The Joys of Being a Dog Lady

Has a dog ever pooped on your head? For me, the answer was no... up until today that is.

Yep Chloe decided my head would be a great spot to pop a squat and take a dump.

How in the world did she poop on my head you may ask?

Well, I was laying on my stomach, on the couch and Chloe  hopped up to lay on my back...or so I thought. I didnt think anything of it, especially since she IS potty trained. She rings a little bell by the door to let us know she has to go outside.

Anyway... I realize Chloe had been standing on my upper back for awhile and I could feel her shaking, so I lifted up to look back at her and a little poop turd rolled off my back and down my arm! It was all in my hair and smeared down my back! It wasn't solid poop either it was slimey!

Of course, I began dry heaving. In between my dry heaves, I ran around like a crazy person, stripping off my clothes as fast as I could and yelling at Chloe all at the same time. It was GROSS! Lets just say she is in the dog house with me tonight.

I could shift the blame onto Conrad, who fed her pepperoni the night before. This may have made her stomach upset, and caused her to have a sudden poop attack on my head. That's the only reason I can think of as to why she would poop on ME! Anyway, Conrad is not the one who pooped on me, so I still blame the hound.

Right now our future is so completely up in the air right now.

Conrad graduates next month and he takes the bar exam in July.

After that, I have no idea where we will be or what we are doing and that freaks me out a little...maybe a lot. 

I just have to remember Gordon B. Hinckley's words and know that, "Everything will work out."
I might need to plaster that quote all over my apartment as a constant reminder.

Lately, I have had no motivation to blog.  Its no longer new and exciting for me. 

Instagram has become the new and exciting thing.

I'm pretty new to it.
I have to refrain myself from posting every picture I take with my phone... Especially since most of them are of my dog.

Since when did I become the crazy overly obsessed dog lady?
The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem right?

Life has been pretty darn good and Instagram has been a great way to compile and share our fun moments...      
until the next new and exciting thing comes along of course :)

Valentines and Dogs

Last week we became foster parents to a little black Chihuahua, Ciara.

Chloe was very jealous of any attention we gave to her at first but they are starting to become good friends. They are both needy clingy dogs who love to cuddle. Good thing they are cute.

We had a good Valentines weekend.Conrad got me Sees candy, and he didnt know it...but he got me some new shoes too ;). We went out to dinner to my favorite pizza place and I made some delicious sugar cookies for dessert.

I recently found out that my Aunt and Uncle Winslow and Kristen adopted another sweet little boy, Maximus Evan Johnson. I can't wait to meet my new little cousin!

Life is great. Conrad has been super busy with school, its his l a s t semester! Woohoo!

I Hope everyone had a great Valentines and Presidents Day!

This is Halloween

We had a fun filled Halloween weekend.
On Friday, we had a Halloween/ Troll 2 party with our friends.
We each brought an appetizer and fun Halloween dessert.
There were so many cute ideas on Pinterest for Halloween desserts so I decided to make a few of them.
Forked eyeballs anyone?

We watched Troll 2... The best WORST movie ever. It's SO unbelievably bad that it's good... sort of.
It's about a family who visits the small town of Nilbog (Goblin spelled backwards) and vegetarian goblins try to turn them into plants so they can eat them...Need I say more?
Just watch it and you will know what I mean.
I warn you it is slightly painful to get through but for some reason it is so funny to talk about afterward.

On Saturday, we went to our wards Halloween Trunk-or-Treat party.
This is the first year we dressed up.
Where's Waldo and Wenda?

We have now become one of "those" people who dress our dog up for halloween.
Maybe a sign we need a baby?
Last year I laughed at the idea of dressing Chloe up but I just could not resist putting my wiener dog in a hot dog costume.
She was a hit with all the little kids at the Trunk-or-Treat.
Everyone wanted to pet the wiener dog hot dog.

Happy Halloween!

Croc-A-Dach

Chloe has one tooth that always pokes out of her mouth it looks so funny. It usually happens when she is sleeping. When we first noticed it Conrad gave her the nick name croc-a-dach (Crocodile teeth and a dachshund face) shortened to crocky.

This Little Hound

This little hound got spayed yesterday. They put a cone around her head so she wouldn't lick the stitches. They had to give her a big one because her nose is so long. I just had to take pictures of how funny she looked, she couldn't even walk forward in it. I could not stop laughing.

This is my favorite one, she was so groggy from the medication.
