Snow dogs

So we took the dogs to park - we haven't bee since it snowed, they had a great time - Cosmo is a little small but can get around okay, Kiri just bounds around like a bunny

Of course Joe and Cosmo went for a swing. Joe likes the swing and Cosmo loves going up in his lap when he swings.

Kiri chases Joe around:

All tired out from all the fun

New pictures of Kiri

I love her ears in this one

It's unbelivable how fast she is growing up. New pictures of Kiri:

Captain Hook's Revenge

Come one come all to KWLT's pantomine Captain Hook's revenge.


Captain Hook's Revenge

In this new take on the classic tale of Peter Pan, Captain Hook plots his revenge against the young boy with the help of his crew of enthusiastic but inept pirates. With the help of the Lost Girls and other Neverland locals, Peter has to find a new wife for the chief of the Neverland tribe, a mother for the Lost Girls, and save his new English friends from Captain Hook's fury.
Captain Hook's Revenge is a traditional English Pantomime. An English tradition for the Christmas season, Pantomime involves wild plots, memorable characters in colourful costumes, song and dance. Brave heroes and crafty villains, knock-knock jokes and lewd humour all combine to make Pantomime fun and friendly for the whole family to enjoy. Audience participation is strongly encouraged – lest ye walk the plank!

The dentist - parts 1 through 4

So about two years ago I had a root canal done and before I had the crown put on I had no benefits so the I didn't get a crown. Along the way the tooth cracked and since I have benefits now I decide it's time to fix it. The Wednesday before Halloween I went in and made an appointment. That night I was eating a brownie I took a large bite and thought "Oh I didn't know these brownies had walnuts." Well it wasn't a walnut it was a part of my tooth. So I call the dentist the next day and they fit me in on Friday. So I go in a x-rays are done and a temporary filling is put in. They make another appointment. I get there and they remove the temporary filling however my gums have grown and they are in the way so the pull back the gums (owww) and put in another temporary filling in an attempt to push the gums back. I went in again this Monday however the gums haven't been pushed back enough so I get to go in again Monday coming up. If the gums still haven't receded enough I get to have the gums removed with a laser. Now the problem is the corner of my gum - it's quite thick and they don't know why. If there is just gum then everything is fine. If there is ligament or bone then I get to have gum surgery. I find out next Monday oh joy!!!

All Hallow's Eve

Because I am such a big kid I still love dressing up even if it's only to hand out candy. I must have done a good job because a little boy said to me "Are you a real vampire?" It was so cute. I wanted to dress up the dogs but Joe drew the line - Cosmo hates it anyway but Kiri would probably be game. Rachel and Avery came over - Avery was Hannah Montanna and Rachel was her manager - never watch the show but the actor is Billy Ray Cyrus. Here are some pics!

She's growing up

And apparently teething :)

Kiri is no longer in the basement for the day when we head to work. She actually gets to stay in the house all day. Cosmo seems to be okay with it too. They sleep most of the day away anyway. However....puppy proofing the house has become vital. The second day Kiri was out this is what we came home to.

And yes she got into the puppy treats - it's a bag of "Beggin Strips" (in the shape of bacon). So now we have puppy proofed the house. Although you can't see it she chewed a CD - a freakin' CD and yes, she has chew sticks and chew toys!

She also seems to love rolling in crap and digging big holes :)

Thanksgiving weekend

Thanksgiving weekend was good. We went up to Joe's parents and decided to give Kiri a bath so she would be nice and white and clean - we went to park later and she decided the dig this great big hold in the ground and got very very dirty in the process - here is a pic of our dirty girl.

So it was back into the bath she went:

We did eventually get to his parent - this year there were 13 people and 4 dogs Cosmo, Kiri and Joe's parents dogs Molly and Maggie - Molly is the brown poodle and very jealous - she is used to be the centre of attention and wasn't this weekend - the nerve of the new dogs!! Kiri and her aren't really ever going to be friends but her and Cosmo seemed be fast friends.

We all dined on turkey and stuffing while Kiri seemed to enjoy my smelly old sneakers.

mmm... sneakers!

By the end of the day we endedup with full bellys and two tired little ones.

all cuddled up with mom
