I'M BAAACK!

I'm going to continue blogging here because it's sooo much easier to update on a more regular basis when mommy lets me use her laptop. Hmm, let's see.. today I discovered some black stuff in the fireplace that I've never seen before. It tasted pretty yummy but mommy didn't seem to want to let me have it. She yelled at me pretty bad today and so I'm pretty sure those black stuff are bad stuff. Either way, I tried to be good but it just seemed like everything I thought I was doing good on, Mommy would come back in the room and yell at me some more. So I just got my bullywhip and chewed on it because mommy says I'm a good girl when I do that, so I try to be good for her.

I really miss daddy though. He promised he'd take me to the dog park tomorrow if I'm good and if it's nice out.

Mommy & Daddy also said tomorrow is this thing called "Thanksgiving." I don't really know what it is but I heard them talking about food and I'm sooo hungry! Mommy & Daddy haven't let me have wet food in sooo long. I hope I can have some tomorrow!! Mommy said I should start thinking of all the things I'm thankful for and make a big list. So here I go!
  1. Big orange leaves in the fall.
  2. When daddy cleans and massages my ears
  3. The tricks mommy teaches me
  4. The treats mommy gives me when I do her tricks
  5. My boodah buddy
  6. Bullywhips
  7. Purina Pro Plan wet food
  8. The colors brown, orange, yellow & red.
  9. Jack Johnson
  10. Frank Sinatra (he's amazing)
  11. Santa Clause... even though I hate him.
Speaking of which! I got in a big argument with him the other day! He told me I was a bad girl when I went to Mommy's work to take pictures. I showed him!

My first night alone :(

Mommy & daddy won't let me sleep with them at night so I have to sleep by myself in this big box thing. I mean, it's comfortable and everything. They got me this really comfy bed and my own 'Seahawks' blanket (I'm still trying to figure out what that is and what's the big deal about it), but I just want to cuddle up with mommy & daddy! They leave me all alone. But mommy put this box thing that plays the most soothing noise, it just makes me fall right to sleep. I really like that guy mommy calls 'Bob Marley.' He has the same name as me, but mine is spelt way cooler. Oh and those two guys, 'Jack Johnson' and 'Frank Sinatra?' Oh man, I'll be crying up a storm and as soon as I hear their voice I don't feel so lonely anymore!

Anyway, my uncle Patrick woke me up this morning. He was making so much noise! Then my mommy came to take me outside and go pee. Mommy gave me lots of kisses for peeing outside, so I think I might do that just to get some more. I made an accident once today though, but mommy and daddy weren't paying attention to me because I kept telling them I haaaaad to go pee real bad! So I just went to teach THEM a lesson.

Mommy & daddy also took me to the park and we had tons of fun running and I chased mommy and daddy everywhere. They even let me off my leash! Oh, and then daddy found a cool thing called a 'playground' and I got to go down the slide for the first time. It was kinda scary so I really didn't want to at first, but mommy was at the bottom to catch me and it was alright.

We went through the trails and I discovered what a 'creek' was. I didn't know water could make so much noise!

We went back inside and I was soooo tired, I knocked out right away. I think mommy & daddy did too.

I went to the 'vet' for the first time today. Mommy & daddy kept making a big deal about it, so I was a little scared, but we went in, and it wasn't so bad! I saw other dogs there too! Big ones that I've never ever seen before. I wanted to say hi but mommy wouldn't let me.

Next we went to this amazing store and I smelt a familiar scent and found a HUUGE bag of my favorite food! It was way bigger than the bag mommy & daddy have for me. I watched mommy & daddy get my 'i.d. tag' from this noisy thing called a machine. It was really loud. I didn't like it. And I don't like when mommy rolls down the window in the car. Those things that fly by the window are really loud too. ANYWAYS, I guess this i.d. tag says my name on it so in case I lose my mommy and daddy, it has my information so I can go back home to them. I hope that never happens though. I can't even stand when they leave me alone in the room for 5 minutes!

Then mommy took me to her work to meet these other humans called her 'co-workers.' They were okay. I was reaaal tired though, but mommy kept saying I was being a good girl so I guess I was being well behaved. I was hoping she would give me some more of those **treats from this man that gave mommy & daddy food through the car window. I don't really care too much for human food but mommy kept insisting. It was really good!

It was a tiring day so I went to sleep to Frank Sinatra again in the car. When we got home, mommy kept trying to wake me up but I was so grumpy and tired I didn't want to talk to her. And what was even worse, as soon as we got outside, it was really really cold, and those little humans were being really loud and touching and trying to hold me and it was just really uncomfortable. Finally mommy and daddy took me away from those little demon humans and brought me inside. Grandma and grandpa were home when we got there. I played with daddy for a while, but a puppy can only play so much! Mommy put me in my kennel and put on my sleep music and I fell back to sleep right away.

The day's not over yet though! I still have another 4-5 hours to create terror in this apartment. I'll post pictures tomorrow! Stay tuned :]

** Some participating McDonalds give your doggie a free doggie treat at the pay window if you ask for one. We fed Marlee only a little bit because she's still not use to eating big pieces of food.

My first blog

My day started out when I woke up this morning and some visitors were in our house. My brother and sisters were all excited because Bob & Viv said they were coming to take one of us home. The humans said they were looking for a boy but they kept saying "Wow he's a big boy" about my brother. And then I walked up to one of the humans and put on my oh-so-irresistible charm & won over the human's heart. And they thought they wanted a boy! Ha! Anyways, I had fun showing off my toys and showing how cute and cuddly and lovable I am and my new mom and dad filled out paperwork to take me home. The car ride from Granite Falls to my new home in Everett was far, but after squirming around a little bit in mommy's lap, I calmed down and took a nice little nap. Mom kept making these weird noises though so I'd look up at her all confused and then she'd stop and laugh. Then I'd get comfortable again and I'd hear her again! I don't get what that noise means but it sure is weird!

I'm getting comfortable in my new home though. I have no more brother and sisters to share and fight over toys with (my mommy and daddy had a billion already for me when we got home!). I thought I'd show the humans who's boss by peeing and pooping on the carpet unannounced. I played and caused a ruckus. Mom & dad had to chase me around for a bit. Then I got reaaal tired and took a nice 30 minute nap. Then when I woke up, I decided to pee on the welcome mat, but Grandma got real mad and made me sniff my own pee and then put me on this white pad thing in the corner of the room. Now I know which humans I can't get away with stuff with. Anyways, Mommy took me on a short walk today after my nap and I was just on the trail of so many funny smelling things. I met a bunch of other little humans that kept making lots of weird noises and touching me. I also met another beagle. It was a like a future me!

I've been playing all day and I'm about to take yet another nap. Napping is my favorite favorite thing to do just to let you know. I guess I will post pictures later when I feel like it.
