Hmmm...

What are these weird things on the kitchen table?

My dad says that they are "steamed crabs" and that they are amazing, but I'm not so sure.

My dad let me lick one of the crab shells.

Yum. That was actually pretty good!

My dad said that the secret to great crabs is Old Bay seasoning.

High-Fives All Around!

First, I give an award back to Dennis for his great work defeating the ninja hedgehogs and to help him defeat Lord Tater.

Rocket gets an award for his great adventures, his super agility skilz, and for letting his new sister Delilah live in his house with his humans.

Maggie gets an award for taking care of her human baby sister. I can help teach her how to use the Golden Paw to protect her baby sister if she needs help. Maybe we'll meet up at Quiet Waters :)

My step-mom Gabby and her sister Flirt both get an award to help them do well in their agility competitions.

Finally, Amanda deserves an award for surviving Hurricane Ike and sharing pictures and stories from Texas.

Me? A Martial Arts Master?

Thank you to my good friend Dennis the Vizsla Dog! He shared the secrets of the Golden Paw with me so that I can defend myself against people and dogs who might make fun of my little pants. Dennis used the ancient and powerful martial art form of the Golden Paw to defeat the ninja hedgehogs and save the DogHouse of Justice, so I hope I can learn the Golden Paw quickly. It may be hard for a little girl like me to do the techniques as well as Dennis, but I will do my best! Once I learn how to do the Golden Paw, I promise to teach it to my friends who need it.

Womanhood is not all its cracked up to be

Hi all,

This is Laila's mom, Renee. Laila isn't feeling very well, so she told me to write a quick post for her. Laila started her first "woman time" last night. Luckily, Jeff and I had planned for this and had toddler boy underwear and pads ready to go. I had wanted to buy something girly like floral print or Dora the Explorer, but since we needed somewhere to put Laila's tail, we had to settle for Disney Pixar underwear. Poor Laila. Do they make puppy Midol?

This is Laila modeling her Disney Pixars Cars "fancy pants" a few weeks ago.
