I love snow!

Okay, maybe I don't love snow. In fact, I hate it....unlucky for me, Trixie loves it. She's fully healed from her stitches and doesn't have to wear her cone anymore. Here's one of her first days back at the dog park...

Yep, she wanted to dig holes! And she was SO excited to see me on the other side of the bench....kissing the camera!

Our little girl is all grown up...

Trixie came home from the vet after getting fixed and proceeded to just lay there from exhaustion and pain. I've never seen her so calm though. She was SUCH a good girl, according to the vet. Now she can't have babies...yeah birth control! We are sad that she can't have little Trixie Jr.'s but I am not about to help her with those puppies. Her cone is something else. She now goes outside with it and shovels up snow in it like the photo shows. What a silly dog!

Which is it?

Sun bonnet? Or cone of shame? You be the judge....

(Trixie is now a woman!)

6 months old!

What a good girl. And how pretty, right? She's 6 months old now and is getting fixed today! Eek! Hope she doesn't mind her "cone of shame."

Rub and dub dub!

What does Trixie NOT like? I'll tell you.....it's BATH TIME! Look at that sad lookin' pout!

I love her little flame tail!

Like her mohawk? She didn't seem to notice. We had cotton balls in her ears to keep water out and prevent ear infections, hence Aaron's hand holding her ears down.
She's drenched and waiting for her towel! Poor little puppy. But she's so white and fluffy now. We'll let her sleep off the terror and stress before showing you her lovely white coat!

Cell Mates...

We visited our friends in Philly again with our little pup in tote. She and Cottonwood Rainbow Moon Shadow were getting along famously. SO FAMOUSLY.....that they went into Shadow's crate together....Bow chicka bow wow! (Trixie is getting fixed this Friday, so not much more of that sexy stuff anymore. YEAH!)

Some old photos

When we were in CA, we snapped some shots of Trixie with her cousin, Sudo. Unfortunately, the two of them played SO FAST that the photos are all a blur. Here is Sudo though....
And here's Trixie's aunt, April. April is 8 months old (SO much older than Trix)....Again, these guys loved to zoom past me....this is really the only shot where they are both in the frame. Look how Trixie's paws are all the ground!

And of course, Trixie got to go for a long car ride along the California coast. Look at that view!

Rocking Out!

Dear dad,

Thanks for letting me come into your office to play while you worked. I loved playing WITH your drum kit. Oh and the rug is super comfy! I love rock and roll!

Love, Trixie

PS sorry I chewed on your bass drum pedal, but you know mom will buy you another one....

I didn't do anything....

But your carpet is going to be drenched with snow....love you mommy!

Love, Trixie

Happy New Year!

Trixie made a New Year's Resolution: To be more obedient, to learn more tricks, and to not nip as much.
Oh and to drink less bubbly and more water. Yeah for Trixie....
From Trixie, Aaron, and myself, Happy New Year!
