Mom's Mothering...

This is Nellie Belle here. I just wanted to say that here I am, a "big girl" and my mom STILL mothers  me. Take today for example, all I wanted to do was run out and greet my daddy when he got home from work. Oh no, Mom had to have her way before I could run out to see daddy. She  made me put my coat on before she would let me out the door. What  a bossy mommy...I love her anyway but gee whiz, I was only gonna be outside for a minute!

ps--Maybe Mommy is smarter than I give her credit for. I stayed warm!

Opi's a Model!

Mom needed a model for the hat she made our brother Matthew 'cause he was at work and couldn't do it. Opi had to be the one because it's a boy-hat and Opi's a boy sort of. Here he is:

Mommy Did Some Christmas Shopping

Our mommy went to the store today and she told us when she came home that she put in an "order" with Santa Claus for our presents. We hope it's not CLOTHES! We would rather have special treats and Nellie would like a toy. We can stay warm enough wrapped up in the throw on Daddy's recliner so we don't need clothes! Mom's lips are sealed so we just have to wait until Santa comes to find out for sure what she told him. We hate waiting....

Our Mommy Made Us Get a Shot!

We like going for rides in the car with our mom. Yesterday mom put our sweaters on us and loaded us up in the car. We were so happy until she pulled up in front of the vet's office. We both started shaking like crazy! We've been scratching a lot lately because our skin itches. We're allergic to something and we do NOT have fleas so that's not the problem. Every couple of months when the itching gets out of hand mom takes us for a shot and that's exactly what happened yesterday. Everyone said we were cute but no one even tried to save us! Mom did take us for a treat at the pet store afterwards because we were good "kids." We got star-shaped doggie cookies! They were pretty tasty so we forgave Mom for the shots. Here's a picture of us when she was loading us in the car to leave home:

It's Getting Chilly!

Nellie Belle and Opi try to see who can get the most of the Mexican throw to snuggle in the recliner with 'cause it's getting COLD in themornings and evenings especially! Here's the chihuahua kids snuggling:

This is in the morning and they're missing their daddy's body heat in the recliner because he's gone to work.

Getting Cold Outside...Mom "Hooked Us Up"

Mom was getting concerned because it's getting cold outside and she wants us to be warm. Earlier this week, she picked up her crochet hook and some yarn and made us sweaters. They're cute and warm. We didn't have the heart to remind Mom that Chihuahuas shake and that helps to warm us up! We also shake when we're frightened but that doesn't happen too often here 'cause our parents love us and protect us from all the evils in the world! Anyway, here's pictures of us in our new sweaters--Opi in gray and Nellie Belle in pink. Puppy kisses...

We Celebrated Dad's Birthday

Mom just posted a picture of us on her blog wishing Dad a happy birthday. We told her to put some more pictures on our blog too. We love our dad and mom lets us run out to greet him everyday when he gets home from work.  That's why Nellie B. is wearing a "welcome home" balloon while Opi is wearing the birthday one. Anyway, we'll stop yapping and post the pictures for you. Puppy dog kisses...

From Mom's E Mail

Mom thought she'd like to share these pictures she got in her email. We said "ok" 'cause they're kind of cute especially the one with a chihuahua.

The above picture is our favorite!

Blogger Not Cooperating with Comments

Nellie Belle's Baby Picture

The other day mom was going through some old pictures and she found a baby picture of Nellie B when she was 8 weeks old. We thought we'd share it with you. Mom said that Nellie looked like a little angel puppy. We all know that Nellie is a bit of a scamp though! Puppy dog kisses to all...

Bad Doggy...

Our mommy says that it's a good thing that we're not as bad as the dog in this video because we would have to be grounded from doggy cookies for an entire day!  Whew!  We'd never snap at our mommy though 'cause we love her.   Enjoy the video!

We're Ready to Go Bye-Bye

Here we are ready to go bye-bye.  We were all excited to go!  What we didn't realize at the time, our mommy was taking us to the vet.  We don't like go there.  We had our yearly check-up for worms, hand had our ears looked at, got weighed and even got SHOTS!  Mommy was nice to us afterwards and took us to the pet store for some treats 'cause we were good.  We really wish Mommy would find some place better than the vets to take us...Hugs and puppy dog kisses to all... Love, Opi and Nellie Belle

Our Nephew "Spike" Visits

Our mom is babysitting our nephew Spike this weekend.  Spike is our human brother's "little boy" but he is also known as a Cocker Spaniel.  Spike misses his daddy and has spent the weekend moping and napping on the couch.  Our mom has tried to play with him, give him goodies and dress him up in bandannas but nothing seems to work!  His daddy will pick him up today so then Spike should be happy.

Opi Enjoyed Memorial Day Weekend

Opi relaxed and enjoyed Memorial Day. His parents had a cookout in the backyard and Opi's one sore spot was that not enough food was dropped on the ground! He gets a kick out of racing over to the dropped goodies and gobbling them up before one of his human friends sees them and tosses in trash--lol! Anyway, here's the man of the hour:

Somethings Going Around...

Opi has been moping and napping more than usual the last couple days.  He says he just doesn't feel right.  His eyes are a little "glassy-looking" too.  He's a bit more alert today but still not his usual, sweet self.  Here he is kicking back in one of the furbaby beds.
