Conehead

We had Eleanor spayed last Thursday morning after we got back from the beach. We figured she would be a drama queen about it, especially since her middle name is Drama. When we first brought her home she was a little out of it. She had her tail tucked between her legs and her back arched. By Friday, she seemed to be feeling a little better, and by Sunday she was pretty much back to normal. The vet told us to try to keep her from being too active, but Eleanor had different plans. We call her the lean mean fighting machine since she likes to start so many fights with Cleo. Anyway, here she is, Eleanor Drama the lean mean fighting machine weenie with her cone on. 

She gets her stitches out tomorrow evening, so she can get rid of the cone then. Cleo also has to get her yearly vaccinations tomorrow evening. That means I get to take both weenies to the vet tomorrow by myself!

Also, please notice how large Eleanor's cone is compared to her body. When we picked her up, they told us they had to give her a cone for a bigger dog because her nose is so long that the small dog cone would not prevent her from getting to her stitches. After one night, we decided that thing was way too huge, so I went back the next morning and got her the small dog cone. Her nose is a little longer than the cone, but not by much, so she can't really get to her stitches.  

Weenies in the Sunshine

This week I met a friend for lunch at South City Kitchen. On the walk over, I passed the Federal Reserve and noticed how pretty the grass and flowers were. When Ben got home from his trip yesterday, I told him I wanted to take the weenies over there this morning and take some pictures of them. It was so pretty! These are some of the pictures Ben took. 

Something must have smelled something good. 

Do we have weenies or rabbits?!

So Cute

Last Christmas, my MIL got Cleo a new tshirt. Unfortunately, Cleo's weener chest is a bit large for the shirt. Eleanor's, however, is not. Here is Eleanor in the super cute shirt!

Ready for the Rain

Cleo and Eleanor now have their own rain jackets. They have had them for a couple of weeks now, but taking pictures of both of them while in their rain jackets has proven to be slightly challenging. These are the best pictures we have been able to get of them. Enjoy!

Country Tooth

Eleanor has some jacked up teeth. This week we noticed that she has one tooth that seems to be between her two front teeth. This tooth sticks out and sometimes her lip catches on it, so we call it her country tooth. The first picture doesn't show it well, but I think it is funny. The second picture shows it better, but you can't really tell that it sticks out. It is really hard to get a picture of it, so these are the best we have gotten so far. 

Cleo got stuck

We have this drawer thing that goes under our bed. The weenies like to play in the drawer and sometimes sleep in the drawer because it has blankets and beach towels in it. This morning while I was getting ready for school, Cleo went under the bed to sleep in the drawer. After I finished getting ready, I went to the kitchen to eat breakfast. I heard Cleo make a noise, but it sounded like she was yawning, so I ignored it. Well, she kept on making that noise. I went over to pull the drawer out and this is what I found.  

She got stuck! They have chewed holes in the lining thing that covers the drawer and cleo got her head stuck in one. Y'all, I laughed so hard.  

Why do we have a dishwasher when we have Eleanor?

I added the third picture because it shows how big her ears are. 

Eleanor

Eleanor is growing up! She is the longest weenie I have ever seen. We don't have a picture of her all stretched, but we will take one soon and post it. Isn't she pretty?

A Day at the Grandparents

Ben's parents (grandma and grandpa Hudgins) have both been out of town a lot recently, so we haven't gotten to spend much time with them. So, we decided we would go out to their house and take the weenies for the day. We also had to do a clothing changeout, since they are nice enough to store our off-season clothing (along with lots of other stuff we don't have room for!). Anyway, they got to see their uncle Bailey, and most importantly, play with his toys. Here are a few pictures of Cleo and Eleanor playing with Bailey's toys. 

Cleo found this ball that stores treats and was obsessed with it, even though it was a large toy. Grandma Hudgins said Bailey did not like to play with it anymore, so she gave it to Cleo. 

They both played so hard! They had to sleep all the way home. Once we were home, they ate dinner and went right back to sleep. 

Cleo and Eleanor had so much fun and were so tired from all the playing! 

Laundry Services Available

Cleo needed an escape from the constant Eleanor attacks, so I picked her up while I was folding Ben's clothes. She LOVES laundry, especially Ben's shirts and underwear. I put her in the dryer with Ben's clothes. She is so cute!

Side note - I am watching American Idol from tonight, and is it just me, or does Paula look especially strung out tonight? Maybe that is why she has all that glitter around her eyes.

The time change did not go so well for the weenies this weekend. They did not want to go to bed an hour earlier. Instead, they stayed up for an extra couple of hours. Eleanor was especially bad, and we threatened taking her back to the mountains multiple times.

Cleo says she is available for laundry services, so just let her know. 

Video

This is a video of Cleo and Eleanor from several weeks ago. I have been meaning to post it, and then forget. I think it is pretty funny! I will have to take a new video soon. Enjoy!

It's 24 time!

Eleanor likes to watch tv, especially action tv. I think 24 is her new favorite. I can't blame it her, it is such a good show! I love it, but it also stresses me something serious. When I watch it, I usually sit on the edge of the couch and get all nervous, sometimes to the point where my hands are shaking! It really stresses me out, but I still love the show. 

Also, if Larry believes that guy that is the mole in the FBI, he should not be the director of the FBI! Nevermind, Larry just figured it out. Also, Chloe is awesome. 

This is a picture of Eleanor sitting in my lap watching the show. Technically, she is looking at me with the show on in the background because she would stop watching every time I got out the camera. 

i love my dogs!

seriously. i don't think they could be any cuter! These pictures are after a walk this week. 

oops!

Eleanor has recently decided she no longer likes to sleep all night. She prefers to wake up and play instead. This morning we got up and found a few holes in our comforter! I guess Eleanor decided to chew through it for some midnight entertainment.
