I know you have been seeing videos of Cooper. Mom thinks he is funny when he talks to her or anything else. The weather has turned warm so we are resuming walks again. I am so happy about this. Although, I did like when our grass hid us and we could play hide and seek. We didn’t have to climb anything! The dandelions were taller than us. Though, take it from me, they aren’t worth hiding behind! We did get the grass cut, so now it is back to simply finding our favorite spots.
Nathan and Stina decided to put a tent up in the back yard. They said they were checking it out. I am not sure what they were checking. I could run straight through it. I think they are going away this weekend to an event and need the tent.
Also, my cousin, Kali, is coming to visit for a week. This should be fun as she always run Cooper crazy! Her parents and family are going on vacation. It will be fun to have her here with us.
Well, I have regaled you enough! Have a great week and weekend. Blessings

Cooper has a lot to say about decisions.

It has been a while since I have written. My days have been filled with staying warm. I do enjoy being outside for a few moments especially when I find a worm and I can rub myself on it. Apparently our lawn mowers are not working because the grass is getting as tall as myself. It has a way to go before it hides Cooper or Charlie. I have been impressed that Obi and Cooper are able to tolerate one another on the back porch.
Bigfoot has been creating walking sticks in the backyard. We have been looking them over. If you are interested in purchasing one, let me know.
I am hoping the weather will turn warm soon. Have a great weekend. Blessings.

Jumping on to tell you about a conversation on our walk. Mom said Cooper was doing better with his walking. Brenda said, “yes, he has kicked the cigarette butt habit!” (He used to pick them upn and it looked like he was smoking.) Love growing up.

A real quick note: this week I will be with Mom in her prayer room. If you need me, you can stop by. I will be more than glad to give licks and hugs. It is Resurrection Week after all. Love ya!

I simply want to know what happened to spring? It is cold out there! I still like the sun, but cold! Well, our birthdays, Cooper’s and mine, have come and gone. I don’t think I feel older. Cooper certainly is not acting like he is older. Oh, well, maybe we are supposed to remain “young at heart” as I have heard the saying. Poppa, Mom, Brenda and Stina all seem to be doing better. I still find it strange for Gram not to be in her room when I go in with Mom. Mom is slowly transforming it for herself. I, myself, am looking for the right spot to land. I mean, I like the couch, but near the heater would be perfect. If I could only communicat to Mom which side of the room I want. I might see where the sun ands before I make up my mind.
Mom has been talking about doing a yard sale in April. I am sure none of my things will be in there. She won’t put anything from Cooper either. He chews all his stuff.
Well, Charle and Cooper are done at the groomers so off we go!
Have a great week. Oh, and enjoy the cooler weather, spring really is on the way! Well, maybe….. Blessings.

The weather seems to be turning. I am enjoying the sun more on the back porch. I even enjoyed the rain the other day. I don't think I told you about my visit to the doctor. Well, it was a check up. Mom has been concerned about me. It seems I have seizures periodically. Poppa thinks it is just sinus but I think it may be more than that. The doctor did do extensive test, but every thing is normal. So Mom is going to keep track of the times it happens.
In other news, Mom is getting more comfortable with going out. Today, she went out for a couple of hours. She and Poppa are going to the gym. I wish I could go, but apparently I am too small to stay on the tread mill.
Periodically, I find her in the room Gram occupied when she was alive. I think Mom is using it as a place to pray and if her sewing machine is any indication, it will be a craft room.
Well, I should say goodnight. Sweet dreams!
