Puppy

Took over a hundred pictures of my mom's new puppy today.

Mocha is thrilled.

Eloise was pretty offended when Murphy untied her sneakers. She's not so sure what she thinks of puppies.

Eloise's worst day

On a message board I read there's a weekly photo challenge. This week's was "lines" and I thought of how Eloise likes to stand outside and grin at me through the railing in the entry area. So I got her all ready, and even combed her hair, and she stood there and pouted. She wanted to go for a walk. Then I further ruined her day by taking her for a short walk but just around the neighborhood and without the stroller.

"I said I wanted to go for a walk, I didn't say I wanted you to make me walk myself!"

AND after all that, I wouldn't let her bring the sidewalk chalk outside because it was raining and it's too wet to draw. Worst. Day. Ever.
