Before we got Snickers it had been about 8 years since we had a yorkie in our lives. My son was a baby and I wanted to wait until he was older. Since we've gotten Snickers, and then Baxter, our lives are pretty much ruled by them. We don't travel as much as we used to, because we won't leave them. I used to do kickboxing 5X a week and was in great shape. Since the yorkies, I've stopped because I felt guilty for the time I spent at the gym. Now I won't even go on a treadmill because it takes time away from them!

So yeah, they rule our lives and I'm not as fit as I used to be. But that's ok because I have two little angels that give me more joy than traveling or exercising. My son is going off to college this summer, and now I have two babies that will always need me. My yorkies give me pure happiness, what else in life could do that?
