The other night, my father-in-law came over so we all went outside to say hello and help move some things. We left Jackson inside. The Lorax and I played outside for a bit when Dan and his dad left. We came inside to get something and Jackson was no where to be found. He didn't… Continue reading Oh Buddy, You’re In Trouble

Dogs on Thursday & A Quick FO
I haven't participated in Dogs on Thursday in a while, so certainly it is overdue. I thought I would share how Jackson and Lorelai currently interact (with some commentary)This is one of Jackson's best tricks - we call it "The Squirrel" because how he sits upright with his itty bitty paws. Lorelai frequently walks about… Continue reading Dogs on Thursday & A Quick FO
Psst!
Can you ask Santa to bring me some toys and treats?
My Dog is Such a Good Sport (Part1)
I'm so "one of those moms" - you know the kind that get all Martha Stewart about stuff? Yeah, it's in my genes. My mom did it and I love it - still do, I've already started a file of magazine pages with ideas for costumes / parties / decorations / crafts for when Lorelai… Continue reading My Dog is Such a Good Sport (Part1)
Not right either.
I've got this idea in my head to make a witch hat. For babies. I started with one pattern and got something way too big. A bit of re-thinking and I decided to start again and this time make the newborn size (less knitting to see if it works!) Well. It doesn't match what's in… Continue reading Not right either.
Kisses
Trying to make one post to cover everything. First, it is Thursday, so there's a Jackson spotlight for Dogs on Thursday:He's been pretty good since we returned from vacation. Only one accident in the house (we give him one free pass when he comes back to us) and he's uber-affectionate. Kisses all around, especially for… Continue reading Kisses
Playtime (Dogs on Thursday)
Jackson is a very playful dog - part of that clown-around-dachshund personality. We've always had toys for him, and ever since he was a puppy we've had our own version of "fetch". We throw the toy. He runs after it. He picks it up, brings it back and doesn't let go! We're working on it… Continue reading Playtime (Dogs on Thursday)
Dogs on Thursday
In keeping with my 101 list, I'm trying to shoot a roll of film each month. That's actual film, negatives, not digital. I have a very basic SLR that I adore, but I am still learning how to use it properly. The fun part is seeing what pictures I actually get among all the others… Continue reading Dogs on Thursday
My Chair – Dogs On Thursday
A few summers ago I bought two big round chairs at Target (Papason?). They are comfortable to curl up and read in, have room to knit, but we used to joke that wouldn't it be nice if Jackson would sit in there? Last year (2006) around Christmas, he would go sit in the chair -… Continue reading My Chair – Dogs On Thursday
Hanging out at the Gym (Dogs on Thursday)
Lorelai's toys (not that there are many) are in the same room as Jackson's toys. It's where we all hang out, so there's bound to be overlap. And many baby toys are just like the dog toys - bright colors, squeaky, rattles, crinkly. So it's only natural (to us) that we put them both down… Continue reading Hanging out at the Gym (Dogs on Thursday)
