A Dose of Deedee at 11 Weeks Old

Deedee is 11 weeks old today, and would like to share her insights from the past week with you.
Deedee's insights:

1.  My most notable accomplishment is that I now know what is meant by "Wait."  I don't even have to be told (but Kristi says it every time anyway!).  Before every meal, I try to ignore the bowl of food.  I've learned that's the fastest way to get to eat!



2.  In the evenings, sometimes Kristi and John sit down and direct their attention to the screen on the wall.  I must admit, it is quite interesting!  Sometimes, I even forget about my toys and get distracted by what's happening on the wall.


3.  Kristi still won't let me enjoy her shoelaces.  She doesn't seem to realize that I must always have something in my mouth, and her shoelaces are better than any toy! Well, that might be a stretch--she does seem to know that I always have something in my mouth.  It's some sort of superpower she has.  I mean, really, can you tell that I had a rock in my mouth in this photo?  


Kristi knew, and she made me spit it out. 

She seems to think I will outgrow this phase.  Something about teething and puppy teeth falling out. I'm not sure I like the sound of that!

Kristi says that I get to go to the vet for a shot next week.  I'm not exactly sure what that means, but it sounds exciting!

Stay tuned for another Dose of Deedee!  Wait. . . wait. . .

  1. Love the Deedee updates! What huge paws she has. I'll bet she'll be a big lady when she's all grown up. I love her sweet face and feeling a bit jealous.... would love to have a sweet doggie like her. Give her a smootch for me, will you?!

    1. I think she will be big. The puppy truck always brings me big dogs. :-) (Willow was small, but she came to be as an older puppy--I didn't pick her up off the puppy truck.)

    1. Looking forward to the teething thing being behind us, but she is a quick learner. :-)

  4. The Deedee insights are interesting. I've never raised a puppy, but it sounds like things are going really well.

    1. Puppies grow up so quickly, that even the annoyances (like chewing on everything) end soon. Deedee is a good puppy, and I think will make a great guide dog.

  5. I can't get enough Deedee face! Our foster pups liked flip flops. No matter how sure you were they were out of her reach, here she'd come, dragging a flip flop. Both of them liked to chew on rocks and sticks. And table legs. And the brick around the fireplace. And, and, and... :)

  6. Oh, that cute, "I'm innocent" look she has on her face as she smiles around her rock. :-)

  7. I love Deedee's stories! And of course Deedee is just so darned cute! How could you not love that face?!

Ten Things of Thankful: Autumn Edition

It's autumn time, one of my favorite times of year.  I just couldn't leave this weekend as a one-post weekend.  

Ten Things of Thankful: Last Two Weeks

  Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park, as viewed from an overlook I apologize for not commenting on your blog posts this past week; John and I took a vacation to Yellowstone National Park, leaving behind our computers and, to a large extent, cell phone service. We escaped the outside world and just spent time in nature. Though we have friends near Yellowstone (who we love to visit) we made this trip just about us, so please forgive us if we were nearby and didn't stop by. The crowds were minimal (though we did mask up whenever we passed someone on the trails) and we spent our days hiking, taking photos, and watching geysers erupt. Today, we are back home and back to work, and, in the case of my computer, back to old shenanigans like not letting me import my photos. (I was able to add the above photo by using blogger on my phone, but that isn't my preferred method.) I want to write about Yellowstone and have photos I want to share, but will leave that for another

Monday Mentions: Equate Crutches

Have you ever needed crutches? I hadn't, until a week ago.  I'm pretty sure I strained a muscle while running a half-marathon.  (That sounds kind of cool, doesn't it? I'm not actually that cool; the last time I strained a muscle it was from carrying too many shopping bags at once.) In any case, I found myself in need of some crutches. I sent my husband to the store to get some. Photo: A pair of crutches leans against a wall  Not that crutches are all that complex, but because I hadn't used any before, I wondered if I could figure out how to adjust them to fit me properly. I shouldn't have worried. John came home from Walmart with their generic store brand of crutches, complete with instructions. First, I needed to take out a long bolt that went through the hand grip. Then I needed to find my height range, push down two metal pieces, and slide the crutches until the little metal pieces came up in the hole near my height range. (Having two people for this
