 (Elioth:) I know, Ginger, I love to be near you, too...

 (Ginger:) Elioth, I just want to be with you...looking into those great blue sparkling puddles of your eyes...

 (Ginger:) You know what, Elioth, I had a really cool dream...I dreamt I was your 'lady' and I wore a big hat and curtsied and all that...it was so beautiful...
(Elioth:) Hmmm...really? That does sound cool. And what did I wear...and do?

 (Ginger:) Well.....OMDogs!! Mom!!! How long have you been eavesdropping on us?

Tiny's time

 Hi there!! ...sigh....

YAY!! Outside! The best place to be!

Why is outside so great? 

Well, I'll tell you why...because inside are those two little (now rather big!) whipper-snappers always trying to grab my tail...

and even jumping on me from behind doors! 

Grrrr-hisss!!

 And over there...behind that fence are those two other yapper-tailwaggers thinking that I - ME - TINY THE QUEEN - wants to play with them like Elioth does. 

Grrrr-hiss!!

 No, I just want to be here in the last few warm rays of sunshine enjoying the company of me and myself...and Mom. Actually, it's the only time (almost) that I have Mom to myself.

 If only she would just come work outside more often!!

Now that the weather is getting cold again, I guess I'll just have to brave the inside and go beat down those youngin's so I can have Mom's lap to myself. 

Life USED to be so easy...once upon a time.

Weez iz sorry!!

(Ginger:) Hi there!!

We, us, Elioth and Ginger, the heads of the household, are here to tell you that we deeply apologise for our slacking off as concerns our blogging duties. 

We have to blame the weather a little because when it is soooo nice outside, well, who wants to be on the computer?

(Elioth:) Yeah, Ginger, you say 'we' and 'outside' in the same sentence, but 'we' as in 2Shoes/Chouchou and I, well, this is as 'outside' as 'we' get...

(see our sad little faces up in that window while YOU look up at us?)

Usually, we kittens (yes, we are starting to really look cat-ly and actually are now 6 months old!) are usually doing this.

...or this. 

We spend a lot of time in the kitchen waiting for another meal.

We love to eat!!

 (Ginger:) Yeah, us dawgs do get to be in the real 'outside'...

like here...on one of our walks...

Would you believe 2 days after this picture was taken when we were in this EXACT spot with our friend Fido (dalmation), 

we chased A WILD PIG out of the bushes!! 

It was freakin' fun!! Wooo hooo!! 

Of course, Mom wasn't too happy about it!!

And during another outing (visiting our birth Mom)

we met this divine kitty - Scampy - who was really, really sweet.

(But that, you can tell by looking into her eyes!)

 

And in our garden...there are pretty flowers to enjoy...

...and even a GREAT, BIG PUMPKIN growing on our compost pile!!

Mom thinks it must be about 20kg already!!

OK, that's big for us..normally we have much smaller pun'kins!

 But when our dawgs are tired, we like to lounge and don't even mind if you cats join us. 

Of course, Tiny NEVER would...does she think we smell bad?? 

Hmm, I don't know why she would...

But you, Elioth, you are our bed buddy!! 

(see Elioth there in the middle?)

BUSTED!!

So here's my story - the official version:

Mom was out with the dogs. I was minding my business in Mom's studio when a very strangely appealing odor CALLED me from the depths of one of Mom's desk drawers.

I tried to ignore it, but it kept on calling me. So I did some snoopin' around (I'm a mega-good snooper!) and after some serious digging in that drawer, I found what was calling me: A HUGE BAG OF PREMIUM QUALITY NIP!!

Of course, I'm just a kid (we will be only 6 months old on Friday) and I don't know anything about kitty drugs so I seriously had NO CLUE that this stuff that was calling to me was some kind of drug. All I know is that it told me to take the whole package and rip it open ALL OVER THE FLOOR!!

So I did...

 And suddenly, I was teleported to heaven!! HEHHHHH-VINNNN!!

 And all I wanted to do was roll and roll...

 ...and smell and roll and get that marvelous heaven ALL OVER ME!!

 Yes!!!

 I was just SOOOOO HAPPY I wanted to bite anything!

But that was about the moment that Mom walked into the room....

...I thought Mom was going to explode, but then she just started laughing.

Whatever.....Dude.

WeezizBaaaaaackkkk!!!

(Ellwood:) Holidays are such fun! 

Beach holidays are super fun!

I especially love Sand Frisbee!

(In case you don't know what 'Sand Frisbee' is, it's what I call it when I jump in the air and bite at globs of wet sand that are tossed at me.)

 

Of course, jumping is fun, but getting people to throw sand for me is a lot of work and no matter how cute I try to make myself look, no one will do it for me all day long and I can't throw the sand for myself, so....

..when there is no jumping to do, I dig!!

Dig, dig, DIG!!

Digging is also fun!!

 (Ginger:) Paff...jumping after icky wet sand then trying to spit it out from your mouth is not my idea of fun. Nope. I prefer to run all over the beach!!

And since there are other dogs, I naturally MUST police every one of them and make sure they know that I am the Beach Boss.

 

Sadly, for some reason Mom thinks that me running around bossing other dogs is NOT a good idea, so she attached me to a piece of driftwood that was stuck in the sand.

Hmpf!! Ah well, don't worry, it wasn't very hot out (hey! we were waaaay up north on the Baltic Sea in northern Poland) and there was a lovely breeze that sang sweet songs to me.

 

When we weren't on the beach, we were walking in the forest. Look! Our friends the Irish Terriers were there, too...

Remember Agent, Eureka and Berda (the grandma)?? 

Yep, that's them! We were on holidays TOGETHER!

 Holidays are terribly draining and after a day of digging, jumping, playing, and bossing (policing!!), our dawgs is tired!!

 But not so tired that I can't give a few kisses to Elioth!

 Admit it, he does make for a great pillow!! haha!

 And while we are out working hard as dawgs, would you believe 

those lazy, good-for-nothing cats were just lying around!?
Scandalous!!
(FYI: the kittens came on holiday, too! Since Tiny HATES to travel, she stayed home to hold down the fort - our neighbor came to feed and love her during our absence.)

HA!! So since they can do it, WE MUST ALSO!!

Good night...the sun is going to take a big nap so I think this would be the perfect time for us to wish you a good nights' sleep!!

Yawn.... Good night!!!

Let's Play!!

 Hi there!! Whatcha doin'?

 Did you come to visit ME?

 You wanna play??

C'mon!!! Let's play!! I love, love, love to play with my throw toy!!

I'm waiting! I'm waiting!!
