Ese's 5th Birthday Party

Hi everyone,

These are the pictures from Eses's 5th Birthday Party. They are only going to be up for the month of July, so enjoy!

1. Ese and I are posing for the camera. I know, he's the birthday boy, the guest of honor but notice how the light highlights my beauty. I am quite the natural model.

2. This is my mommy's mommy. We call her Mommy #2. (Sometimes dad calls her granny, then he gets put in the doghouse!) I love her so much, I am smiling. I don't get to see her much because she lives in Indiana, she came especially to see me at Ese's birthday party.

3. This is Ripley, she sniffed my butt. I let her know what I though about that!

4. This is Julie nd Mischka (bro & sis) saying hi to Dixie (the JRT). Dixie wasn't sure what to think at first but later realized they are really nice.

5. Taffy watching the action at "Lake Chihuahua"!

6. Mom and me and a Red Stripe (Jamacia's Finest) Beer...a perfect combination!

7. Here I am with one of my human friends. She is so very gentle with me, I really like her!

8. These are a couple more of our human friends horsing around at Lake Chihuahua, I hope they don't squirt me!

9. Here I am guarding my friend from Oreo, my foster brother. I love him but I don't love sharing!

10. Here is my daddy. He is getting ready to cook lunch for all the humans. Why couldn't he drop just one delicious brat? I guess I will have to settle for licking fingers!

Spring has Sprung

I love spring...there are so many new things to bark at and about. Mommy takes us outside every day to help with "sprucing up" the gardens though I don't know why she calls it that she hasn't planted one pine tree! Silly Mommy once again.

Anyway, it's super-fun. At first it is a little chilly so I have to lay in the sun to warm up. After an hour or so of sun dogging, the schoolbus comes...we say "bye" to all the kiddies. Then it's time for more sun dogging. Usually after the mailwoman comes we go inside and get a bite for lunch. After lunch, we are warm enough to go and help Mommy from the shade. We help by letting her know when anyone comes into the hood. We have different barks for friends, strangers, cars and bikers. Brother "chases" special friends that drive by the side and behind the house. He can't see them through the fence but he knows that they appreciate his support. In the afternoon the schoolbus come by lots to let different sized kids off. After the bus comes by for the forth time, we have about a half hour before Daddy comes home and that means a Daddy-Come-home-TREAT! It's one of our favorite times of the whole day. Anyway just wanted to let ya'll know that spring has sprung here but; hopefully, you are too busy enjoying yourselves outside to even be reading this. If you are reading this and it is beautiful outside...GET OUT THERE!

Chi Party and a new foster brother!

2 April 2005


Wow today was a really big day. We had a party with our new chihuahua MeetUp friends. If you live near the Capital District of NY, you can learn about our local MeetUp group here: www.chihuahua.meetup.com/75 We are a (right now) small group of chi owners that want an opportunity for our chis to be able to socialize with other chis. It was lots of fun.



Also, Mom and Dad brought home a new fosterdog, Stoli. This is the fourth doggie friend that we are helping find a forever home. Stoli is a miniature American Eskimo Dog. He is about three times our size so mom is making sure that everyone is playing nice. He is very fluffy, kind of like a new toy. He likes to bark, which is cool. Stoli stays outside FOREVER, he doesn't seem to get cold. And he loves to go on walks.

Viva Las Vegas...Baby!

Let me tell you, first class is THE ONLY way to fly. They bring bowls of water and biscuits around before the plane even leaves the ground! And brother and I got to sit on Mommy's lap instead of in the carrier by her feet. Everyone was very nice to us and we were very good despite being grounded for almost three hours on the runway at home. Once we touched down in Vegas, brother and I had to find a hydrant, pronto! We met up with Nonna (dad's mom), Big Dog (dad's dad) and their two yorkies...Cody and Bella. They all live in Las Vegas. We were meeting Bella for the first time but she is not a puppy. She is a two year old yorkie that our grandparents adopted into the family.



We had a great time in Vegas with our extended pack. We visited many bike paths where we could run, walk and sniff as much as we wanted. We met a new friend, Jack. He's a terrier too but not a yorkie. He sure is funny. He likes to play with the sprinklers. It was sure great being someplace warmer for a little while.



For Easter, we went to visit with even more family in CA. We met lots of new people and went for a walk on a mountain and hunted avocados. Avocado hunting was fun but I don't think Mommy and Daddy are going to share. There were also lots of lizards everywhere. We didn't know what they were because we had never seen geckos before then Mommy explained that the thing on tv that sells geiko insurance was a gecko. They sure sound different than on tv. On Sunday night we loaded up the car and headed back to Vegas.



We had a couple of more days playing in the sun and then we flew back to NY...in coach.

BTW, the next time you are in Vegas I recommend HYPNOLARIOUS with Deogee the hypnotizing Min Pin. We give it two paws up!

Happy ValenHearts day!

Hi everybody! Did you have as great of a Valentine's Day as I did? I got spoiled by everybody. I got a new toy....it is a lime green elephant with soft pink accents, a new bag to ride in... it is for brother and me to share, we may take it on our upcoming trip to Las Vegas, and I got a pupcake with Carob icing! It is so fun to eat pupcakes. First I slowly lick off the Carob icing. It is sooooo good and I try to make it last for at least 10 minutes. Then, I lick the icing off the bed, because the bed always tres to steal some icing. Then I crunch on the deliciuos bananna nut pupcake. I don't want to eat anything for hours because I don't want that wonderful taste to leave my mouth.

I also had a modeling assignment last night. You can see some of the shots at: stores.ebay.com/lola-belle-Canine-Couture After a ruff 20 minutes or so of modeling I sat on Mommies lap while she looked at all the pictures and "cleaned them up." Don't ask me how they got dirty...I had nothing to do with it. If anyone says otherwise, I will say I was "framed!"


Later brother and I played and played with our new toys! Mommy and Daddy helped play too. It was super-Fun!

Road Trip!

This weekend we (Mommy, Daddy, and brother Ese) went to visit our great-grandparents. It is about a 4 hour drive to a place called New Jersey. Road trips are way funner than air trips because I get to sit on Mommy's lap the whole time if I want. Whenever we have to pay something called a "troll" Mommy feeds me and my brother treats so we don't bark at the human troll-'collector.


The humans there were very excited about the Eagles...that is all anyone would talk about. I was really nervous because eagles scare me. I think they think I am a snack so I really kept my eyes peeked this weekend. I didn't see any.

I got to give a fashion show for my Na-Na and my Pop-Pop. I also got to jump in my bag and show them how fun it is to hang out in my bag. They thought that was pretty funny...I don't know why. Anyone who is anyone loves to ride in bags. Mommy only brought one. It is so much funner to jump from bag to bag. They would probably think that was really funny.

One of the best parts was when Daddy took me for a walk at night. The bunnies there haven't all been chased off by my big brother. I got to chase my very own bunny. I didn't get to see if it's squeaker worked because Daddy was tooo slow.

Mommy says now that were are back from our "tropical vacation", I have a busy week of modeling ahead. What fun!
