Miss Sophie Says Happy Halloween

Monster dog

Well, it’s official. I may be obsessed with my dog. Really though, who could blame me? Look at that little face? Being Halloween week, I thought it was appropriate to share some pictures I took of Miss Sophie over the weekend. She has accumulated quite the Halloween costume collection over the last 5 years. This year, she is a 5 eyed monster…I got this little number at Michael’s for 5o% off. You’ve seen this already if you follow me on Instagram:) Dog pajamas Dog costume- pumpkin Dog costume- monster Dog Pumpkin PJsNow that I’ve posted a sufficiently obnoxious amount of photos of my dog in Halloween attire…I’ll let you all go on with your lives. I hope you have a wonderful Halloween week and I’ll hopefully be back later this week for an outfit post or two!

Happy 5th Birthday, Sophie

Pretty girl

As you may have noticed, I’ve taken a week off to get caught up on life. I have had so much going on with work, my shop, and just my every day life! I did, however, want to stop by to say happy birthday to my little munchkin! She turns 5 years young today! I know I will sound like a crazy dog lady here, but I don’t know what I would do without this little nugget by my side. She has given both Wes and I so much love over the last 5 years and we couldn’t imagine life without her! All of your dog moms out there know what I’m talking about when I say that my life would not be complete without this little peanut:)_DSC0129 _DSC0087 _DSC0067 _DSC0065I will be back next week….probably on Tuesday or so! Stay tuned!

You Know You Have A Dog When…

You know you have a dog when...

My dog, Sophie, is a huge part of my life. I mean, really…look at that face…how could you not love that little nugget! She is my pride and joy and I am a proud puppy Momma….so while sitting around thinking of something to write the other night, I starting thinking about all of the crazy things we dog owners do for our pets….and thus was born:

You know you have a dog when…

1. You give up doing extremely important things. I don’t want to get up to pee, the dog is so comfortable on my lap right now. If I get up, they’ll have to move and be uncomfortable. We can’t have that can we?

2. You contort into strange positions. Maybe if I lean to the side 45 degrees and crane my neck around and then type with just the tips of my fingers I’ll be able to see the computer AROUND the dog that is laying half on top of it.

3. Food mess becomes non existent. Oh shit, I dropped spaghetti sauce. Here Doggie! Come get it! Yummy food! All clean and no harm done. :)

4. The doorbell is your worst nightmare. Someone walks up to the door….*oh no* Tries to hurdle over every item in the room to get to the door before the…..*ding dong* *dog barks uncontrollably* door bell….

5. You spell words instead of saying them. Want to go for a W-A-L-K? Do we have any T-R-E-A-T-S? I think it’s in the C-A-R.

6. You give up valuable sleep real estate. Your pillow, your blanket, your half of the bed, wherever and however she wants to sleep…..she sleeps….

7. You have a scapegoat. Someone farted? It was the dog. You’re not bored with your friends, you just have to go home and let the dog out. Your house isn’t usually this messy….it was the dog. <wink wink>

8. You have spent an entire night at the Emergency vet because your dog is sick, may have eaten a scorpion, or consumes an entire bag of chocolate. It’s just too bad they don’t understand human talk. That would just be too simple…

9. The camera in your house that is supposed to be used for home security purposes, turns in to a way to spy on your dog while you’re not home. I wonder what my dog is doing right now? Let’s have a look!

10. Your little heart is just full. Who could resist those eyes and that little face? They are the sweetest thing in your life and your heart couldn’t be more full of love:)

The Pretty Puppy

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

I don’t understand people who don’t like dogs. I just don’t get how you could NOT love that little face up there! For those of you who are new to the blog, meet Sophie. (Or Sophers, Sophernugget, Nugget, etc.) I don’t have kiddos yet, so this little lady is my baby. You see quite a bit of her around these parts, especially if you follow me on Instagram, which you should:) It was a busy weekend and outfit pictures are just not ready for the blog yet, so Sophie is what you get today!

I’m pretty sure that this little pup is the most loved little nugget around. She came with me when I went to Dallas this past weekend to visit family. Unfortunately, Sophie couldn’t come with us to First Monday Trade Days in Canton. It’s basically a huge flea market that my parents go to pretty much every month. I hadn’t been since high school, but it was just as cool as I remember. If you are ever in the area, I would highly recommend it! They allow dogs to come, but I knew Sophie wouldn’t be able to walk around the entire time with her little baby legs, so we left her at my parents with Bailey the beagle. Maybe next time I’ll be like one of the ridiculous people in Canton with their pink dog strollers…or maybe not. Ha!
