Don't look back. Someone might be gaining on you.

Here I am at a pug picnic. Licking my chops and walking around. It was a fun day!

Today is my birthday

I am nine. Sleeping most of the day. Here is a picture of Fu Manchu.

Ebert and Wong

Mr. Wong has seen the movie Garfield: a Tale of Two Kitties. He gives it 2 paws up and he didn't even have any popcorn. Mr. Wong even liked the preview, it was for Ice Age, so mom might have to borrow that for him. We other guys don't like to sit through movies, we just want to get our paws on the remote and see what else is on and some people find that annoying so we stayed on our blanket in the kitchen during the screening. AND we got vanilla wafers which Mr. Wong didn't get.
Here is something funny about Fu Manchu: he likes to sit on top of the vacuum cleaner. When it is off of course!

Early Thanksgiving

Mom cleaned me up, which was not so bad because I knew I was going to Aint Van and Uncle Dick's. My step-grandcousins were there and they requested more pugs so Mom went home to get Mr. Wong but Fu Manchu stayed home. The guys cuddled up in our cuddle bed with us and played with us and took us out. We pugs got to sit on everyone's lap and/or tummy or feet. We don't eat human food, but the humans did. If Mommy knew how to use a camera, out pictures would be on here. Whew. Still tired.

You know you've really made it when...

Our whole family was invited to a Christmas (or whatever) party already. I or Mr. Wong will be in FLORIDA. So we can't go. I went to Florida already, did everyone know that? Mom was a little afraid the alligator would zoom up out of the lake to have me as a tasty snack, so I didn't get to explore as much as I wanted, but it was ok. She is right, I can't run very fast.

Here's a picture of me and mom at a bonfire party. I am eyeing a plate of brownies on the table. Did not get to sample them, though, I am not allowed chocolate. Luckily there are plenty of other things in the world to eat.
OK, back to my nap.

Who will take our picture?

Mom had to go clean Daddy's house. Yuk. Mom is home again. Reminds me of the line from Rear Window which somehow I have heard about 20 times. Perhaps he likes the way his wife welcomes him home. Mom gets lots of kisses from us 3 guys when she comes home from a trip in the fun box with wheels! (I went to Florida with Mommy once in a blue fun box with wheels. Daddy stayed home, haha. I explored my grandmother's house to make sure it was safe for everybody, went to antique shows, met a cool guy dog named Spike, and gave lots of kisses to all the mommies. This year I think Mr. Wong is going to get to go, oh, well he is the baby.)
