Amazing Kitty!

Ok so I know this has nothing to do with the title of my blog - but if you have been here before you know I can be random.

I wanted to show you how AWESOME my cat is!

Adorable huh?

And yes she is in my tub - she thinks the tub and sinks are her personal play places. She even takes baths and showers with the kids.

Check out the video below! 

Haley taught her this awesome trick! Haley is like the cat whisper the darn thing LOVES her!

Amazing huh?

She loves her dogs so much! She should -  she has 7!

Would you ever do something that could hurt these cute little babies?

Well she wouldn't even think about it!

We were talking one day about cleaning house, kids, dogs, etc. and I told her she should check out Shaklee because it is non-toxic.

And who more to get in trouble with chemicals and harmful products - very cute curious puppies!

She says it is so nice to not have to worry about her babies any more! She knows she can clean and not worry anymore because the Basic H2 (R) Organic Cleaner is non-toxic and she can use the wipes or the spray!

They are all so curious about everything!

Looks like big boy Parker (her oldest) and a cute little puppy are trying to chase her mop!

No worries! She is cleaning with non-toxic supplies. So she knows her puppies will go to homes healthy.

How sweet!

Bad Blogger

I have been a really bad blogger friend! My life has been super busy and crazy the last week! So sorry to my bloggy friends!

One of the things that have been consuming my time (aside from my 2 crazy tweens) is my super awesome dog Nikki!

I have had Nikki for 9 years and she has been such a close companion and she loves back unconditionally! Now she will is a little grumpy and has done the occasional snippy at some kids if they bug her or she is grouchy but I say she is temperamental not aggressive in any way.

My super awesome doggie started acting weird the other day. Within a little bit of time I knew something wasn't right with her. I am her it person and she will do anything I ask her to do. When I asked her to go outside she didn't move from her bed. She still won't eat or drink or go outside to go potty.

I decided to take her to the vet. After xrays and an exam and $300 later we still don't know what is wrong. We elected to get the pain meds and wait on the blood work. It seems not good and some of you may hate me after this but she is my dog. I LOVE her, I mean I LOVE her but she is a dog and I have 2 kids and so there is a limit on the budget we have to work with when it comes to our animals ):

I tried to take her outside to go potty and she just laid down - nothing.

She doesn't want to move.

Rebel is trying to take care of her - it is so sweet! And sad.

So as you can see, my days are being more overwhelming than normal.

So I am a bad bad but Sad blogger right now.

Sorry if there are any gaps in my blogs but I am trying to take care of my doggie plus keep up with all my daily duties!

Preparing for a Trip

When planning a vacation there are so many things to think about! I mean the trip itself is so exciting and we have to plan on what to take and what not to forget, but at the same time we have to think about our home and our animals.

First I had to get a responsible person to take care of my animals!

We got Savannah! She is our neighbor and she is great with our animals and super responsible!

I knew that she would take great care of Nikki, Rebel, and Patches!

You also have to think of certain items in your house that you may not want to return home to. So here is my list:

1. Make sure all trash cans are emptied outside.
2. All dirty dishes are loaded and washed in the washing machine.
3. All left overs emptied out of the refrigerator.
4. Litter Box emptied and refilled with new kitty litter.
5. Plentiful cat food ready for animal sitter.
6. Plentiful dog food ready for the animal sitter.
7. Feed fish.

Now that we have taken care of the important things at home it is important to make sure you have everything to take on the road for the trip.

1. Tickets for events on trip.
2. Gift Cards
3. Reservation information.
4. Map/Route information.
5. Emergency Contact information.
6. Suit cases with clothes, swim suits, lap top, game systems and LOTS OF FUN!

Now you can sit back, travel on, and ENJOY A GREAT VACATION!

12 Paws and 3 Tails

I haven't really touched on my awesome animals!  Yep - 12 paws and 3 tails that is what we have running around our house!  They are sometimes crazy, they've torn up some things, and ruined my carpet (ugh!) but I LOVE THEM!

This is Nikki. Otherwise known in our house as the "fat mammas". Ok so she is a big shih tzu and a little hefty but her she got her nickname because she is kind of hefty and she is a mamma to every little critter we have had. The poor thing has had to put up with countless kids and was pretty much pulled and drug everywhere when the kids were toddlers which has now made her well....temperamental. I find myself now having to put her up when little kids come over (after she nipped after my friends toddler - no blood but a little mark after he accidentally stepped on her tail). But I sure do love this dog!

She has made me upset at times for growling and like I said she nipped at my friend's little boy and I thought I was going to die! But this dog, she loves me and I love her. Nikki and I have been together for almost 8 years now and we have been through countless military deployments, and she has moved many times and thousands of miles. She has always adapted and still been a loyal friend and a protective companion.

This is Rebel or otherwise known in our house as "bubby shwubby". He was our solution when I started to get the itch to have more babies about 5 years ago.  I was sending my baby off to kindergarten, I was only 28 years old and many people my age were just now starting to have babies. But..... my mom and Michael got talking and they new I wanted another puppy so we agreed that I would move on from having another baby and settle for this cutie pie (and I got a new washing machine lol!).

Rebel is very curious about everything! He is always getting into some sort of trouble and we can totally thank him for ruining my carpets even though he is 100% potty trained. I think he does it on purpose when we don't do something he likes. But I can't help it, he is one of the loves of our lives and he is sweet and stupid but the most loving of all of our animals.

Bubby is the perfect medicine to a bad day! How can you resist that face?

Patches is the newest member of our family. We have had her about a year and a half and she is the funniest cat I have ever had. As you can tell she loves to sit in our sinks. She curls up and sleeps there. Sometimes she wants my sink and sometimes Michael's. She also loves to lay in our bathtub too! She is vocal and playful! She loves playing with straws and drinks water out of the faucet (as a matter of fact she almost refuses to drink water any other way).

As you can tell these 12 paws and 3 tails mean so much to our family! I know that these awesome animals love us and I can't imagine not having them with us everyday! After a stressful day I love petting and loving on our pets!
