I'm posting twice today. Daddy took some pictures of me after a belly rub.  Ahhh.

I got a surprise this morning when grandpa showed up and walked me! Best morning ever! Well, it started out a little weird when Benny wouldn't stop staring at me through the fence.  I'm still playing hard to get.  I have my eye set on the golden retriever down the street.  

I was so mad when Momma left this morning.  I like spending Mondays with her.  I hid my bone in dad's slipper this morning, he'll never find it there!

Team USA!  Beach volleyball is my favorite olympic sport, except I hate sand.  I wonder if there will ever be a Shih Tzu Olympics, where I can win the gold in 1 legged pooping.

Who wants to rub my belly??

I wish Grammy would come and visit me.  I feel like I'm home alone all the time now.  Usually I just watch judge shows and text my friends, but its starting to get boring.

The best place to sleep? On my momma.  She smells nice and won't let anything bad happen to me.  

Momma stayed home with me today, and Grammy came over to visit.  I'm worn out.  I love grammy because she picks me up when its too hard for me to walk anymore.  Now I'm sleeping in the sun (getting my tan and some beauty sleep), and it feels so good.

Momma opened the window so I could do some bird watching.  I had to keep a paw on my raw hide so that no one would take it.

Momma's mad at me again.  So what if I use her face as a pillow at 2 am?  Its comfortable! 

Grammy came to see me today.  She always carries me home when it gets too hot.  Best grammy ever.

I wish I could have slept like this, but thunder and storms scare me.  I didn't leave daddy's side.  He always protects me.

I like when momma holds me like a baby.  I slept on her pillow last night, with my paw on her shoulder.  She says grammy is coming today to walk me, I can't wait.

Dad says there's an ancient Chinese proverb that states, "When the shih-tzu eats the grass, it's gonna be a hot one".  Yeah, it's gonna be a hot one today.

I wanted to post a picture of my two favorite people, Momma and grammy.  They take good care of me.

I was moving during this picture, which is why its blurry.  Mom's not the best photographer.

I spent 15 minutes trying to find a place to hide this bone. I tried under the glider, behind the glider, on dad's pillow, behind the dresser.  I ended up hiding it behind one of the pillows on the guest bed.  Mom saw me hiding it though, so I had to move it.

Dad didn't go to work today, so I got to lay on him while mom took a shower.  I was going to watch soaps and blog today, but mom and dad don't know about my blog.  Mom says theres too many weirdos out there that might want to kidnap a young shih tzu princess like myself.  I think she's over reacting.  My shih tzu mom wouldn't care.  She only cared about teaching me the important things, like how to clean your butt on the grass.

Grammy's birthday was yesterday, and guess how I celebrated?  Mom and dad gave me a 40 minute flea bath.  It was terrible, but now I'm less itchy. They also threw out all my toys, but mom went to the store and got me some new ones.  

I go through phases where I have to sleep ON mom and dad.  They get really mad and keep moving me to the bottom of the bed.  They must forget I have legs and can walk right back up there.

My new favorite napping spot is dad's pillow.  I lay here all the time.  It's really soft, and the best part-- it smells like dad.

I love hanging out the window, smelling the air, and looking at all the people.  Sometimes I want to jump out, but I know momma would yell at me.

This morning when dad went to work, I got in bed with my Auntie Erin.  Dad called me a traitor, but really, I just have to share the love!

Momma said I was driving her crazy this morning.  She was trying to leave for a doctor's appointment, and I decided I wanted to sun bathe in the yard.  I wasn't budging, so she had to come pick me up.  I didn't get any treats this morning.

Chewing on rawhide is exhausting.

Another day another dollar?  Not here.  Another day, another morning of mom putting a camera in my face whilst I'm trying to get some beauty sleep.

All Clean

This is me riding home from the groomers.  I feel so clean and nice.  Mom got me an alligator and some rawhide for being such a good girl.

I slept next to Momma's head last night.  Apparently she didn't like that.  She said I was snoring.  I don't think I snore.  

Hope you didn't want to read the paper, mom!  I can't wait for Hell's Kitchen!

Momma yelled at me this morning for eating grass again.  Dad lets me eat the grass, I don't see what that big deal is.  Dad has softball tonight, so mom and I are going to watch TV with me curled up at her feet.  Those are the best kind of nights.
