Its Christmas again !

Hiya Everybody,

Its Christmas again, I'm not entirely sure what that is but it means there are lots of great smells around the house and we get new toys and treats and Mummy and Daddy stay home and take us for lots of walkies.  It also means we get lots of pretty lights around the house and trees to hold them up.

Now I'm a bit worried about Barney with the trees because when he sees these outside in the woods he often does a tripod act an wee wees on them.  I don't think Mummy and Daddy would be very impressed with that so I have been watching him.  Now he is still very young and he is getting a bit carried away with this Christmas thing, look he even uses his bone like a trumpet to make his bark louder (he only has a little bark)

Funny little thing isn't he!  Now Freddie the terrorist is getting a wee bit older and he is becoming almost calm, particularly if he has been out for a big walkies with Barney and me.  The only problem is he is a typical boy and is not very elegant when he is asleep and is it really necessary to wave it in my face when I'm trying to sleep Really!  Such a fuss about nothing.

Now these trees that I mentioned we have one in the lounge where our soft beds are and one in the dining room where our hard beds are both are really pretty, I think I prefer the one in the lounge see what you think.





The first one is the one in the lounge and the second one is the one in the dining room, you may have to lay on your side to see these properly as I haven't quite got the hang of the camera just yet.  Sorry about this.

Well its back to bed for me and Barney Uncle Paul and Auntie Carole are staying and Uncle Paul goes very very early to go to work and comes home then goes to bed (I Think he has a bit of doggie in him, he like to go to bed in the afternoon like me and Barney).  Mummy says it's because he's a 'Tube' driver, but how can you drive a tube, really Mummy you can't fool me!

Were off to see Nanny and Grandad sand on the week end I wonder what Barney will make of a sandy beach.  I bet he goes in the water again, he did when we went to see Nanny and Barrie pebbles, silly doggie when will he learn.  There is lots to do on the beach though and some wonderful smells.  its going to be great fun!  We are so lucky.

I have to go now so Merry Christmas from me and Barney, hope you have as much fun as we will.

Merry Christmas every one, lots of love to you all

Ahhh Sunshine

Hello again,

Its been fairly quiet of late, Barney has settled in really well, cheeky guy has even started to make himself at home in my beds but he is really good company even if he wants to play most of the time.  Well I suppose its just he is still very young.

We had Freddie the terrorist over on Saturday morning for a big walkies, daddy took us all to the woods after it had rained a lot on Friday night and there were lots of big puddles in the pathways.  i tried to explain to Freddie and Barney that these could be used as practise for ditch jumping, but Freddie's legs are too short and Barney just loves the water, so the end result was they just ran through the big muddy puddles rather than gracefully sprang over them.  what a state they were in by the time we got back to the feilds.

Daddy is really quite clever though, you remember that Freddie and Barney like to chase a ball (its a boy thing I think!)  well Daddy made the ball go into the long wet grass, so by the time we got back to the car they were very wet, but quite clean.

The walk that Daddy took us on was a lot longer than the normal one so we were all tired when we got home, even Freddie and Barney had to admit defeat and lay down.  I introduced them to the pleasures of stretching out in the sunshine in the lounge, as you can see the warmth really send us off to sleepies.

Now I have to admit I didn't take this photograph as that me fast asleep in the front, but as you can see with a bit of careful organisation we all get our own shaft of sunshine to sleep in.  Clever huh.

Must go now the suns just come out again and I feel a snooze coming on.

Love to every one.

What no collar

Hiya everybody,

Barney and me took daddy for his walk around the block this morning as usual and we were just getting home when I spotted a new doggie in the area, naughty doggie ran across the road by our house into a front garden opposite, he didn't have a collar or a mummy or daddy with him.  I wanted to go and say hello, but daddy wouldn't let me.

Daddy did manage to get this photograph on his telephone thing so if you know where this doggie lives let his mummy and daddy know he was out on his own this morning.  In case you were wondering Barney didn't see a thing, but then he is a boy and they walk along smelling all sorts of nasty things, he has always got his nose in places that he really shouldn't.

I hope I get to see this doggie again, it is really pretty, looks a bit like me.

write soon, lots of love

Problem Solved!

Hiya everybody,

Remember the last time I wrote that I had a worry about Barney being too close to the food making room with the shiny black floor (the kitchen) whilst I was making myself comfy in his new bed.  Well I solved the problem, if you can't beat them , then join them.  However I need a bit of comfort whilst I am watching for tasty treats, so I use the fur ball as a pillow.  See:- 

If we both lay outside the food room then we can both watch for things that get dropped, which may need licking up and I get to do it in comfort with my own centrally heated pillow, how good is that!

Must go now its time for my afternoon nap.

Lots of love  Becka Xxx



Another New Bed !!!

Hi Everybody,

Mummy had bought another new bed, it was supposed to be for Barney, but it was all just too new and squishy for me to resist.  Its a little bit small for me but as you can see, but, where there is a will there is a way! even if you do have to hang over the sides a bit.

He doesn't seem to object if I use his bed, actually he seems to prefer being on the carpet, or under the table, to being curled up in a nice comfy bed. 

Must be a boy thing, anyway I would give it up if he really wanted it and I have caught him in my bed in the past so its sort of fair, isn't it?  I've also just realised that from here he can see straight into the kitchen, which is were Mummy and Daddy go to make all the nice food, maybe he isn't as daft as I thought. Mmmmm I'll have to have a think about this, maybe the bed should be moved.

This was only a quick note whilst Mummy is out this morning but she may come back at any time so I have to put the laptop thing away now.

Write soon, love  Becka X



He's one today

Hello everybody,

Barney has his first birthday today, we had Freddie the terrorist over yesterday so they could play in the garden during the afternoon, they were both very tired by the time he went home.  Barney is one today, I'm four you know, very grown up!.  Mummy and Daddy said we are having a tea party tonight with jelly and special dogie cakes and if you look closely at the pictures below you can see that Mummy and Daddy got Barney a new collar for his birthday, very smart (even though it's not pink like mine)

Apparently, the collar is a Zebra print, whats a Zebra! is that like a black and white stripy dogie? anyway, Happy Birthday Barney, we are going to have a nice party tonight!  Lots of love Becka Xxx

Happy Birthday Daddy

Hello Everybody,

It was my Daddy's birthday on Saturday and Mummy took him to London to the theatre, the theatre is a bit like the haunted fish tank that sits in the corner of the room, but its real people and you have to watch it in a special room with lots of other people all together.  Not sure I can see the point but Mummy and Daddy like it.  Anyway while they were out Nat Nat and Greg came round to use the garden and yes Freddie the terrorist came too.

Now me and my henchman Barney like to bully Freddie a bit and he's generally game for a bit of rough and tumble, but it seems that finding his squeak twice is a bit over the top and we got told off.  Sorry Freddie from Barney and me we was only playing really.  Anyway I digress despite finding Freddies squeak, you remember how the cheeky little monster like to get into bed with me, well it seems that Barney is no longer prepared to be put off.  Have a look at these photographs that Daddy took on Sunday when were all relaxing after the afternoon Barbecue 

See the little fluff ball now thinks it's okay to climb in and make himself at home, to be honest I was too tired to argue, but it has got to stop.  I know that he uses my other bed but I'm not having him in this one, not too often anyway, he has his own bed right alongside

Must go now Daddy is due home soon and I've got to clear up the computer or he will know how I write this, happy birthday Daddy and can we have some more of those Malteaser chocolate things like we had on Sunday, they were nice.

Write soon, lots of love Becka  xXx
