Chi, Chi, Chiiiiiiii!!!!!

Today I dedicate my blogging to my little dog Simon. I've decided to do this b/c of the adorable pic I put up yesterday. Soon to come there will be a dedication to the husband and child. It will be in no particular order b/c I love them all!!

Simon is a handsome Chihuahua, 2 years in age. He's rambunctious, high strung and mellow. He can demonstrate all these characteristics and then some in a matter of mere minutes! He loves with his whole little--yet big-- heart and is always there to lick my ears which is his way of saying "I love you".

Ode To Simon (all the things I (we) love about you!)

• The way you randomly bark out the patio doors even though no one is there.
• The way you lay across the back of the love seat so you can get a better view out the back window. (A picture will inevitably be posted of this)
• The way you wait until Daddy and I are ready to go to sleep and shove your squeaky toy in our faces until we throw it for you.
• The way you balance on my side when I'm lying down and perch yourself there as though you're claiming me.(You do this to Daddy too and I know he loves it!)
• The all body grumbles and growls that come out of you when we play rough with the toys. You're a tough little cookie!
• The way your little tongue sticks ever so slightly out of your mouth when you're curiously wondering something.
• How you chew on your toe nails to try and help me out so I don't have to trim them so much!
• The fact that you can stand on your back legs for a very long time and dance around until I either give you a treat or pick you up.
• How I know you aren't crazy about me putting clothes on you but you let me anyway (in my defense I only do it in the Winter b/c you'd freeze your little booty off otherwise).
• The way you howl/whine at the security alarm if it goes off.
• The way you burrow under the covers and lean against me or Daddy when it's bed time or when you're cold.
• The way you lick the water off my legs when I get out of the shower.

Additionally, I know that Skyler absolutely loves it when you lick up his nose. Daddy and I find it nasty but Skyler likes it when you lick him period....

We love you little dog and I don't know what we'd do with out you. You are like a hairy version of a child who doesn't talk back. We love you!
