I think I'm gonna like my new friend

So... I've been kinda sad and bored lately. I don't know why, I guess it's just that I used to be the baby; but, now Roman is. I love him so much, it's just hard to not be the special one of the family. I guess I moped around long enough. Todd came home yesterday with this guy!!

He's huge!! His name is Hades. He's a 3 yr old Boxer. Todd measured him to see just how big he is: Length 26" Height 26" His friggin head circumfrence is 20" Now... He's 70 1/2 lbs! He dwarfs my 52 lb hound body. I'm so stoked!! The first night we played in the backyard for hours. He's kinda easy to wear out; but, he's a good sport. He'll keep playing even when he's exhausted. I think I'm gonna like my new friend.

What a thoughtful present...

What can I say... I'm the sweetest dog on the planet! I got to thinking the other day that I should get Sienna a present. (It's been a while since she's yelled at me.) And to my luck, I happened to find a dead baby bird in the backyard and thought she might like it. There's a nest high in the tree and these baby robins have been falling out. They don't have any feathers yet. We're pretty sure they die from hitting the ground. Somehow, Todd has been finding them before me. Not this time. Anyway, I got it and brought it in the house. She had a little different reaction this time. She started screaming. She must have been really excited!! She even put on gloves to take it from me. Then she pulled out a bunch of cleaners and started scrubbing where I dropped it for an hour. Even though she threw it away, I know she liked it. I mean who wouldn't? I know if someone brought me a dead baby bird I'd think, "What a thoughtful present!"
(I wanted her to take a picture for y'all, but she wouldn't. Sorry!)
