waiting...

ollie doesn't seem to like the lack of space on my lap these days...I'm not sure if he knows what's going on but I hope he'll be good w/the baby.

"just for me!"

I received a really cute quilt from my aunty for the baby, and she even included a little quilt just for Ollie!!! it's the cutest ever! Ollie is already making good use of his quilt. :)

yearly

Ollie went in for his yearly check up...he was a brave boy and took his booster shots like a champ!  while we were there we even saw a pet rat (yikes)! thank goodness Ollie's rat-hunting instincts didn't kick in!

Favorite spot

Ollie's favorite spot to bark at the fish. he could stay there all day!

Happy 4th of July (belated)

Introducing the frenemy

there he is, Ollie's frenemy, the brown Chihuahua...

Stalking his frenemy...

Ollie's favorite spot at his gramma & papa's house is at the window overlooking the neighbor's yard, where he can stalk his frenemy all day....

So peaceful

he looks like a little baby fox:

Lazy day

Ollie was not as enthused about my lazy day plans...

let's play mommy!

Sleepy Sunday's

Snug as a bug in a rug...

he really loves being in small spaces...

The bridge of Ollie

This is Ollie's "throw the fish food, mommy!" face:

Fresh out of the dryer

There's just something about clean laundry that dogs absolutely love...

"ollie go too!"

Ollie never likes it when he sees our luggage come out....

I really would like to take him on a staycation one of these days. I think he'd love it.

I'm going with you guys, right?

game of thrones fan

I think Ollie has been watching too much game of thrones. here he is saying he wants to be drogon with his two other dragon friends.

mommy, you can be the khaleesi!

throwback to easter

Ollie loves hunting for easter eggs. he's really good at cracking them open to get to his treat: 

gimme my treat you plastic eggie!

pinwheel pinwheel, spinning around...

Ollie's annual visit to the pinwheels at the state capitol! he had so much fun!

what are these fun shiny things?

can we stay all day?

the look of longing....

poor Ollie really wanted some strawberry, banana, nutella pancakes....

"this is cruel punishment mommy!"

Fishes

Ollie loves his fish friends!

ollie's new pillow

did I mention on this blog that I'm pregnant? well, if not, surprise! I'm pregnant.  I have went out and purchased a pregnancy pillow (bump nest) and Ollie has since commandeered it as his own pillow:

this is for me, right mommy?

so comfy

omg, it's like a little hammock!

I love my pillow

Fluffy

I love Ollie's post-bath fluffiness!  he always looks like a little shiny puff ball.

can I have a treat now?

Happy star wars day!

{a post by ollie} my birthday

hi everybody! ollie here! i had the best birthday this year and now mommy is letting me take over the blog to tell you guys all about it!!!

first i woke up,  and my mommy and daddy both wished me happy birthday and i got a great breakfast of dog food, chicken & cheese! yum!

then because i had to share my day with something called the super bowl (i think it's like the puppy bowl, but with hoomans),  i had a little super bowl fun:

i'll go with these guys...

i was wrong, but that's ok.  it was still fun to pick!  after that, i opened my presents:

what is it? what is it?

omigosh it's making noise!

i got me a new bag and new shirt, and a toy cake! the cake even sings happy birthday to me! i loved it!  after that,  my mommy was baking something in the kitchen while i took a little birthday nap. then it was time to go to my grandma and papa's house! i was so excited! i got to play outside:

i love the outdoors!

barking at my fishy friends

it is I, sir ollie pollie!

and then i noticed mommy had disappeared, so i went inside to check what mommy was doing:

whatcha doing in there mommy?

i love my mommy!

ooh, pup-cakes for me!

she was baking again, but this time it was for me she said! i was excited!  it was my very own pup-cake in a portion that was small like me! it was so yummy i gobbled it up right away!

must.eat.now.

i'm so excited!

I played outside for awhile longer and i went on TWO walkies! grandma took me on a walkies, and mommy took me on one too! i felt so special! walkies are one of my favorite activities!

then i went inside to open my presents:

i love opening presents!

grandma got me two different types of breath freshening treats.  i think she's trying to tell me something...and i did have to have a bath...but i didn't mind because i always get told how handsome i am after i bocha :P
then after my bath i went to my other papa and grandma's house.  i got to eat sweet potato and they bought me my very own cake!

for me?!?!

when they took the cake away to get cut up, i couldn't take my eyes off of it:

hey guys, where you going with my cake?!?

this was a people-cake so i'm only allowed very tiny nibbles, but i still love it all the same!
i feel so special and loved! i had the best birthday ever!

F-I-V-E

ollie is FIVE years old today! that makes him older than me in dog years, and that makes me so incredibly sad. lol.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLLIE POLLIE!!!

ollie + his presents

he loves his cake toy!
