Leigh & Allie's Blog (10)

Phew. What a past several months we have had. I have learned something new about Allie. She does NOT like change just like her mommy. Here's the "short" version. We finally sold our home last year in a neighborhood which in my opinion was going down hill. Yea! Now we were able to build our dream home on the lot we had already purchased which meant we had to rent until our house was complete. Allie did NOT like the move. She counter surfed to show her disapproval of the rental. $1800 hospital… Continue

Hey Doodles, Allie here. I don't know if you have ever heard this but my mommy says to always go to the slot machine that is close to a door. That is where you can hit a "jackpot" whatever that is but I think I have an idea. Today there are going to be many wonderful smells. I mean almost too much for a doodle to handle. Pumpkin, turkey, stuffing......what is a dood to do?!?!?!?!

The plan......as everyone comes in today be sure to sniff them out. The really smelly ones are…

Wednesday afternoon I brought home some muffins from the office. We had had a meeting and there were some left over muffins so I brought two home for my son. I got a blueberry one and a chocolate chocolate chip one. These were the really BIG ones you can get at Costco. I bet you know where this is going.....so anyway, my son ate the blueberry one on the way home from school. When we got home he put the chocolate chocolate chip on the counter. Allie has NEVER shown any interest with anything on… Continue

Yesterday afternoon I realize something is wrong. REALLY wrong, I am experiencing MAJOR pain in my stomach. I go into the kitchen where my son, Mark, is. He is 11 years old. I look at him and I tell him something is wrong and I need his help. Mark helps me put my shoes on. I call DH and tell him to come home immediately. I then call my mom because I am thinking she can stay with Mark. I need to get to the hospital NOW. Surprisingly DH gets home first. He takes one look at me and says we are…

So Allie had her first haircut yesterday. I almost cryed when I picked her up. She was so unique before and now I think she looks like a poodle. DH kept calling her a poodle this morning. Anyway I keep telling myself it will grow out. I think from now on I am going to just get her face cut and let the rest grow out. The groomer said I had done a good job with keeping her brushed…

The ever knowing (ie. know it all but I did not say that) DH came home yesterday and took Allie outside to do her business (yes this is a feat in itself. Last week he came home and did not let her out after being in the crate for a few hours and yes she did pee right in front of him..... hehehe). The back ground.... I mostly work from home and just go into the office for a little bit. During this time I put Allie in her crate. She is now six months old. So basically she is in her crate for…

Very curious what your doodles do when you vacuum. Allie, now at 6 months old, has more freedom to roam around the house. Today I was vacuuming and I was surprised to find that she was not scared of the vacuum but would follow me around. She kept looking at me and it looked like she was saying "o.k. when are you going to be finished with that?' I thought "I'm with you on that one". She would kind of side step the vacuum but did not seem scared of it at all. I realize I have not noticed it… Continue

It all started when I got married a little over a year ago. My son, Mark, and I moved into my husband's house. My husband built a pond with a waterfall several years ago. I had always commented that it would be perfect for fish. He told me that Mark and I were welcome to fill it with fish. Did he have a clue that that was going to be the understatement of the year? So right after the honeymoon, Mark and I went to our local Petsmart and inquired about… Continue
