Thanks to Lisa and Ellie for this award:


10 Things About Me:

1) My favorite activity is nursing. I will suck on toys and blankets, and will do it for hours. I usually fall asleep this way since it reminds me of my momma.


2) Mom says I am her easiest puppy yet. I have fantastic manners and learn very quickly. It also doesn't hurt that I am quite the confident little gal ;)


3) I walk really slow. Mom jokes that it takes twice as long doing an errand not because people talk to me or because I misbehave, but because I am a snail!


4) My mom loves me so much she got me my very own German Shepherd. I take very good care of Josette because I promised Mom I would if she got me one.


5) I am afraid of Frontline. That stuff stinks, so when the first rolls around, I hide!


6) I get the Lab Scoots at the drop of a hat! My favorite place to do them is in the backyard at Grandma and Grandpa's.


7) I've met both of my parents.



8) Mom is pretty much convinced I am a clone of Pandora, my momma. We look AND act exactly the same.


9) I'm a "mini Lab"-only 47 lbs at 11 months!


10) I love the beach! I'm really hoping my forever home has beach access-wouldn't that be awesome?!?!


I pass this on to whoever wants to join in!

I guess I'm a city girl!

Another adventure we had over break was a trip to New York City. Mom told me all about it ahead of time, but I don't know why she built it up so much. I took the whole thing in stride and didn't bat an eye at any of the interesting sites or sounds. We took the train down, then hit Times Square, followed by Rockefeller Center, a quick bite to eat (for the humans), and then back on the train to head home. North and his mom came along as tour guides, so it was nice to have some canine companionship. Apparently we were more popular than NYC itself, since we were photographed on numerous occasions. One guy even took a picture with me-I must be super cute!

Vacation

Mom and I had a 2 week break from classes, one of which was spent at the beach! I have never been to the beach before but I sure hope I get to go back! I had the best time running into the waves and swimming a little, when the water got high enough. Quite possibly the best part was digging in the sand. I LOVE to dig but Mom never lets me do it at home. At the beach, however, I could dig until I was exhausted and I did just that! I got a little bit of work in, but this was mostly all play.

School

I have finally started going to school with Mom. I wonder what took her so long to bring me, this place is awesome! There are always things going on and lots of people who fawn all over me. Not to mention when we go into the classroom and the teacher turns off all the lights-naptime is awesome! I don't know why Mom complains about it all the time...

I'll have to bug Mom to take the camera for our last day tomorrow. Hopefully I can go with her when her other classes start, though.

Dinner with Yara

To celebrate the end of Mom's classes, Yara and I decided to take our moms to dinner. We went to a book store first and then walked to the restaurant. Us girls were really well behaved and mostly slept the entire meal. Afterward we took a walk around the plaza and took some pictures.

Happy Father's Day!

To my wonderful dad, Eli!

Same Old Things

These past four weeks can be summed up in one word-BORING!!! Mom had to take a bunch of classes so I stayed home with the roomie all day. She's cool but I missed my mom a lot so I wasn't always on my best behavior. Mom tried to take me out when she could, but it was never anywhere exciting. I'll just list where we went, since there are no stories to go with them:

Best Buy
restaurants
farmers market
mall
puppy class
watching Irie's agility class
3 day swap
Valvoline
grocery store
Georgina's
parks

That seems like a lot of places now, but they were all pretty boring. I did get to go to Grandma and Grandpa's almost every weekend so I got to play and go out there.





A bunch of my pictures made it onto the GEB website. This one even made the home page!


I think I've been on there about 5 times now-I may start calling myself a Cover Girl :)

One day I had my GEB Walk and Talk. I was definitely not on my best behavior that day, but GEB seems to think I am becoming a teenager. Whatever! I just do what I want when I want-does that sound like a teenager to you? Needless to say Mom has been stepping things up now that 2 of her classes ended.

So that pretty much sums up my month, hopefully there will be more exciting adventures to come!
