Taking a short break from party prep to say hellllllooooooo ;) I have officially gone mad -
If you are getting ready for the party, I hope your Halloween party prep is going wonderfully. I am behind in everything under the sun, except shipping out orders (I take that very seriously, tape and all).
For today, I want to tell you a little story. It has to do with my new furry baby. You see, when we brought him home Mister Lovee was very worried because Matty was, in a way, reactionless. He didn't cry, he didn't bark, he didn't act scared. He was just still and quiet.
I went on line, reading all sorts of puppy advice.
Most people wrote tips about how puppies take a while to creep out of their shells, and that they are mostly confused and scared.
So, I went with that.
2 days after having Matty he was running around playing, taunting Baby and having a ball.
The other day, I was about to catch a cold (I have not had one for 3 years, and averted this one too, yay!) and was attempting to take everything out of my gallery (boxes stacked to the ceiling) to use the space for my party prep.
While I was sneezing and working like a mad woman, I heard a loud splash and crash. I thought, what is Baby (big dog) up to? I walked over and it wasn't Baby, it was Matty. He was swimming in the big dog pool! He was jumping all around and being crazy as can be. He was wet and filthy, and happy.
He is officially out of his shell. Cracked wide open.
The timid little creature he once was...
Don't be fooled by that face (and heartbreak hotel eyebrows) friends.
It.
Was.
All.
An.
Act.
"Haaaa haaaaa, I fooled them!"
I am just waiting for him to take out a couple of Cuban cigars and have his other pals from the neighborhood over to play cards.
Actually, in all honesty, he is a lot of fun, not tooooo bratty, and still not a barker. He listens, he goes out for potty, he walks himself to bed every night. He is smarter than smart.
But, he has his own 100% full fledged personality, and it's his way or...
"Let me out of here, I want to go swimming again......."
And it is hilarious!
But, I dare say, he seems too smart to be a puppy. What's up with that?
"Grrrrrrrr, I ain't afraid of nuthin' "
He acts tough until he hears the coyotes and then he leaps in my arms like a proper furry baby.
"I love you Mommy, will you pick me up now?"
This is funny, this puppy world. I had no idea. (my Mom thinks I have fallen over the edge, into puppy love insanity)
"I am so done with this photo shoot..."
And he is off...
With that, I must be off too, and back to my party prep. Thank you for hanging in there with me while I have been so busy!! I hope we have a blast this weekend with the party visits!
