  • Today was a quiet milestone. Hugo is 11 today! This birthday was extra sweet after the scare he gave us a month ago.

    Naturally Luna wanted in on the party

    Finally, the sign of a good party is a good nap.

  • This weekend we had a good friend come by and do our annual family photos. He brought a special treat of a camera that took me back to using iMac’s in the computer lab in school. A Sony Digital Mavica MVC-FD7 complete with floppy disk storage.

    Naturally I used it to take photos of my dogs and you know what, they turned out much better than I expected.

  • The dogs often compete over who gets the bed by the window so today we upgraded to a bed big enough for the both of them and they took right to it.

    After 3 days of birthday parties, Christmas, and family visits the pups are pretty happy to have a quiet morning.

    Hugo curled up between my legs with Luna laying on top of him in my lap viewed from behind.

    Today is Hugo’s 8th birthday he got a big treat for a big day.

    Hugo staring at his large bone shaped doggie treat that says happy birthday
    Hugo’s eyes are so wide that he appears to want to consume the treat by looking at it.

    Luna staring wide eyed at a fox face shaped dog cookie while Raquel restrains her.
    Luna also got a little treat to prevent her from straight up stealing Hugo’s birthday treat.

    To help Luna with the transition to having a baby in the house we got her a special bed.

    At night we pile up the dog beds on the couch so the Roomba can clean. First thing this morning she still sought it out.

    Even when you fall off you just hop back up and reset

    Hugo has big dreams of what a lazy Saturday should be like and he has had quite enough of the sun.

    Yesterday while I was working Hugo decided he would attempt to achieve maximum comfort.

    It’s the exact time of day when there’s only one bed in the sun
