Mr. Charmer!

This past weekend, Kellen had a WONDERFUL couple nights of sleep! And when I mean wonderful, I mean that this meant I got some much needed, continuous, full cycle REM sleep!

On Friday and Sunday he slept THROUGH the night, yes from 9pm-6:30am! I don't think Mom slept well on Friday because she was worried something was wrong so she kept checking on him! I was sure to tell her "Mom, enjoy these moments...do not make a peep!"

 

Since he was able to enjoy my kind of sleeping schedule, he was able to charm us all!

I know, isn't he SOOOO darn cute?!

(And getting big?!)

 

And Mom worried he wouldn't be a happy baby..psh! ;)

I tried!

Last night Kellen was being a little fussy, so I thought I would try to help Mom and Dad out by providing him a few things to help calm him down...

You'd think a ball, Grizz and Baby would calm him down...they always make me feel good!

But I guess that's not what he needed.  What he needed was...

...his Daddy!!

"Kellen, I want you to know that I am definitely a Daddy's Girl so I completely understand and "get it" that sometimes you just need your Dad to help calm you down"

 

And my parents think I have a hard time sharing sometimes! :)

I'm a DOG!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and has been enjoying all the Hallmark and ABC Family movies like we have!
 

We are definitely in the Holiday Spirit here at the WiederInn...get it?! ;)

However, Mom got a little camera happy and thought it would be a good idea to play a little Holiday dress up with me!

 You see, I love Christmas, but I'm really not a fan of this "dress-up" thing!

 They say a picture is worth a thousand words...

I think my facial expressions (or lack there of) says it all...

"Really Mom!?" 

Oh, but it didn't stop there, oh no!

She then found a SANTA hat...imagine it now...

 Yep, my facial expressions didn't change much!

"Mom, shouldn't we get back to that Hallmark movie we were watching"

 

I really do think my parents don't know I'm a dog! :)

Duties as a Big Sister!

As a Big Sister, I have certain responsibilities that I need to carry out!

Right now it's pretty easy as my key responsibility is to make sure Kellen doesn't go anywhere! I've heard my duties will only get harder once he gets bigger and starts crawling!

I say, "Bring It On!"

 Now I know I haven't been a big sister for long, but I'm pretty sure Kellen did not like being in this little buggy my Grandma had! I think that high pitch noise he's making is an indication of discontent!

But being the big sister that I am, I just stayed there until Mom relieved me of my duty!

 "Mom, I made sure Kellen was safely buckled in his seat so he doesn't wiggle out! I do think he would stop crying if we played Who Let the Dogs Out"

I am also used as a soft fluffy pillow!! I made sure I stayed real still so Kellen wouldn't fall over!

When I see Mom and Dad snuggle with Kellen, I make sure I join in on the action!!

"Mom and Dad, you can go rest! I'll make sure Kellen can't get out!"

 

I love being a big sister!

Esther the Puppy!

As mentioned in my Bio, I came from a very loving family! In fact, Mom still keeps in contact with them and sends them updates! Mom even told me she follows my blog, so I'm still able to make her smile! :)

 

Well about 2 weeks ago, I received a package from them!! They sent me a new dog bed!!

It's so cozy!  

It didn't take me long to take a nap on it! I had the best dreams!

Within the package, there was an itty bitty frame wrapped up in bubble wrap! You all know me, I love surprises and gifts, so I was so anxious to see what it was!

When we finally got it open, I was speechless.. (and Mom & Dad too!)

She had sent us a picture of me as a PUPPY!!!! YES, that is me in that frame! I know, it's almost too cute to be in a frame! I must say though, I age REALLY well!

 

Since I know my previous owners are reading this, THANK YOU!

Many Faces of Kellen

Ok, since the last 4 posts have been all about me, I figured I should make one all about Kellen!

Kellen seems to have many different facial expressions.  They seem to all express something different every time! I think I've figured out one of them...it comes with a smell too!! 

 

The "Yeah I know I'm a Stud Muffin" look!

 

 Believe it or not, there was a 2 week different between the two pictures above! I know, they grow up so quickly!

 

The "ANOTHER picture?!" look!

 You may not want to hear it Kellen, but Mom and Dad are obsessed with taking pictures! Just keep your hand by your face and you'll be ok!

 

The "Ohh Boy I'm tired" look!

I hear ya buddy ol' pal!

 

The "Ohhh yeah" look!

 I would have never thought in my wildest dreams, that Kellen could poop a ball out! ;)

 

The "An Angel Just Kissed Me" look!

 

 And last but not least....

 

The "Here We Go Again" look!

For the about the first 2 weeks, at 7pm on the dot, Kellen would give us this look and it would last for about 3ish hours! I am happy to report it has gotten a lot better! Kellen is now able to be awake and content for a period of time! Phew!!!

He still has his spells occasionally and sometimes they are during the day, but hopefully he will give us a Christmas to Remember! :)

 

Whether it's his yawns, stretches, smiles, or cries; Mommy, Daddy and I love every inch of him!!

 

They grow up way too fast!
