Flat Squirrel

One of my many Christmas presents was a flat un-stuffed squirrel. I love this squirrel. Grandma got it for me. It is about a foot and a half long and it had a squeaker in its head and tail before I surgically removed them. Here are some pictures of Grandma laying on the couch and me playing with my squirrel with her...

Here we are on the couch.

There is my squirrel. Doesn't grandma look like she is having a great time! I thought so!

Christmas...Interesting

Christmas was very interesting. First off there was a tree in grandma's house. It was not a normal tree it was very shiny and sparkly and when ever I went over to it to take a closer look mom or grandma would say, "NO BAILEY!" So I would leave it alone. I did find one of the shiny balls on the floor and boy were they quick to take it away from me. Like I said before Uncle Dave and Aunt Rebecca were suppose to come but they got sick, so it was just grandma, mom, and me. Grandma said she couldn't get the presents under the tree (why would you put presents under a tree?), so they decided to put them on top of my big kennel. This was very interesting. Then when we got up Christmas morning Santa had locked our stockings in my kennel. Check it out...

I am not sure I understand it but boy I like it!

More of that Furry Red Guy

Over Christmas mom got more of those furry red things. She got a Hokie-Pokie Elmo from her friend Donna, grandma found an Elmo in a Christmas stocking that sings Jingle-Bells, and Uncle Dan and Aunt JuJu got her a metal tray wtih Elmo on it. I like the tray the best. Below are some videos of the other new ones mom got. Boy that red thing is scary!

Disappointment

It has almost been a week since Christmas and I have many new experiences to write about. First, I need to tell you about Thanksgiving. It was very interesting since mom and I drove to grandma's and I was super-duper excited to see her again. Then on Thursday Uncle Dave and Aunt Rebecca came and they brought my 3 cousins, Callie, Latte, and Al. They are very different from me and I really wanted to play with them but they just hissed and swatted at me. Mom says that cats don't play like puppies but I tried anyway. Mom got sick over Thanksgiving so grandma took care of me while mom slept a lot. Fast forward a month later and again mom and I went to grandma's. This time it was very weird there was a tree in the living room and there were shiny balls and sparkly things all over it. I tried to smell it but these green pointy things on it pricked my nose, so I basically left it alone. One Tuesday Uncle Dave called and said that he very very sick and that Aunt Rebecca, Callie, Latte, and Al and himself were not going to come for Christmas. :O( So it was just grandma, mom and I Christmas morning. There is lots to tell you about Christmas day and pictures to share and I will do that later. But I want to get to this title of this blog...Disappointment...Santa was very good to me...he brought me lots of toys and treat but I was disappointed that I haven't seen snow yet. So for those of you who voted in my poll of what did you think I was going to get for Christmas you were all wrong. Only toys and treats for me. I will blog again soon and tell you how my first Christmas was with pictures...boy that Santa is an amazing dude!

CHRISTMAS????

Mom says that I need to write a letter to Santa for Christmas.
So first...what's Christmas? AND why do I need to write a letter? AND what's a letter?

Mom says that Christmas is a holiday (what's that) where we exchange presents (I know what those are!). We also celebrate the birthday of some guy...but I don't get that either.

Mom says that grandma, Uncle David, Aunt Rebecca, Uncle Dan, and Aunt JuJu will use my letter to get things that I want or need. Mom also says she will forward my letter to Santa (who is he again?).

So here it is...

Dear Santa,
My name is Bailey and I have never written a letter before so I hope I do this okay. My mom says I need to tell you what a good puppy I have been this year. So I have been very good with the exception of pooping and peeing in the house, running away from grandma after a bath, bothering mom while she types on the computer, wanting to play with everyone who comes to our house, getting on the end tables and coffee table, and I am sure there are others but over all I have been very good. Mom even says that I am a very good girl when I go potty outside!
There are lots of things on my list, Santa. Mom says don't get me plush toys that I destroy them BUT boy I love them. I need new Nylabones like the Double Action Dental Chews or the "Wolf" for powerful chewers. I also need a new Kong. My puppy Kong is going to be thrown away soon according to mom. I really want a Redskin Pet Jersey a small one should do. That way mom and I can watch the games and support the Redskins. Any toy that is Vinyl or Latex is good. I love tug-of-war ropes. Mom says to ask for snow but I don't know what snow is...so bring some snow for mom please.
I am not sure who you are Santa but mom says that if I believe in you and if I am a good puppy that you will bring me toys and treats...so bring it on Santa!
Love, Bailey

So how do you think I did? We will have to wait and see mom says. I let you know how it comes out. Wish me well!

That Red Furry Thing

In mom's computer room there are a lot of these red furry things. The bed that grandma sleeps in when she comes to visit has them on it and there are 3 shelves with lots of them on it. While working on other blogs I found this video footage that mom took after I had my whoo-whoo surgery. I really don't like that red thingie at all!

You Make Me Want To SHOUT!!!!

Jingle WHAT???

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!

Mom took this picture during a tense moment during a Redskin football game. Every Sunday we sit on the couch and watch the Redskins play the game (Except when she goes to the game and leaves me at home because "NO DOGS AT FEDEX FIELD!!!". It's fun to watch the game there is whistles and yelling and according to mom the skins are doing pretty good this year considering. I just listen to her and watch the game on TV. Some day it will all make sense. I wish I had a redskin jersey like mom though...maybe that Santa guy will bring me one!
