Did I Mention We're Parents!?!

Dog parents that is! On June 4th 2009 Michael and I became the proud parents of Odie and Marty Hass...ok, ok so they're Chihuahuas but we sure do treat them like our children! My mom is quite possibly the best dog mom in the whole world so I have some pretty big shoes to fill but luckily she taught me well! Although we got them from the same breeder they are from two different litters and Odie is two weeks older than Marty. Michael and I joke about getting them from a doggy whore house because there were three dads and one mom... you do the math. The owner told us "Uncle Charlie" a googley-eyed, stubby legged, overweight chihuahua couldn't possibly be the father because he's been shootin' blanks (technical term: sterile). However, Marty seems to have acquired his googley eyes and slow-to-go learning ability so perhaps Ol' Charlie has a few good swimmers left in him? Either way, Marty is to die for cute and the biggest love bug so we are very grateful for his parents...whoever they may be. Our boys are so much fun and Michael and I are thrilled to have them as part of our tiny, little family!

First trip to the vet! Though this picture is super cute the truth is they were playing possum to avoid the dreaded rectal temp!
