I love to see our babies grown up!! Lucy sure looks like Nicki!! She’s smart! Turns on the outside faucet when she wants a drink haha!! The boys are SO SWEET. Since these beautiful pups are NICKI babies they are the aunts and uncles of Dottie’s babies! She’s really getting FAT!! YEAH!!!

Happy 5th birthday to Nicole and Jack’s wonderful PARTI BABIES! Jubilee/Dalva, Gala/Spooky, FIESTA, Luau/Lucy, Marti Gras/Magic, CINCO, Jamboree/Aspen and PJ/Henri Wow ALREADY!! 😦 I’m no fan of birthdays! Birth DATES YES 😀 All’s well here. The girls are getting bellies and Dennis continues to annoy them haha. Harlee is back to school and loves her teacher 😀 We picked her up from school yesterday and Dennis crawled over the seat to get to her. Such a little goof.

Another mail box went up and she’s named EMILY POST haha. I love her poodle companion too!! These mail boxes are so fun!! You can’t miss the park driveway now with our white girl pointing the way! I’m about ready to put my craft stuff away, puppies will keep me to busy to do both. YEAH just 20 more days till we meet the Dottie & Wally babies!!! Click here

I love to see family resemblance. Pups get SO MUCH from grandparents, siblings and aunts and uncles!! You don’t realize it because rarely you get to see those family members!! We know it here we are on our seventh generations of wonderful pets!! Almost thirty years of poodles from our beloved Tootsie. One litter a year was a project the kids and I did together and enjoyed SO MUCH. In addition to resemblance we have a long health history! 😀
Everybody doing great!! Life is good!

Haha Dennis keeps Harlee on the run!! What a cutie he is. He really reminds me of Rene, those two will have ADORABLE babies!! Last day of summer for Harlee 😦 it’s back to school. I’ll have her after school three days a week until Bill buys a house. At least we’ll get to see her awhile longer!

Well she’s happy now!! She cries when we are getting ready to go to the park, she’s so cute. So very different from her stoic sister Rene. What a great pair they are! All’s well here. Dottie and Rene have babies bump, too early for Grace to show although she has a huge appetite which is a good sign, she is typically rather picky. Dennis Loves the girls and takes turns tormenting them, Gracie being his favorite, next Parris. He’s a delight and I’m so glad I have him to entertain us while we wait for our new babies!!

I love seeing the babies grown up! Greg/Burtie (Dottie and Wally baby, Nicole and Elliot grandbaby, Jazz great grandbaby)is a handsome guy and he really looks like Dottie’s brother SPOT! I love family resemblances, seldom seen because nobody keeps their own pups for some reason. WE DO! They are fabulous 😀

When Tom and Mindy go to Lansing to visit her family I babysit Rosalie and Lexie. They love to go to the park and they love our meals, but the initial shock of being left is devastating it seems 😀 Those SAD EYES crack me up. Rene is always happy to see her family. All three sleep with Harlee, life is good 😀

YEAH!! We think there are babies in there! Due WAY to close to the poodle reunion October 4th (due the 6th) I will be a wreck worrying about her (she has to come she can’t be alone). Dennis continues to delight us. Such a funny little guy! He is 18lbs now!! Really filling out nicely since he’s on GOOD FOOD!! It makes ALL the difference in a developing baby!!

Dottie snuck in a kiss! Haha Harlee was holding her so we could see her baby bump when SLURP an unexpected kiss 😀 Dottie is so darn cute!! She has such a delightful personality!!
We cant believe our summer is almost over. Harlee goes back to school Tuesday. Another year almost over!! I’ve been looking for poodle Xmas tree ornaments!! They are few and far between this year. I hope I can find more new ones!! It’s so fun to collect them!!
