Ninety Nine Paws

Dear Leo, This morning we were happily playing outside until about the fifth time around the yard, and then I wanted to go inside to have dry paws. Momma put me in the house and then you and momma disappeared! I was so worried that I waited by the front peek-a-boo window and then IContinue reading “Ninety Nine Paws”

Dear Leo, We stayed with the Mimi Aunt the last few days. It started to feel like home when she let me lay on the puffy doggy bed. I liked that a lot. It was so cozy. Mimi Aunt called it the, “visiting” doggy bed. I took ownership of that thing whenever I could. YouContinue reading “Ninety Seven Paws”

Dear Kimmy, Today we rode in the car for a really, really long time. I know that I’m a baby toddler, and that time is a rather abstract concept for me, but the car ride was like all morning from wake up to past nap time for me to be in the car. The bestContinue reading “Ninety Six Paws”

Ninety Two Paws

Dear baby, We need to talk. You have taken up the habit of, “playing,” with me by grabbing my paws or legs. I have something to say about this: I am not into it. Mama and dada say, “Stop, or looks like you want to play with Kimmy?” Mama and dada are good at showingContinue reading “Ninety Two Paws”

Dear Leo, This morning we had a fun time romping about in our back yard while a very loud dump truck moved things in the lot behind our house. You were quite excited about all of the commotion.

Dear Leo, Today I took charge of the stuffed animal friends and took some off the shelf in the other room. You didn’t see me steal the stuffy-s until I was laying on one of them and happily chewing away. The funny thing was that you had your own toy in your hand, but forContinue reading “Ninety Paws”

Dear Leo, Today it rained, all morning long. It rain, rain, rained on us while we played, walked, and then watched the squirrels from inside the house. I got so wet from our walk that mama needed to towel dry me off in the garage which made me feel really silly and wiggly. You foundContinue reading “Eighty Nine Paws”

Eighty Eight Paws

Dear Leo, Today you woke up a little bit early, we had fun playing in your kitchen space for a little while. I like to be able to get all your baby smells first thing in the morning because we’ve been apart all night. I worry about you when I can’t have you with me.Continue reading “Eighty Eight Paws”

Eighty Seven Paws

Dear Leo, Today we had a quiet walk around our neighborhood. You held onto your special tiger stuffed animal almost all the way home. As we walked down the last block toward home you started talking about something and mama stopped, luckily we realized that you had dropped your tiger friend Tai! Fun fact forContinue reading “Eighty Seven Paws”

Dear Leo, Hi baby! This morning we were rough house playing and you were super wound up, as mama and dada say. All of a sudden we were playing and then you were crying, I think you got bumped when you were crawling around on the floor and I bumped into you, accidentally. You satContinue reading “Eighty Six Paws”
