Where (the heck) You Been?

Yeh, where the heck you been?

OK, fine...where have I  been...whatever. I'm a busy gal, what can I say. There was Ballentine's Day, I had a birthday, mom's been outta town so she steals my laptop from me so she can play on that Facebook thingy while she's away. Oh, and we went for fun walkies and I guess Grady had another radiator treatment too. See, lots of stuff happens, whatchu want me to do about it?

Not sure who Ballentine is and why he gets his own day ('specially so close to my birthday), but they said it's the day of kissing. So, I tried givin Grady lots of kissies and all he wanted to do what bite my tongue. Maybe cuz I'm so sweet or taste so good or summin, but I just kept tryin to lick his face and wish him a Happy Ballentine's Day too.



But then a couple of days later, it was the most important day of all.....MY BIRTHDAY!!!! I turned 7 years old on February 16th. Mom Bean said I was lucky to make it that far and that I should be thanking her that she let me get there. We had a lil birthday party to celebrate where I got special cakes. Grady had to come tho....well, cuz he lives here and he's a Sissy LaLa if he doesn't get to play too.

The lady bean was outta town for my birthday and got home really late that night. That work stuff really gets in the way of my life sometimes. But as soon as she got home, we quickly sniffed out her suitcase to make sure no other doggies were with her (she can't be cheatin on us when she goes bye-byes!) ......
...and then we demanded CAKE!!!
Yo lady, where's my cake?! Hook it up now! I'm not gettin any younger here...

So, she knew I meant business and started makin the goodies... This delicious masterpiece is MINE! There's 7 nanas for 7 years and a happy face cuz I make everyone happy...

And Grady's...He got da crazy face....cuz he makes everyone crazy.

She was mean and made us wait a lil bit. Thank god she didn't sing....it's almost as bad as her cooking. As you can see, Grady and I were a bit worried she might tho....
 
Then, we ate....

Grady was very messy, I was very clean. I kept all my birthday cake on my plate while he shuffled his plate all around the floor, and spilled goodies all over the place. I was eating cake off the floor for days thanks to him. So, I wasn't complainin. Mom bean on the otherpaw, didn't quite appreciate stepping on birthday cake with her bare feet and kept tellin us to clean up our mess. Doesn't she know that's why we hired her?!

Grady had another radiator...ugh, radiation treatment that day too. This was his #4 and as you can see, his boo boo is gettin even smarller. You can barely see it anymore and the beans are happy with how things are going.

Then the weekend came and Grady and I got to go to the walkies park. The weather was really nice and the beans wanted to do something fun for me and Grady since we're such awesome dawgs and spend all week watchin the house while they do that work thing. So, we were a bit stunned when they said we were goin bye-byes...

Did you say bye-BYES?!! OK, let's go. Whatcha waitin for peeps, hurry it up!

Grady was so excited, he went to grab the lady beans shoes, but he's so stoopid he grabbed her slipper instead. It wasn't nite-nites time you dummy!

I was smart and grabbed a toy. We needed summin to do in the car ride there.

Then we gots there and had so much fun. The beans kept wantin to take pics, we just wanted to chase the squirrels, play with the other doggies there, chase the people riding those bikes and just sniff the air.

We got there and I was in charge of leading the way. This frustrated the Dad Bean, but he has to learn that I am the lead dawg 'round here. I know where I'm going.


The we stopped for that photo op, just to give the hoomans a break. We wore them out...

 

SQUIRREL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched for Quack-Quacks! Very important job. My last time I saw the quack-quacks, they stole my tennis ball! I was hopin they remembered to bring it back this time. No such luck tho...

Then we got home and were very tired. Grady couldn't even make it to the couch, he just passed out on the floor like some drunk comin home after a party...

I was fine with his choice in the floor, especially since I got the couch...

Then, we got our energy back and played with the new toys I got for my birthday. Grady tried to steal all the toys, so I tried distracting him a lil bit so I could steal em back. Normally, I'd just take em, but being a Sissy LaLa, he'd just go tell on me again. So this was my method... Roll around, kick a lil bit, maybe hit him a few times, bite my leg and scratch my back, then when he gets annoyed and walks away....I get my toys back.

He didn't seem interested. Jerk. So, I had to just steal em from him while he laid there and of course....he pouted.


Then  like a few days later, they said it was supposed to snow. The beans know Grady loves to catch the snow flakes in the air and he always gets so excited when it's going to snow. I don't understand the whole "catchin the snow flakes in the air" thing that he does. I'd rather wait til it's on the ground. Seems like too much work to jump up and catch the flakes. This is why he's so dumb.

Well that and he stands around waiting for the snow.

Seriously? He's looking for the snow? How much of a ding-dong-ping-pong can he be?  This is North Carolina....we don't get snow...

Funniest part was.....we didn't get ANY snow. So, what do you think he did.....he pouted of course.

Big Baby!

But the next day, Grady seemed to be in better spirits. Maybe it's the radiation makin him feel better, maybe it was me sharing my birthday cake with him, maybe it was the walkies in the park or the thought that it might finally snow at some point but either way, I was just happy that he wanted to play. 

This moment made the hooman beans smile and I'm not gonna lie...it made me smile too. :)

And something else that made us smile....Grady won a free rag quilt from one of the lady bean's friends. Launi hand makes these quilts and I have one that means "I like to party."

But since I didn't like to share my quilt with Grady, the lady bean entered for a chance to win a free quilt just for him. When she found out that she won a custom made quilt, she almost cried. I think she was just as happy as I was that I wouldn't have to share my blankie with him ever again! Grady's quilt came in and it's perfect for him too. It's monkeys cuz he's a monkey face and frogs cuz he lays like a frog sometimes and the beans call him "frog dawg." Grady LOVED his quilt. And the best part is I no longer have to share mine with him...

Launi makes these quilts for doggies and hooman beans too (even the mini hooman beans too!). You should check her out sometime. Here's her blog so you can order a party blankie or frog dawg blankie or even a custom blankie for yourself too.... Cuz I'm pretty sure Grady and I won't share our blankies with you either... http://launisragquilts.wordpress.com/

We love nappin in our blankies. But get your own, k?!

So, now you're caught up on me. But the question still remains....Where the heck YOU been? Being lazy, I'm sure. That's what hooman beans do anyways.
