I have a new cousin!

Her name es Yuki, and she lives in California.  So maybe now I will have an excuse to ride in an airplane....

She es a Sheep-doodle, and es already much bigger than me.  But I love big women....so.  I am excited!

A visit this weekend from my niece

Es Kaylee my niece?  I am thinking it es so, pero the relationships in this familia can be mucho complicated.  It es also mucho dificil to get these pictures to load correctly.  HOWever, here they are.  We were having a nap time together.  This es hokay, up to a point.  You can see the progress of our nap time:

 

 

 

 

That es Anna who es helping us to nap, and also sneaking pictures of us to get evidence against us, pienso.  I can take only so much togetherness, you know?  Then I am getting testy with Kaylee.  She es kind of heavy, and when she leans on me, I feel like I will soon be flat instead of nicely shaped as I am normally.

And then on the beach today, she knocked me over so I could not get up.  Everyone laughed at me, and said I was like a turtle, whatever that es.  I was very much embarrassed and annoyed by that.  Here I am attempting to regain my dignity, but I have so much sand on my coat it es muy dificil.

 

So while I enjoy company, it es also bueno when they go home again.  It es really nap time now, and I can go under my own covers in my own bed and finally relax, and know that someone bigger than me will not be smushing me.

un dia mas bueno

It es much nicer outside today, and Mama took me for a walk on the beach.  The stairs are fixed, so it es easier for her to go down and then get back up.  I don't have any troubles anyhow, as I am un perro muy atletico.  Pero, I am out of practice, it has been so icy for so long here, and I don't do icy.

So, here are some pictures of me in action on the beach:

There es mucho stuff on the beach to sniff and it all needs to have my message on it.  This es hard work.  But you notice I am going without the leash, Mama is becoming mas comodo with me being loose, which I like very much.  I have to listen for her, she cannot keep up with me, I am so fast, but if I take my time sniffing and marking, she can catch up hokay.

So we had a nice time.  Then later I am going to take Abuelita for a walk, and go to her casita to see what she has to eat.   This es my favorite kind of dia.
