Rooney and I have a 6:00 a.m. flight tomorrow, ouch. I will get up at 3:00 as will dh whose job it will be to wear him out so that he will want to sleep while cramed under the seat in front of me. Luckily for us we got an upgrade to first class so Mommy will have free Bloody Marys and Roony's dog carrier will have a bit more room. Sadly, first class only lasts till Atlanta where we have an hour and 40 minute lay over and then onto a small plane to South Bend. I plan to limit his water before we leave but I am packing puppy pads and am hoping that he might "go" in the handicapped stall of the ladies room. They were made for that right?

Daddy is not coming - he is spending the holiday with his elderly mom so this adventure is just for Rooney and I. I hope all goes well, I'm sure I won't be sleeping tonight. This is Rooney's first visit up to Michigan to meet the rest of his family - I know that they will just love him. I'd love him to see some snow.

So Rooney has been with us for 3 weeks now. Here is what I have learned about my boy.

1. He HATES getting his feet wet. In the a.m. when it is time to potty - he hops around like a rabbit from flower bed to flower bed to keep his feet dry - too funny.

2. He hates getting wet - the groomer said he cried and cried during his bath - poor baby.

3. If he can find Rabbit poop - he will eat it - not funny.

4. At 13 wks he fetches the newspaper - I kid you not - I plan to video this when we get back from vaca.

5. He loves his daddy but he lives for his mommy

6. Expensive antlers aren't his "thing" - give the boy a cheap boiled shin bone and all is right with the world.

7. He hordes his toys - piles them all onto his bed and then tries to squeeze in.

8. He sneezes - a lot. Just like his mom.

9. This is Florida - if there is shade - he finds it.

10. The main thing that I've learned - that my life will never, ever be the same. He is my buddy, my boy and life is just so darn good.

I wish you all a very wonderful Thanksgiving, filled with lots of love and pie! It is 2:11 a.m. and I am up already, nervous. I just hope the people setting next to me today are dog lovers, I don't want to annoy anyone. The TSA screeners are going to be laughing - I look like I'm traveling with a toddler. Treats, bones, toys, stuffed monkey. Jeez. Oh and lets not forget the business cards of Rooney's breeder - I've grown weary of writing the info down on scraps of paper - LOL! xoxox Jane & Rooney

Have a great trip and I can hardly wait for all the fun stories you are going to have. Hey, while in First Class you can pull his crate up into your lap and stick your hand inside for some love. some people have even let their little guys sit in the crate, in their lap, with the top zipper door open so their little heads can poke out and look around. ha ha
