More Sickies!? What a week it has been. Its only Wednesday!?!

Yeah, I know. I haven't been very active on here the past week or so. But, not only did Sissy get sick this past week. Mommy got sick Monday. And she got that nasty H1N1 Swine Flu stuff. MAN! Did that take a toll on her. But, just as I did with Sissy, I've been by her side being her cuddle buddy all week. The rest of the family has kept their distance. So I'm sure she is enjoying my company.

So, here is where I've been the past few days. Hopefully she gets better quickly!

Atleast the kids are here to play. They decided to make a fort for themselves. I took it over. Lol

Sissy is sick! :( What do we do?

So what do us dogs do when our loved ones aren't feeling good? We snuggle with them!

My momma is jealous cuz she don't get to snuggle like we do. Sorry!!!

Feel better soon Sissy.

OMG! I just ripped out someones tooth! Minnie's Misadventures #2

Its a cool January evening (notice I say cool. This California weather is crazy. It was probably like 60). Anyhow, we're in the living room and in walks Ace. Ace, our extremely active, athletic 8 year old boy in the family and he has a couple loose front teeth.  One being VERY loose. Looks like they're gonna try and yank it out. This should be interesting....

So Ace and Dad grab one of those R/C Helicopters (you know, the one that really stings your nose when you try and sniff its rear). Anyway. Mom heads out the room and returns with this really stinky stuff. It was like a string. I think they called it "floss". It really caught my attention though. Wow was it strong.

So there I was, laying on the couch watching Ace getting this string tied to something in his mouth. Then they tied it to the helicopter (did I mention I don't like those things?). Dad grabbed the remote, and the helicopter shot into the sky, then came crashing back down in a hurry. I rolled my eyes and looked at Mom. Who is recording this silliness. They tried a second time. Here, you have to watch this to believe it:

I think they needed more power. Argh, argh argh!

Then, they came up with this brilliant idea to make ME pull it out. Really? ME?! I've got better things to do. I was comfy resting on the couch minding my own business. After all, I just was outside in this frigid (hah!) weather chasing a Blue Jay out of the yard. Don't they care about my rest? I guess not. Dad cut the string from the helicopter and grabbed my favorite toy. A big old hard plastic Daffy Duck! That caught my eye. Off I ran over to him play. I just can't resist that toy.

Dad then ties that smelly string to my collar. I didn't quite understand why at the time (that leash isnt going to hold me), I was focused on my duck. He tossed my duck in the other room and off I went. I couldn't get it fast enough. Everyone was cheering me on too! I came back in the room, and then realized the cheers weren't quite for me. They were for Ace. I guess we got that tooth out after all! See for yourself! The reaction on his face was priceless!

This is a different video than above. Even though it has the same initial screen.
