Halloween 2009

we had a great time trick or treating. Mom and dad tossed treats into the leaves and we picked them out. What a great day.

BIG NEWS

Mom came home and told Chilly and I that in mid-November we're getting a younger brother. Yeah, a spirited small playmate for me!!!! Another big guy to keep an eye on our little sis! This is huge, this is exciting. Santa is bringing us an early gift.

Yeah Karen for saving this guy and finding him a great home with me! Chilly! the pack and most especially my mom

Acting like a dog

I didn't realize it had been so long since I posted any news. Time certainly goes by when you are having a good time. I can't tell you how great life is here in North Carolina.

As it turns out, I did not make the road trip to Knoxville. Mom saw that it was only 38 degrees and felt I wouldn't be happy. She was right. She came home and said there was snow in the mountains. I would not have enjoyed that much. I've been out here in 55 degrees and mom and dad both discovered I shiver, quickly. We fixed that, I wear a robe when I go outside when it's that cold.

I've learned the pleasure, stress relief and general joy of chewing a bone. I would watch Deuce with his bone for hours and it caught on that maybe this is what makes a happy dog. Deuce is good about sharing, so we switch back and forth. If you see pictures, mine is the pink one, but I am often found with a white one in my mouth.

Oh, Deuce just farted, Oh Stink!!!! Plug you nose, a wild Frenchie is on the loose. Have to go find some fresh air.

Beanie Update

Yup, Mom thinks of me as a beanie baby now....go figure. I'm like a wet noodle if I don't want to do something so I guess that's fitting. But really it's short for Chilly Bean.
Anyway, I'm here to report that having a bigger, younger brother has been good for my spirit, body and mind. He has taught me so many new tricks. I can jump from the ottoman to the chair now, I jump up on mom's legs when she comes home from work, and I've learned to follow him around in the yard to some serious exploring. This is quite intriguing! Siblings aren't half bad.
Life in North Carolina is grand. I love the weather this time of year. Mom's looking for a rain coat though, because I HATE to go in the rain.
I'm getting used to sharing the bed with a cat that is about my size. Minx, have I mentioned her. It took a month before I let her come into the livingroom but she's used to me now and her scent has grown on me so I don't jump on her as soon as she crosses the threshold anymore.
Who knew life with a cat could be entertaining...????
That is all for now. Talk to you again soon, Chilly=bean

We made our first trip to the beach today. And are we spoiled or what??? Mom and dad took us to Petsmart first. Deuce picked out a Halloween toy that he couldn't live without.

The beach was awesome.

Check back soon as our adventures continue.
