was rather confused at first about all the excitement. 

Bubsy: Confused by what? How it all went down?

Sissy: Well yes! I was stunned. 

Bubsy: Yes, it is stunning. Dad has been looking for a job since July. Now prepare to be stunned…Dad is NOT the one that just scored the new job. 

Sissy: Nope, not dad. It’s momma!!!! Our mom decided to take the advice of a friend to try for a job at a new school opening in January. It was a total whim that mom even decided one night to send in her résumé. And since October she’s been going thru the motions and requirements for the new school. Which included multiple rounds of interviews and an extensive reference checklist. She totally was not thinking it was going to happen. And she was fine with it not happening, since she already has a job she loves.

Sissy: Then BAM….yesterday she got news…she’s been hired as the very first teacher for her level. Oh my dogness! 

Bubsy: Oh my dogness is right! Dad was floored when he got home from getting his haircut and heard about it. I’m not sure he thought she’d get the job either. 😉 It won’t be easy for her to leave her current teaching job but overall this is a better opportunity…better pay and better benefits. The benefits was the key reason she even entertained the thought of sending them her résumé. 

Sissy: All the details will get finalized early next week when she goes to sign her contract. I hope they pay her well, because I have needs. 😉

Bubsy: Oh sissy! You have needs that money can’t buy. Like an attitude shift, just kidding. I’m used to your sassy behavior. Anyway, things will be interesting next week. And as for this long holiday weekend, we begin it knowing momma for sure has the job! Woohoo! 🎉 

Thanksgiving Week

Bubsy: Above is a pic of the dry erase board that is on our fridge. Our mom is ridiculous about writing and drawing silly things on it each day. Now to more important things…how are you doing, sissy? Feeling better?

Sissy: I’m back to normal but yesterday was a little ruff. 

Bubsy: We learned something yesterday about sissy. Her little system can’t handle treats made with duck. No more duck for her. 🦆 

Sissy: Clearly, I’m not the only one that can’t handle duck. The sun devils can’t handle ducks either. They got devoured by them yesterday. Duck, duck, they laid a goose egg. 

Bubsy: 🤣…lookout sissy is throwing shade. 

Sissy: Enough about that, what else is up? 

Bubsy: Let’s see…how about we state the obvious…it’s Thanksgiving week. Which means mom is extremely busy. She’s got her ingredients for everything after another trip to pick up groceries. Tomorrow she’ll make a dip after she gets home from work. Clean the house on Tuesday after work, then Wednesday it’s an all day baking event. How much of these kitchen sessions will you be attending, sissy?

Sissy: None of it. I’m not a hang out in the kitchen type of pupper. 

Bubsy: I’ll be in and out of the kitchen to check on her progress. But neither of us hangs out in the kitchen much. However, when mom has long baking sessions she’s been known to bring a bed for me in the kitchen and I’ll lay down. 

Sissy: He loves a nice cozy bed. I love the couch and a bed at night. So if mom drags the couch into the kitchen I’ll be happy to lay on it while she bakes.🤣

Bubsy: In case anyone was wondering it’s raining again here. Lots of rain since fall officially started. 

Sissy: Too much rain. ☔️ But at least my Uber has been very good at giving me a Lyft when I venture out to the backyard. 

Bubsy: Impressive word play, sissy! Uber and Lyft I’ve never used either company. My feet get me where I want to go. 

Sissy: Oh geez, we are currently working hard typing this post but all of a sudden mom has erupted with her yelling/cheering at the TV. She’s busy watching the Bills. She’s obsessed with the Bills and Chargers. 

Bubsy: Don’t forget the Jags. She likes the up and coming quarterbacks of those teams. So if either of those teams is on tv she’s definitely tuned in. Well it’s time to wrap this up and get on with our day before tonight’s interesting football matchup…Vikings and Broncos. Our pic below features the first of what is likely a lot more to come of seeing sissy and I in plaid. This time of year mom gets a little mad about plaid. 😉 Have a great Thanksgiving week!

Sissy: And check in on Thursday to see our special turkey day post. 🦃 

The Melee

Bubsy: Who should tell this story, sissy? We had a crazy week. It was a true rollercoaster. 🎢 

Sissy: Your life flashed before my eyes not once but twice. First we suffered thru more rainy weather. It’s like we live in Seattle or something. Then on Wednesday I witnessed Bubsy getting stabbed repeatedly. I was astonished once again, when mom stood by and calmly let him get stabbed as she chatted with the perpetrator(the vet). 

Bubsy: Oh geez, pardon my ultra dramatic sissy. I went to the vet and got my shots. I’m in optimum condition and the vet said I’m “extra” lean. Sounded like a good thing to me so I was happy. And mom seemed happy too. 

Sissy: For those that aren’t aware, our mom always takes both of us when one of us has to go to the vet. I love going to the vet when it’s Bubsy getting shots or tended too. Because I get treats and no suffering for me occurred.😉

Bubsy: I literally limped for a day after my shots. It wasn’t until Friday that my limp went away. 

Sissy: It’s a good thing you were back to 100% by Friday because you needed to be on your “A” game. 

Bubsy: Now for the long story…It was a beautiful Friday morning. The rain had dried up and it was perfect weather. There we were on our walk. It was our quick walk we take right before mom leaves for work. We had just turned the corner to head towards our house, when all of a sudden a unleashed dog came darting at us. Mom stepped in front of sissy as she tried to grab me. The other dog seemed to be after me. He was chasing me in a circle. Mom got knocked down, she felt sissy behind her still. She grabbed me and pulled me close to her. The other dog was trampling us, mainly mom. The owner of the dog finally got a hold of her dog and started to walk away. The owner of the dog never apologized. Never offered to help mom up. Never asked if any of us were okay. The owner of the dog said ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO OUR MOM. As mom got up she looked behind her and sissy was gone. Completely vanished. Nowhere in sight. Mom hit the panic button. She yelled to the other dog’s owner, “where is my littlest dog?” The other dog’s owner did not respond and never said a word to mom. Another neighbor ran to the scene to help mom. Mom checked me over quickly, then handed me to the neighbor that came to help us. The neighbor took me to clean me up, I was a very muddy boy. Meanwhile, mom stayed outside looking for sissy. Mom ran up the street and around the corner and no sissy. Then another neighbor yelled down the street to mom that sissy was standing at our front door. Mom was very overcome with emotion and adrenaline and ran home to sissy. The neighbor that took me to clean me up for mom soon brought me to our front door too. I had no injuries from the melee but mom is a little banged up. She’s got some bruises from the big dog stepping on her, as well as a sore elbow from using it to intervene between me and the big dog. We have no idea how or at what point sissy left the scene. But clearly she left the scene.

Sissy: I like getting sassy but I don’t like to stick around to possibly become a snack for a big dog so I was outta there. 

Bubsy: I’m very glad you were unharmed sissy. But running from mom is not good. However, these were special circumstances. I think you have proven you are a believer in the philosophy of “every man for himself”. But you’ve also proved you know home. And you know where your safe place is. 

Sissy: I am unlike that other dog. I would never think to leave my home to dart after another dog or animal. 

Bubsy: But sissy, can you imagine the panic attack you gave mom when she got up from being stepped on by a huge dog and you weren’t anywhere in her sight. 

Sissy: I regret that part. But my instinct to get home to my safe place took over in the midst of the melee.

Bubsy: Mom of course wishes the whole thing never happened but she’s happy neither of us was hurt. She said she’d rather have a few injuries than deal with one of us being injured. 

Sissy: I guess, she’s a typical mom. Whether you are a mom to human kids or fur kids, a true mom would rather be injured then see her kiddo injured. 

Bubsy: In other news, we’ve enjoyed a fun but low key weekend. We had company over last night so we stayed up extra late. Today has been rather low key and we are currently missing the first part of the Cowboys game to post this. Perhaps, we should wrap this up and get to the game. Have a beautiful week, friends.🐾…And as you can see in the pic below, sissy was being a bit lazy with her posing during this photo shoot. 📸 

Texas Size

Bubsy: What a week it was. How are you doing, sissy?

Sissy: It was a bit of a rollercoaster week. 

Bubsy: Let’s review things for the people at home. First up, our weather. Mercy me, shiver my timbers!!! We had record coldness for Halloween. The cold weather lessened just a bit by Halloween night but clearly the weather put a damper on the trick-or-treating. 🍬🎃

Sissy: Mom was bundling us up every time we went out. You’ve heard of a “hot mess”? Well I was more like a cold mess 🥶 

Bubsy: She’s hot tempered and a mess 99% of the time so the term “hot mess” fits her. 😉 Thankfully the oddly timed cold snap has left and our temperatures have returned to normal. We didn’t need jackets this morning and mom is back to wearing short sleeves.👍 This past week was finally a little busy for dad. As he had to serve jury duty and got put on a case for two whole days. Hmm, what else happened this week?

Sissy: We had time change in the wee hours of the morning. We actually got to walk in the light of the day thanks to that hour disappearing. Where the hour went is beyond me but I was told to enjoy it disappearing because it’s the last time it will happen. 

Bubsy: That’s right sissy. This will be the last time we turn back the clocks. In springtime we will spring forward and we will STAY FORWARD!!!! Legislation has made daylight savings time PERMANENT. So when it comes back around in March of 2024 it stays and never leaves. Year round we will be two hours ahead of AZ, where momma’s family lives. Enough about that boring time stuff…what else happened this week, sissy?

Sissy: I dressed up as Piglet.🐷

Bubsy: We already know that. What else happened, some craziness exploded along about Wednesday. Do you recall?

Sissy: Oh geez, how can I forget. First things were weird because dad couldn’t sit still late Wednesday night. He kept pacing the floor. Meanwhile, mom seemed rather calm as she texted with two different cousins of hers in AZ. And then…

Bubsy: And then…it happened, the last out happened. And our house immediately exploded in loud hooting, hollering, and jumping up and down on the couch. Never seen dad jump up and down on the couch before. Next thing we knew dad was grabbing champagne and we were dodging a champagne cork that flew out of the bottle while mom attempted to cover my ears and sissy’s ears. 

Sissy: It wasn’t just inside our house that was loud, the outside soon caught up. Lots of honking of horns, loud yelling, and music filled the air outside for a few hours. 

Bubsy: Going to bed at a decent time did not happen for mom or myself or anyone else in the city limits.🙉 For those that might be clueless what happened in our area on this past Wednesday…the Texas Rangers won the World Series! For the first time EVER! 

Sissy: Our city has been on quite the high since Wednesday. You can’t go anywhere without seeing shirts, flags, or even billboards marking this special achievement. 

Bubsy: Schools and workplaces even closed early to allow students and parents to go to the parade on Friday. 

Sissy: I think our city has celebrated big! 

Bubsy: Like they say, “everything is bigger in Texas”. The first ever World Series celebration has been Texas-size! Only negative is, the victory came against mom’s hometown team, the Diamondbacks. But it’s okay, she’s in a house full of Texans so she’s been forced to celebrate too.😉🎉…Now the pressure is on, come on Cowboys catch the title fever and go win a title this season! 

Sissy: Oh geez, not sure I can handle that kind of celebration again just three months from now.😬

Bubsy: Don’t worry sissy, you can handle it. Now let’s wish the people out there a good new week and go catch some zzz’s before the Cowboys game. And lastly, big congrats to our home team…the Rangers! 

Happy Halloween 🎃

Bubsy: Mom had a Winnie The Pooh theme in her classroom for Halloween, so of course her fur babies had to participate with the theme too.😉

Sissy: As promised here are our Halloween pics. We included a candid pic of our momma, who was Tigger. Her tail is barely visible and so is her shirt but her ears are at least obvious in this pic. 🐯 

Bubsy: Everyone have a great Halloween and stay safe! 

Sissy: And remember…no tricks just treats! 

Bonus Pics

Mom decided to let me, yours truly….the Bubsy…post some bonus pics for your viewing pleasure. As you can see in the middle pic, I took a turn as Cheer Bear.🌈 😃 Have a beautiful night and great Monday! 

Almost Halloween

Bubsy: It seems way too early in the season to be saying this…but sissy, it’s COLD outside. 🥶 

Sissy: I’m currently singing that song…“rain, rain, go away, come back never”.

Bubsy: Not sure that’s how the song goes, but I get it. The amount of rain we are dealing with is incredible. We are under a flood warning until Wednesday. WEDNESDAY! 

Sissy: We can’t handle rain all the way thru to Wednesday. I’ll lose my mind by then. 🤯

Bubsy: We might need a canoe soon. Let me just add, if Globe Life Field did not have a roof the World Series would still be waiting to start. Because we’ve had nonstop rain. 

Sissy: One round of rain ends and another round begins. And our not so brilliant mom decided we could brave the rain yesterday and get a walk in. She was very wrong. By the time we got home I looked about 3 sizes smaller than I was when we left the house as my beautiful hair was a soggy disaster. 

Bubsy: No joke, sissy looks just like a drowned rat when she’s wet. And she’s so small when wet, it’s like where did she go? 🤣🐀

Sissy: You don’t look much better when you are wet, bro. 

Bubsy: So let’s see, what else is going on?

Sissy: It’s almost Halloween. Mom spent time last week stressing about her costume. And later she’s going to Target to get some stuff for her class.🎃 

Bubsy: That means it’s almost costume time. I love wearing costumes. How about you, sissy? I know you are still kind of new to costumes. 

Sissy: Oh mercy, no. I’m not into costumes. And most of the ones mom tries on me, I get lost in. I’m not into costumes just like I’m not into clothes. I’m a canine nudist at heart. 😉

Bubsy: Sissy, sissy, sissy! Oh geez! You shouldn’t admit to being a canine nudist.🙈

Sissy: I’m good with admitting it. 😉

Bubsy: I’m curious to see what we will be for Halloween. Mom loves dressing us up. I think my favorite costume has been my pirate costume. I have lots of costumes though that I’ve never wore for Halloween. Instead I’ve wore them to different themed parties. Best part of Halloween is seeing the kids come to our house in costumes. I love greeting every kiddo.

Sissy: I heard there are treats, I think that sounds like the best part to me. No tricks just treats, please!👻

Bubsy: Let’s wrap this up and invite everyone to tune in on Tuesday to see us in our costumes. Our blog post will be up late in the day when mom dresses us for greeting trick-or-treaters. Everyone have a fun Sunday! 

Bonus Care Bear pic at the bottom…not a Halloween pic just a costume pic from a themed bear party.🧸

Finally Here

Bubsy: Whew! We finally got here to do our blog today. 

Sissy: Things are running behind today because mom has been doing nonstop household chores. First, she vacuumed then she mopped. And she started her day cleaning one of the bathrooms. 🙄 

Bubsy: Mom has been so busy cleaning because she has a two day state required teacher’s seminar she has to attend two evenings this week. So her typical routine of cleaning when she gets home from work won’t be happening twice this week. 

Sissy: So mom is busy cleaning then doing our photo shoot but what has dad been doing? 

Bubsy: You can find him on the couch. All other days you can find him on the tennis court. 🎾 

Sissy: Yep, mom has groomed me, bathed both of us, vacuumed, mopped, cleaned the bathrooms, done our photo shoot and dad has played tennis or watched football this weekend. 

Bubsy: Dad is living the dream! He lives a more easygoing life than us.😉

Sissy: Geez, hope dad never reads this because we put him on blast in this blog post!😬

Bubsy: Shots fired by us and yet we look so innocent! Truth hurts sometimes!😉 And now dad expects mom to get it together and go out with his friends tonight.

Sissy: If I had any money, I’d bet it all on mom staying home with us tonight. She looks tired and she’s got a TOUGH work week starting tomorrow. 

Bubsy: I guess we shall see. Perhaps mom will stay home with us and let dad go alone out with his friends. One thing is for sure, you and I will be home tonight! 😉 Just chilling watching some baseball and football. 

Sissy: Let’s pop some popcorn for the double game night. 🍿 

Bubsy: You got it sissy. I recently figured out how to work the microwave.👍

Sissy: You open the blinds in the window every morning and now you work the microwave…your talent amazes me. 🙄…I’m being sarcastic! 😉

Bubsy: Well sissy, let’s post some pics from our photo shoot and get out of here for today. This was one long photo shoot because someone wasn’t cooperating fully. And someone else had to step up to the plate and finish the photo shoot all on my own. Gotta love my baseball analogy! 😉…Go Rangers!

Sissy: Just an added note about this photo shoot. It’s true I wasn’t into it. Gave mom my traditional side eye before walking off set. As for you…you were clearly having fun. Especially on top of the stool.

Bubsy: So much fun! I was having a slight sunnies malfunction but I’m a pro, I kept on going. 📸

More Celebrating

Bubsy: Mom walked in the door from work on Friday and immediately went to the fridge to get all the ingredients out to bake a cheesecake for a cousin’s bday party on Saturday. She was like a top spinning around the kitchen making cheesecake then switching it up and making dinner. 

Sissy: I couldn’t stand around and watch her, it was too much. I went off to play with my favorite toy until dinner was served. 

Bubsy: Skipping ahead to Saturday we all got in the car and headed to the bday party. As soon as we arrived the word “surprise” was announced a couple times as mom nonchalantly walked into our Aunt’s kitchen with a bday gift bag in one hand and a Sissy in the other hand. Well actually sissy was tucked under mom’s arm…like a football.🤣

Sissy: Is it my imagination or has mom milked this bday? Mom’s always partying. 

Bubsy: Actually, I think things just got a little delayed since mom wasn’t feeling well the weekend of her birthday and she wasn’t well last weekend when they tried to celebrate either. Her bday weekend was very minimal since she was still sick. Family just came over briefly to at least see her. So finally, this weekend was the weekend she got to celebrate some. But she had no idea her bday was going to be celebrated alongside dad’s cousin’s bday last night. What a fun surprise. 

Sissy: Speaking of cousin’s, I met a whole slew of people and pups for the first time last night. 

Bubsy: Did you really meet anyone? You didn’t come off mom’s lap all night. 

Sissy: I was a little overwhelmed by the amount of people, pups, and cats. But mom said I did well.

Bubsy: She was thankful you didn’t act a fool. You actually kept it somewhat together….well that is until mom had to go to the bathroom. And then you nearly lost your mind. 

Sissy: I nearly lost my mind because dad was unable to handle mom’s simple instructions to hold “little cupcake”(aka…me). The audacity of him to put me down on the floor about 45 seconds after mom handed me to him. So I made a beeline to go run to mom in the bathroom. She had the door closed, of course, so I sat outside the door whining loud enough so she could hear me. 

Bubsy: 🙄…I have no words for some of sissy’s antics. Meanwhile, I was playing chase with my cousin named Harley in the backyard. Harley is a bulldog and makes funny breathing noises but we had tons of fun. Before we knew it though it was time to go home. Sissy and I were both so tired we slept the entire way home then went to bed almost as soon as we arrived home.

Sissy: I would’ve went straight from the car to my bed if mom hadn’t insisted on taking us out in the backyard when we got home. 

Bubsy: In other big bday news, our cat sister celebrated her bday this weekend. And her new bed arrived early this morning. Mom got her a new bed weeks ago. Waited until her bday to present it to Piper and quickly realized the bed was too small for our BIG cat sister. But mom and dad are pleased that the new bed seems to be a better size. Now Piper just needs to accept it as her new bed.😉

Sissy: Well it’s time to wish everyone a great new week and also enjoy the rest of your Sunday! Below is Piper’s bday pic with all three of us for her big decade milestone.

Bubsy: Mom gets applause for getting all three of us to cooperate for this pic. Two of us are not easy to deal with! You can guess which two.🤣 Have a good week!

Our Friday

Bubsy: I had quite the Friday. Everything seemed normal when I got up, except mom wouldn’t let me have any water. That part was strange to me. Soon things turned abnormal, when mom grabbed my leash and loaded me and sissy into the car. A millisecond later I was walking thru the doorway of my vet’s office. Sissy was being carried in mom’s arms. But it was only me that was being checked in at the front desk. Next thing I knew mom was showering me in kisses right before handing my leash over to the nurse. At that point things got fuzzy for me but apparently I was there for my teefers to be cleaned.🦷 So sissy, what were you doing while I was busy at the vet? 

Sissy: First off, I must admit I was a bit fuzzy as to why we were leaving you behind at the vet. Once I got home again with mom. I ate some breakfast. Then mom swooped me up in her arms and off we went to go shopping. 

Bubsy: Sounds much more fun then what I was doing. Where did you go? 

Sissy: Hmm, let’s see. First we went to Petco then two different Petsmarts. Mom was busy searching for new leashes for us and a new cat bed for our cat-sister. We were very unsuccessful. After going to three different stores we only bought one toy for you and two treats we can’t even have until Halloween.🎃 

Bubsy: You failed, sissy. You should’ve convinced mom to buy us more treats.😋 

Sissy: You're right. I should’ve been more convincing about needing more treats. So how did you feel after getting your teeth cleaned?

Bubsy: After coming home I was a bit dazed still for about 30 minutes. Then I was unstoppable. Playing, doing zoomies in the backyard and thankfully finally getting to eat and drink something. I didn’t take a nap until around 9:30 that night. Mom was surprised, she expected me to come home and be rather lethargic. But nope, I came home and did all my usual activities. 

Sissy: Well you look good bro! I mean your teeth look good. 🦷 

Bubsy: Now it is time to turn the page on all that and get ready for our cat-sister’s bday. 

Sissy: Oh geez, I guess that means a trip back to the store to buy her a gift. 

Bubsy: Hope you’ve been saving your pennies.💰 As for me, I’ve already got a gift for the cat…😉 Well friends it’s time to wrap this post up and get back to our Sunday activities, like resting up before the Cowboys game tonight.🏈…below are a couple pics. That first pic…my teeth are so bright now, I need shades!🤣😎 And the second pic….wrapping up sissy to give to the cat for her bday. Sissy is the gift that keeps on giving. Giving tons of sass, that is.🤣

Let’s Celebrate

Bubsy: 🥳 The last week of September in our house means there’s two things to celebrate. 🎉 My Gotcha day is 6 days before momma’s bday.

Sissy: I’m still tired from all the partying, bro.🥱 

Bubsy: Last night was a very late night. We had a fiesta to celebrate mom’s birthday. The tacos and nachos were being hoarded by all the humans.🌮 

Sissy: Not to mention the cake! They hoarded the cake too.🎂 

Bubsy: The party goers had a game night. Lots of trivia answers being thrown out and bingo terms being called.  The bingo game was fiesta themed, terms like: piñata, salsa, and maracas were called instead of numbers.🪇 

Sissy: My favorite part was sitting on mom’s lap while she played bingo. She needed a lot of help from me. 

Bubsy: I’m sure she appreciated your assistance. My favorite part was helping her open her gifts. I’m very delicate and determined to help get the job done. 

Sissy: Enough about mom’s party what about your little celebration for your Gotcha day, what was your favorite part for that? 

Bubsy: The gifts of course! I went to bed that night with a new pumpkin toy. 🎃 

Sissy: Four months from now I’ll try out one of the new  toys. 

Bubsy: It will be too late then. Mom cycles out our holiday toys. So the pumpkin will come up missing …knowing mom, the day after Thanksgiving she’ll snatch it up with the rest of the autumn decor around our house. 

Sissy: That’s okay, as has been established, I’m loyal. I’m loyal to certain toys only. 

Bubsy: I’m loyal too. Loyal to playing with each toy in our toy box.😉 Well sissy, let’s post some pics from last night then go get a nap in before the Cowboys game. 

Sissy: Have a great week everyone out there. 🐾 

Miss Cupcake

Bubsy: What a moment mom finally captured in a pic. Sissy laying on top of momma while she watches football. So many people around us miss out on this sweet side that sissy does have. Most think sissy is a sassy little girl that barely tolerates anyone.🤣 But no, in reality sissy can be as sweet as a cupcake…her nickname since the day she was born.🧁 So what gives sissy, how come you keep this side of your personality such a secret?

Sissy: I’m not sure exactly. I guess I’m just a very loyal little girl. There’s only room in my inner circle for momma and daddy. That’s it…sorry to everyone else.

Bubsy: Hey, what about me? You didn’t mention me in your inner circle. 

Sissy: Oh yeah, you are in my inner circle too. At least most of the time you are.😉

What The….

Bubsy: As you can see, it didn’t take sissy long to flip sides. No clue what happened to my cowboys. Perhaps overconfident? It’s going to be a long night in our house with sissy and mom gloating. 🙄🙈

So Scary

Bubsy: Welcome to fall y’all. It’s been feeling like fall since the start of this month but now it’s official. 

Sissy: It’s suddenly dark again in the early mornings for our long walk now too.

Bubsy: Mom has been looking around for reflective leashes to switch to so we are more visible while walking during the next few months.

Sissy: Let’s talk about this morning’s extras we saw on the walk. You seemed a bit scared this morning. 

Bubsy: There are more and more creepy scary things popping up in the yards in our neighborhood. The start of fall means people are busy decorating for Halloween. Which means I may have decided to walk WAY OUT AND AROUND some new Halloween decor that is in a neighbor’s yard. 

Sissy: I was right there with ya. Following you as you walked way around the spooky decor. So many of our neighbors have created either a zombie scene in their front yard or a graveyard scene complete with tombstones and skeleton bones. ☠️

Bubsy: Mom has been a little surprised at the amount of houses featuring scary scenes for Halloween. 😱 

Sissy: The yard with a gigantic clown from IT almost did me in. That house is beyond creepy looking right now. 

Bubsy: I agree. That house is creepy right now. All these scary Halloween decorations in so many front yards. But our yard seems to feature more of a basic fall pumpkin theme. 🎃 

Sissy: Nothing too scary about our front yard. 

Bubsy: You are the only thing scary in our yard and in our house. 🤣

Sissy: Oh brother! You try so hard to be funny. 🙄

Bubsy: It was a good joke. Since it’s Sunday, football is on in our house. It’s scary how bad some of these teams are. 

Sissy: It might get scary for mom to see her Cardinals play later today. 

Bubsy: Kind of looks like mom isn’t too into her team this year so far. I couldn’t help but notice she is wearing a very neutral shirt today. No Cards gear for her. 

Sissy: Well that’s smart. She’s in a household full of homegrown Texans. 😉

Bubsy: What a good point! Well sissy, we should end this session for today and go get in a good nap before the game. 

Sissy: How are we going to nap? The parents are making so much noise during this Saints game. 

Bubsy: It might not be easy to do, the parents are rather noisy. 😉 But anyway it’s time to go, hope everyone out there has a good week and once again…Happy Fall! 

So Sharky

Bubsy: The sun is shining after we had a week full of rain. Sissy’s footies have not left the patio in days. And she has developed a few new hopping moves to avoid any wet grass. 

Sissy: The worst part is my Uber was late and rarely showed all week long. I couldn’t believe it. I’m still shocked my Uber service was so poor. 😞 

Bubsy: It was one difficult week around here. Mom was struggling all week off and on. Then she woke up with an eye infection on Friday morning. 

Sissy: At this point mom needs caution cones around her. Please everyone approach with caution or I’ll bite you. Just kidding, I don’t bite but I bark. 

Bubsy: A lot! She barks A LOT! 

Sissy: I bark a necessary amount. 

Bubsy: Mom has been busy decorating for fall. Plus she got all our costumes and fall wardrobe down from the attic. 

Sissy: I’m not sure that’s a good thing. 🤔 

Bubsy: Don’t sweat it, sissy. This is a great time of year. The weather is cooler. The leaves are changing colors. And strange decorations are going up in our neighborhood.😉

Sissy: Strange is an understatement. One house in our neighborhood has cackling witches that make me jump three feet off the ground every time we walk by that house. 

Bubsy: The cackling witches don’t scare me much but the towering oversized skeletons make me want to run by the yard they are in. The oversized skeletons are literally two stories high. I…am…not…exaggerating!

Sissy: Nope, not an exaggeration.

Bubsy: Hey sissy, we should go get our cowboys jerseys on as it’s approaching game time. Mom and dad have been watching the chiefs and jaguars while we have been blogging. Mom is sipping the Lawrence “cool-aid” big time. 

Sissy: I think she just likes the turquoise uniforms. 

Bubsy: Nah, it’s Lawrence and Etienne that she likes to watch. Dad keeps getting in trouble for switching the channel to a different football game. 🤣

Sissy: Dad might lose control of the tv remote soon. Mom might steal it. 

Bubsy: Time to sign off for today. Everyone have a good week. In the pic below is there something “swimming” up behind me or just sissy hiding her head after that EMBARRASSING ASU loss last night?🦈 🙈 

Side Note: I must say, sissy makes a great shark, she’s very bitey with her attitude. But shh, don’t tell her I said that. 🤫 

Game Day

Bubsy: Are you here, sissy? Did you survive everything Mother Nature threw at us this past week?

Sissy: My oh my, not an easy week for us Texans. 

Bubsy: First we endured a majorly hot heatwave. Then on Friday in a very loud booming way autumn arrived, during a late night thunder and lightning storm. ⛈️ 

Sissy: From one extreme to another. But overall, I’m happy to see fall has arrived here. I pity the rest of you that are still suffering thru summer temps.🥵

Bubsy: Mom decided to let your hair grow out all summer long, sissy. So I must say, I’m a wee bit surprised you survived some of the heatwaves we had this summer. 😉

Sissy: It wasn’t that bad. It’s been growing all summer long so I’m ready for fall and winter temps. However, mom gave you a very short “summer” haircut and fall is beginning. You might be in trouble. I see shivering in your future.🥶

Bubsy: I’ll be alright. It’s absolutely perfect weather right now. Not hot and not cold, just perfect. It’s not going to get that cold that fast. Relax sissy! What else is going on around here?

Sissy: We were dressed in these jerseys for some reason today.  

Bubsy: That’s because for dad and also for mom too, it’s a very big and exciting Sunday. The first NFL Sunday of the new season is today. 

Sissy: To be real honest…mom watches more football than dad. 😉 Because she even watches college football. 

Bubsy: Mom worked hard yesterday to get everything done she needed to get done so she could watch as much football as possible today. So maybe we should end this and go watch some football with our parents. Cowboys play tonight! 

Sissy: Primetime! Good luck to everyone’s team out there. Except if your team is the Giants. Oh or the Eagles. I don’t like the Eagles. I tend to lose my mind when I see their logo.

Bubsy: It’s true! She loses her mind and barks at the Eagles when they are shown on tv. She’s crazy! 😵‍💫 Enjoy some football everyone. As you can see from the pic below, we are ready for game time. Sissy is in the limited edition military cowboys jersey, which I kindly let her borrow. And I got my football so clearly I’m ready. Put me in coach! 😉

Donut Labor

Bubsy: Ah yes, for it is Labor Day. The third holiday of the year where here in Texas my little nose is greeted by the overwhelming smell of meat beginning to be smoked as we took our morning walk. 

Sissy: Actually big bro, I think there’s four holidays when the smell of meat being smoked fills the air on our morning walk. Easter would be in that mix too. 

Bubsy: Oh my, you are quite right, sissy. On Easter Sunday, Memorial Day, the 4th of July, and todayLabor day) lots of meat is getting smoked here in Texas. 🍖🥩

Sissy: And the sad part is we’ve never had a tiny bite of smoked meat. Or any other meat. My oh my! 😕

Bubsy: That is sad. But at least we get to smell something good all day long every time we walk outside. 

Sissy: Maybe mom and dad will go buy some smoked meat and then we can get an up-close and personal type of smell. 

Bubsy: Besides filling our noses with the wonderful aromas in our neighborhood on this day, our plan is to enjoy a little swim in the pool and then relax in the afternoon with mom as she has a matinee movie planned.🍿 

Sissy: Happy Labor Day to all! P.s. look close on the bandana to understand the “donut labor” title of this post.🍩 

Bubsy: Wish we got paid in donuts for posing.😉😋

So Crazy

Bubsy: Look at that pic. I’m patiently waiting for her to get it together. But no, sadly, I’m still waiting…

Sissy: Waiting for what? 

Bubsy: YOU! Waiting on you to get it together. When mom is at work she often takes a kiddo off to the side and tries to calm them down by talking to them one on one and asking them to…please get it together! So that is what I’m asking you, sissy dear. Please get it together for just one photo shoot once in awhile. 

Sissy: I did have it together for the photo shoot this morning.

Bubsy: I truly beg to differ. You stripped your clothes off twice. So mom decided to go with only a bandana for you instead of clothes. Every time mom put the bandana on you, you’d take that off too and shake it about. Meanwhile, I sat there wondering if Halloween was going to arrive before you got it together. 

Sissy: Well Halloween has yet to arrive. 

Bubsy: And you still have yet to get it together today. Let’s tell the good people out there that read our blog what else you did today. 

Sissy: I’ve been an angel today.😇 

Bubsy: 🙄…There we were walking along on our early morning walk when mom stopped us to chat with a neighbor. The neighbor was using his garden hose to water his lawn. 

Sissy: Wait, let me just say, he had no business watering, it was fixin’ to rain. I heard thunder in the distance. 

Bubsy: Anyway, we’re stopped as mom chats away with the neighbor that’s holding his garden hose, all of a sudden he gets distracted by where the water is going and sissy got splashed. I laughed. She did not. 

Sissy: I certainly did not laugh! 😠

Bubsy: Instead sissy starts barking at the neighbor. Giving him a piece of her tiny little mind. I tell ya, she is so embarrassing at times.😳 Mom had to apologize and quickly move us along since sissy was in the process of losing her ever loving mind….again! 🙈

Sissy: He needed to be told off! I mean, really, pay attention dude and don’t get my precious hair wet. I was just barking at him, I wasn’t doing it in an angry way. 

Bubsy: I’ll give you that, sissy. You maybe weren’t sounding vicious but you instead were just sounding crazy. 

Sissy: One thing I am not is crazy! 😵‍💫😉

Bubsy: Oh geez! And on that statement we can end this for today. But mom is off tomorrow so please tune in for a special holiday post. Perhaps sissy will get it together by tomorrow. 😬

Sunday Snuggles

Bubsy: What a week!…what a week it was. 

Sissy: Lots of things were a mess this week. 

Bubsy: Our momma was sick all week. She came home from school on Monday, feeling the “creeping crud” coming on. By Wednesday she lost her voice. She had meet the teacher night on Thursday with no voice still. 🙊 By complete determination she made it thru the work week. 

Sissy: Then on Saturday she woke up before the crack of dawn to bake a cake for a family party. 

Bubsy: And today she’s been busy catching up on things she didn’t do yesterday plus getting ready for the work week. 

Sissy: Oh but the very early Sunday morning snuggle session with mom has been the highlight of the weekend. 

Bubsy: I couldn’t agree more. It was about 3:05 in the early morning when I woke up to the sound of mom’s barely there voice in my furry ear telling me to follow her. I noticed as she spoke in my ear she was grabbing your furry little self out of your bed. 

Sissy: She carried me and you followed closely from the bedroom out to the couch and she made herself a bed on the couch and we snuggled up next to her when she laid down. It was the best! 

Bubsy: I was snuggled between her arms as she hugged me tight. Sissy was up by her head and snuggled into her neck. It was quite the snuggly snuggle session. I love those early Sunday morning snuggle sessions with mom.

Sissy: Me too! I live for those snuggle sessions. 🤗 

Bubsy: Sissy’s deepest darkest secret…she’s a cuddler. But only with mom!!!!! Nobody that knows sissy would ever guess her to be like that. As a matter of fact just yesterday at the family bday party one topic of conversation was sissy’s dislike for people in general. 😆 

Sissy: I love mom and dad. And I tolerate all other humans. 

Bubsy: And many of them you barely tolerate! 😆

Sissy: Oh geez, I’m not going to deny that. Most humans I’m skeptical of. 🤨

Bubsy: You are just super loyal and protective of your inner circle. 

Sissy: That’s me in a nut shell. 🥜 

Bubsy: Time to end this blog session. As you can tell from the pic below, the Sunday morning snuggles continued this morning as we snuggled together while mom got ready for church. Have a good week everyone…the countdown to Labor Day weekend is about to begin, as is the U. S. Open…it starts tomorrow.🎾 

So Bright

Bubsy: Lets see what is going on in our neck of the woods this week…It was mom’s first week of the new school year. She did lots of art projects and came home with paint on her clothes at least twice this week. 

Sissy: She comes home with a lot more than paint on her clothes almost everyday. Paint is really the least disgusting thing to get on her clothes during a day. 

Bubsy: You are so right about that. So what else is going on?…mom is still the breadwinner and dad gets up late. Rarely gets up in time to see mom go off to work. But the other morning he was awakened by a beaming light. 

Sissy: He thought a spaceship had landed in our hallway. He had to get up to investigate how come it was so bright in the hallway. 

Bubsy: When he got up and came out of the bedroom he saw mom hopping down off the bathroom counter, as she had just finished putting new lightbulbs in the bathroom. She was super excited for these lightbulbs because she wanted the bathroom brighter. 

Sissy: As for dad, he instantly questioned her about buying such bright lightbulbs. He was not and is still not a fan of her new brighter lightbulbs. 

Bubsy: Dad has been begging for her to replace the new bulbs with dimmer ones. What do you think sissy, do you think mom will change the bulbs out again?

Sissy: Nope, not a chance. Mom uses that bathroom to get ready for work each day. If she wants it brighter than she should have it brighter like it is now. Dad might just have to borrow your sunglasses when he needs to use that bathroom. 

Bubsy: Yikes, I’m not sure I like that idea…all my sunglasses are very important to me. 😎 Maybe he can borrow yours instead? 😉😆

Sissy: He’d look amazing in my super bright neon green sunglasses. 

Bubsy: Oh yeah, I forgot to tell ya, I recently borrowed those. They look great on me! I’m a neon wearing type of guy. 

Sissy: Better you than me. Let’s end this and go play a game of chase. Bye to all out there. 💚

Back To School

We have all our supplies and we are ready for the new school year! To all students and teachers out there going back to school today…like our mom….have an amazing new school year! ✏️🚌📚✂️

Island Bubs

Sissy: Gee, so nice of you to arrive home in time for us to do our blog. 

Bubsy: You know I can’t miss a blogging session. As you can see from the pic, I boarded a plane with mom bound for Turks and Caicos on Friday. The Landon LANDed on an isLAND. How many times can I work in a “land” word?😆 During my island getaway I enjoyed many fruity drinks with umbrellas in them. Just kidding! I haven’t been anywhere.😜 But these cool items in my pic were brought home by mom after her teacher in-service which was isLAND themed. 🏝️

Sissy: That’s not all mom brought home on Friday. She brought home snacks upon snacks and two complete boxed lunches. And did we get any? Nope! 😞 I hope everyone that reads this feels sorry for us. 

Bubsy: I’m sure they will, sissy. It’s ruff being a dog and only getting dog food to eat. Although I nearly stole a green bean last night, but then I got scared I’d get in trouble so I didn’t bother. 

Sissy: You are such a goody-goody.🙄

Bubsy: What else has been going on in our world? Hey, let’s talk about your absolute favorite place to lay. What  is it?

Sissy: My favorite place to lay is on top of mom’s clothes. This morning mom came out of the shower to find me wedged between the toilet and trash can on top of her clothes. There’s no place more cozy than a little bed I’ve fluffed up of mom's clothes. And I don’t care how tight the spot is, I’ll figure out how to get in a small spot. 

Bubsy: Well you are quite tiny. All that hair at least helps make you look like you are more than an oversized rat. 

Sissy: A rat! Bite your tongue. I do not look like a rat! 

Bubsy: 😆…well friends out there, we need to end this for today so we can go chill on this Sunday afternoon with our parents. Have a beautiful day! 

Sissy: And please stop by the blog tomorrow too for a special picture post. Until then, have a good day!🤗 

The Runaway

Bubsy: I just have to say it…humans are funny. The humans and their strange antics provide us with lots of comedic moments.

Sissy: It’s because they are so crazy. However at times,  their antics are disturbing. Like this morning when mom broke a glass picture frame.

Bubsy: That picture frame started…only started to bobble and sissy was halfway to Oklahoma before it fully smashed into a billion pieces on the floor. Mom tried hard to catch it but no such luck.  

Sissy: I don’t take any chances. Something is falling and mom’s doing acrobatics to catch the item that’s falling I’m not sticking around to laugh about things. I’m outta there! 

Bubsy: But you have to agree mom’s antics on Friday night were rather funny.😆

Sissy: Oh yes, I almost cried I was laughing so much.😂

Bubsy: Mom arrived home from work and the grocery store on Friday evening. She opened up the back cargo area and out of nowhere a watermelon came tumbling out of the car. Our driveway is sloped so there was mom chasing after it. Every time she caught up to it, it seemed to speed up. This watermelon had a mind of its own.😉😆 Dad came outside to help but he wasn’t much help because he was too busy laughing at mom chase the watermelon which had reached the street and was rolling down the street by the time he arrived on the scene. Meanwhile, sissy and I enjoyed our birds eye view from the front window. Mom finally caught the runaway watermelon and both mom and dad had quite the laugh about things. 🍉 

Sissy: I don’t think mom planned on arriving home and playing an instant game of chase.

Bubsy: Nope! In general most games of chase should be reserved for me! But it was nice to see this entertainment at the start of our Friday evening. Hope you have all had a fun weekend. We have adjusted somewhat to our mom’s new work schedule. But best of all for this second week with her schedule…it’s a short week. She has a short reprieve between summer school ending and the new school year beginning. Woohoo! Long weekend coming for us. 

Sissy: I can hardly wait! Have a fun weekend everybody.🤗

Side Note: As you can see below, one of us has this modeling and posing for a pic down to an art…and one of us does not! Oh sissy! 🙈😆…she was trying to take off her hair bow before mom could take a picture…she nearly succeeded. 😆

Big Mess

Bubsy: Never a dull moment around here. Lots going on. Mom was making food yesterday morning when the garbage disposal and the pipe connecting the disposal decided to break and all of its contents plus a whole lotta water went pouring out the bottom of it and flowing out of the cabinet. 

Sissy: Biggest mess I’ve ever seen in my whole life.

Bubsy: Biggest mess I’ve ever seen too. It was like a river of ground up food pouring out of the cabinet. Such a big mess that mom went to wake dad up from his nap so he could help her clean. I want everyone to know I stayed right by momma’s side and assisted in the clean up too. Sissy, how did you help?

Sissy: I stayed far away. 

Bubsy: Do you feel bad for not helping? 

Sissy: Nope! If there’s a mess anywhere around, I’m out of sight. I’m way too sophisticated to help. 

Bubsy:🙄 Mom is now enjoying washing dishes in the bathroom sink since the broken pipe won’t allow her to use the dishwasher. Oh and mom’s other little trouble yesterday…she broke her exercise band while working out early yesterday morning. 

Sissy: Now that was funny. Like a comedy routine in the living room. First the exercise band tore in two. Mom tossed one piece to the side then kept on going. About 30 seconds later the band ripped again. She tossed another piece to the side and kept on going with a mighty short resistance band. 😆 

Bubsy: I have to agree it was quite funny. Mom, however, kept on going. She doesn’t let anything interrupt her morning workout not even an equipment malfunction. What else is going on, Sissy?

Sissy: Mom said something about a schedule change for her at school. She started feeding us at a slightly different time today to help us adjust. 

Bubsy: I got a feeling more adjusting is coming our way with this so-called “schedule change”. Prepare yourself, sissy, for a weird week. Well, let’s wrap this up. Sundays are about adventures and as you can see in the pic below, we are going fishing. Got my brand new tackle box and we are off. Let’s go, sissy! Bye friends, see ya soon. 🐾 

What stinks?

Bubsy: What stinks, sissy? Is it you?

Sissy: Um, of course it’s not me. I smell baby powder fresh all the time. And I’m not exaggerating…literally all the time. Mom sprays that baby powder cologne on me every chance she gets. Maybe you are the one that smells?

Bubsy: Thankfully, it’s not me that smells and thankfully mom resists the temptation to spray that baby powder cologne on me. I’m a boy, I need a more manly scent.

Sissy: You always smell like a cookie. 🍪 

Bubsy: Yep, cookie smelling cologne leftover from our pug brothers. Thanks, puggie bros! But in all seriousness mom started questioning a weird smell in her car a few days ago. Yesterday, when she put us in the car, it was quite awful of a smell. Mom started to back out of the garage with both of us safely in our car seats, then she decided to stop while still in the driveway to check out the nasty smell. She had picked up groceries two days prior and decided to see if a grocery item accidentally got left in the car. Sure enough, as she looked behind sissy’s car seat there was some deli meat that never got taken inside when the parents took in the groceries two days prior. Goodness me, it smelled BAD! 

Sissy: Had to hold my paws over my nose during that car ride. 

Bubsy: I would like to note that the awful smell of spoiling deli meat was found behind your car seat…so technically you were the smelly one. 😉😆

Sissy: Not funny! It wasn’t me that smelled it was just the meat that unfortunately slipped out of the grocery bag and behind my car seat. 

Bubsy: So mom complained for two days about this smell before it was discovered. Now dad has done nothing but complain about how her car still smells. 🙄🙈 Oh geez! 

Sissy: Knowing mom she will have the car smelling much better next time we go for a ride in it. I think she went out and bought some small spaces room fragrances.

Bubsy: Yep, and next dad will be complaining about that too. He hates those room fragrances.👃 Oh well, anything is better than the smell of spoiling deli meat….Time to wrap this up…Wishing everyone a beautiful new week! In the pic below, one of us is a little “stinker” and one of us always “bee-haves”! 🦨 🐝 You can guess which one of us is the true little stinker, things might not be as they appear in the pic.😆 Perhaps the toys should be reversed!😉

The Unexpected

Bubsy: It was a big movie night in our house last night. Which means what sissy?

Sissy: We get a better treat then usual. 

Bubsy: Well yeah, I guess that happened too. But I was more into the snuggle time. Movie night in my world means snuggle time with momma. 

Sissy: You are right. The snuggle was real last night. I snuggled with mom and a little with dad too. I like to position myself between the parents. 😉 Make room for me! 

Bubsy: I prefer to solely be on mom’s lap. I’m a momma’s boy! 

Sissy: And mom seems to spoil you extra. 🙄

Bubsy: Oh sissy, that’s not true. You get spoiled just as much. Hey, did you like that unexpected rain storm this morning?

Sissy: That came out of nowhere. We were too far from home to go back early. So we were stuck dealing with the rain. Worst part was that unexpected rainstorm caused us to get unexpected baths. 

Bubsy: At least we smell fresh and clean now. And we are ready to start the new week. Always a big job getting these parents of ours thru the week. They need us daily to get them motivated. 🤗

Sissy: First things first….let’s go have a Sunday evening with mom and dad. Bye for now people out there. 🐶
