It's hard to be the Little Guy!!!

Quick Update on me...

I've been so busy getting used to running around without that crazy cast I haven't had time to update for you guys. I got my cast removed and the vet was impressed with how my leg had healed so now I'm running around like never before. Mommy still keeps a close eye on me though, especially around my big ol' uncle Louie and my birth mom Cleo. Louie is like 15 pounds and Cleo is probably about 8 pounds and it's just lil ol' me at about 5 pounds. She doesn't want me to play rough with them. Little does she know, I do most of the instigating. I do miss the cast. It was fun to bat stuff around with it. I could knock some of my toys pretty far with it. And I could knock out my "competitors" (Louie & Cleo) when they tried to take my toys. One day Mommy caught me hitting Cleo over the head with my cast because she took my toy. I got it right back too! I still get my "Mommy and Me" time while the big dogs run free and Mommy and I hang out in the computer room, so I'm still enjoying that time. Thanks to everyone that asked about me. Mommy is taking very good care of me so I'm healing just great. I think tonight she is gonna take me to PETsMART for my first big adventure where there will be other dogs. I'm so excited! I think our friend Carrie is gonna go with us too. And I might get to go visit my birth dad after that. He lives with my Mommy's sister. Well, I'm gonna get back to playing...thanks for reading...drop me a line sometime :) Oh, by the way, my goofy Mommy kept my cast after they cut it off of my leg. Isn't she such a nerd? LOL

Saturday was a tough day all around...

Well, Mommy accidentally stepped on my leg because I got under her feet...I'm so small that's one of the things I'm best at, being "underfoot"...I think she cried more than I did about the whole thing though. Eric held me and tried to calm her down and so did my aunt (on the phone). It took them about an hour to get her calm and then off to the vet we went. We got there 10 minutes before they opened...Mommy held me the whole way there and while we were there. As soon as we walked back to see the vet he said "I can tell you right now looking at it that it's broken in two places". So that made Mommy sad again. They gave me some laughing gas that made me feel like a drunk monkey and then I took a little nap. When I finally woke up, my Mommy was cuddling me and kissing me and getting her tears all over me. Now I have a cast and they gave me a treat because I was such a good boy. All day today me and Mommy have been cuddling and she has been giving me extra attention. I kinda like that...even if I do have to hobble around with this cast on. Louie and Cleo like to play rough so Mommy has been trying to keep them away from me so they don't hurt me. I go back to the vet in about 10 days for a check-up and then in 3 weeks I get the cast off. I think I'll milk this attention thing for all it's worth while I can :)
After the vet yesterday, we went to see a couple of Mommy's friends (Weasel and his wife and their kids). Then we went to the church because they were dedicating the Softball Field in Mommy's Papaw's memory. Mommy named me after her Papaw because he is such an awesome man and I'm gonna be an awesome lil doggy. There were lots of people I have never met before, some of Mommy's family and some people from the church or other places that her Papaw was well kn0wn at. I had a good time and Mommy never let me out of her site. She carried me around the whole day and loved on me...She feels bad about what happened but I keep giving her puppy kisses to try to remind her that I'm gonna be ok and it wasn't her fault. Her friends keep telling her that accidents happen and she shouldn't be so hard on herself. She's had a rough time lately so I hope she listens to them and I hope my puppy kisses help her.

My life so far in this crazy house...

I've been here for two weeks this Friday...I love my Momma...she takes good care of me and she didn't get too mad when I peed on her my second day here...4 times!!! I'm trying to work on that...She goes crazy when I walk over to the "wee wee pad" and make a tinkle. She tells me she wishes I would do that when I make a poo too...but she is being very patient with me. Louie is crazy! He tries to eat my food but Momma makes him leave it alone. And when I walk over to his food he gets all mad. I think he likes me though. We play alot (but only when Momma is watching us cuz he is so much bigger than me...) and I like learning from him. I'm looking forward to warm weather so we can all go play outside. I'm looking forward to when Justin (Momma's nephew) starts playing baseball again. Louie was telling me about getting to go to the games and playing with people and watching the game. Well, I've typed enough, time to go back to sleep...
