Aaah.... I just finished reading all the updates on Papi - have not been on my computer last few days. I am just so happy that he does not have to have open heart surgery.... I have no words to describe my absolute relief.
The procedure he is going to have done instead, he will recover from very quickly and will have a LOT more energy once those aneurysms have been dissolved.
Patti, I am SO excited for you that you will be adopting a baby girl!!!!!
How lucky that little angel is to find a forever home with you and Jack. I cannot think of a more loving, nurturing environment for a puppy to grow up in.
It is just so adorable the way you describe Baby Blessing's little performance when she is going through her "beauty routine", sticking out one little paw at a time as if she is the lady of the house having a manicure...TOO cute!! I Just wish my naughty rascal, Mango would learn such good manners. She did graduate from "Obedience School", but for sure they passed her on the cuteness factor alone. She was too busy bouncing and zooming around the class to learn really, much of anything.
She has a particularly cute routine when I tell her, "Mango wanna go out with Mommy?" First she will do her little happy dance that we call the "Mango Tango", then
she will run to the place where the brushes are kept, because she knows Mommy always brushes her before leaving. However, in order to submit to this, she insists on chewing one or two brushes, which have to be on the floor in front of her, while Mommy combs her coat. Then, the VERY second her "beautifying" is complete, she zooms over like Speedy Gonzales, right into her doggy bag (which is open on the floor),
going at SUCH a demented speed, that usually the bag flips over, Mango and all. No matter how many times this happens, the little stinker just does not get it, will repeat the same "zoomy" before the next outing, and will once again be somersaulting inside her bag. She most often then jumps out and growls at the bag, as if reprimanding IT for bad behavior. TOOOO funny to watch. I could just eat her right up.... my funny little demented girl.
Hugs to all,
Lauren
