Lilly

 She is still growing. She is such a great dog. She has it all. Personality, looks, and color. She is a great addition to our family. Everyone that meets her loves her. I am personally going to keep one of her puppies. With her and my males genes, they are going to be amazing puppies. (will not breed until two years old)

Naughty.... naughty...

Once again I found myself shopping around on Etsy and I found the funniest wreath ever. Some may think it's a bit strange, but I happen to love this as it really depicts life in our house. The idea behind this wreath is that no one can be good all of the time and at Christmas, be naughtier than usual. If you can't tell.... the dog figurine is actually lifting his leg on the Christmas tree. Where in the world did the artist find this? 


So fitting as I reflect on this past year and all of the naughty little things our babies have done. For example, I came home from dropping my son off at preschool to find 7 gum balls sprawled on the dining room floor. Our lovely little critters had jumped on a bench and onto our table knocking cupcakes off the stand onto the ground and ate every last one of them leaving only the wrapper and gum balls which were on top. Apparently Frenchies don't care much for gum balls. Thank goodness the cupcakes weren't chocolate. LESSON LEARNED! Although Frenchies aren't known for jumping, they can do pretty much anything for food. 


Just so you know something like that would never happen at Nina's house. She just happens to be the perfect Frenchie mom. She doesn't spend her time messing around on Etsy or blog about it for that matter. I on the other hand have a home of what I like to refer as organized chaos. Dont' dare touch the stacks on my desk as I know exactly where things are!


I really do enjoy taking a break to blog and share bits of our life. I hope you enjoy it as well. Thanks for reading and have a great holiday season!!!

Cuter than cute!!

I ran across these awesome Frenchie note cards from Fat Bunny Press.  All designs are made by Eva Hamden, who designs and prints each product by hand.  I had to share them with you because I think they are cuter than cute!!

Pumpkin and Your Pooch

Did you know that pumpkin is good for dogs? It is packed with nutrition!! It contains iron and potassium which is good for blood pressure and healthy blood. It has large amounts of Vitamin A which helps improve vision and improve resistance to infections. Pumpkin also has fiber so if  your dog is constipated it may help give them some relief. It is also said that it can help with diarrhea as it absorbs water (we have never had to use it for such.... knock on wood!!).

Our dogs love cooked pumpkin! Just make sure that you are feeding them just plain pumpkin and NOT the pie mix because the pie mix contains sugar and other ingredients not in our dogs diet.

We freeze pumpkin in an ice cube tray which create a perfect portion for them to snack on. For our larger Frenchies we use a bit less than a tablespoon per cube. Smaller dogs would use 1 to 2 teaspoons. Remember only to feed it in moderation as large quantities of Vita A can be toxic to dogs!

Next time your dog has an upset tummy a little pumpkin may save you a trip to the pet store. Thanks for reading and enjoy!!!

Born to Cuddle

There is one sure way to get your child to sleep in their own bed... throw a Frenchie in it! After a long day of playing dolls and dress up it was time for the girls to go nighty night and I couldn't help but take a few shots as it had to be one of the cutest moments ever. There is no doubt about it, some Frenchies were  born to cuddle. 

Nighty Night!!
