Ok now I feel a little guilty

My mom commented on how there weren't any pics of the kid (oldest kid didnt' join us for camping...we weren't as cool as spending a week at a college) So here are some pics of Kenna!

Taken on our dinner cruise on the St. LawrenceThis is how Kenna spent most of our vacation...jumping off a big rock!



Another first

Whats camping without campfires? Piper was usually asleep by the time the campfires were started but she was still there, being passed around from lap to lap. Or in Kennas case, from shirt to lap ;)

Mmm, cozy!

I feel so, so, VIOLATED!!!!

Piper has new friends!

As I mentioned Piper had a blast at camping. While she was there she met a few new pals and got to play everyday. I think shes actually a little lonely now that she just has us and the kitties (who do NOT want to play with her ;) Meet Julius & Joey!

Joey and Piper playing (really, they are!!)

Julius & Piper after Julius took a dip in the River

What happens when you put 3 dogs on leashes in a small area ;)

The family is back from camping and we had a great time. Piper made some new friends and I think she might be a bit lonely now that she doesn't have anyone to play with but us. Here are a few pics to get you started back on our daily blog!


So when are we goin home?

This blog is goin on VACATION!

Yeah I know, i'm gonna hear about it but we're goin on vacation. Starting tomorrow the blog will be silent for a week, unless of course our campsite has wi-fi!! LOL We're heading to the 1000 Islands in Upstate NY for the week. Its Pipers first camping trip so it should be interesting.

Piper had another vet visit today for a booster shot, in just 1 week we shot up over 5lbs!! Shes not 5.4... the little piggy. She had quite the good time in the waiting room playing with an elderly Boston Terrier and a Jack Russel, shes currenly passed out downstairs.

See you in a week with lots of pics!

I have claimed it, it is MINE

See the pink pillow below? Piper has claimed it as hers. It was on the couch (which she isn't big enough to jump up on yet) but she grabbed the tag on the side and pulled it off the couch onto the floor to sleep on. She loves it, maybe because its perfect for her size...but shes been sleeping on it for the past day or so in the middle of the floor...


What? No one was using it anyways!


Ahhh this one is JUUUUSSSST right :)

The perfect puppy portrait

I submitted a few pics of our girl to The Daily Puppy for their consideration. Its a site that features 1 puppy a day in all their cuteness. And you KNOW Piper qualifies. Unfortunately I sent them pictures with people in them and that is a no no, so I was out in the backyard today (MAN IS IT HOT!) trying to get a few good shots of her to submit. Here is her perfect puppy portrait : )

Yes i'm adorable :)

Oh stop, I couldn't possibly pose for another!

Ok, 1 goofy pose and thats IT!

Piper's Pool Party!

Last Thursday we took a trip up to Buffalo to visit Piper's Godmommy Lizzie. Piper got to meet a bunch of new friends. She was very interested in the pool that Lizzie had. She got lots of cuddles and hugs and was pretty tired out as you will see in the following pics.


btw, Johnna doesn't like this pic AT ALL!!! oh well ;)

Awesome Cuteness

Ok we've discovered shes gotten a little bigger. Maybe its because the vet said she now weights 4.8lbs. She's still the cutest thing in the world! And here is a picture to prove it!!!!

Pipers Vet Appt

Piper had her first Vet appt today since she's been with us. Shes now up to date with her rabies vaccine and I believe distemper. She is quite the yiper when it comes to getting her shots. Poor Makenna plugged her ears :( Piper carried on for a good 30 seconds of yipes. The vets all loved her. She continues to be the Belle of the Ball wherever she goes. Shes been pretty tuckered out from her ordeal today, sleeping alot and her right shoulder is tender from her shot...my poor baby :(

Those other kids

Yeah I do have other children that only have 2 legs. I do take pictures of them occassionally (with Piper of course ;)

This is Johnna with Piper tucked into her hoody pocket (a la marsupial)


I failed to mention during our 4th of July weekend that Piper got to see her first Fireworks...she was NOT impressed. She spent the entire time shaking and cowering in the nape of my neck, which by the way is her favorite place to cuddle.

Happy 4th of July

Ooooh where to start! We've had a busy 4th of July weekend. Lots of stuff to do, places to go things to see. I don't know where to start... so i'll just jump right in!

We've been a few places this weekend. Gramma & Grampa Hoglunds, The Agnoli's. Piper has gone everywhere with us. She travels in style, usually on someones lap and then makes herself right at home.The above image is Piper in Makennas chair. Fortunately for Piper the chair is getting too small for Kenna. Shes it and fell asleep in it a few times yesterday.


I'm ready for my close-up!

Piper's Best Friend

Piper has a buddy. Shes a beagle mix that lives next door named Snickers.

Everytime they're out together, Snickers will sit and whine until I bring Piper over to play. They roll around, bounce and have a jolly ol' time.Look i'm VICIOUS!!!


Snickers has a brother named Scooter, unfortunately he's old and grumpy and wants to eat Piper!

SUPER PUPPY!



Piper has gotten quite adventurous lately. She'll leap off the couch the chair, just about anything (except the bed which is quite high) We like to call her super puppy because her paws go WAAAAAY out!)

Of all the toys I have...

I love my cup the most. Ok so you know she has toys right? Just about everytime we go somewhere, Piper gets a new toy. She has chewies, a lamby, an ellie, some balls and a few bones here and there
Recently she found her most favorite toy of all though, is it store bought? OF COURSE NOT! Its a cup, it used to have Mini-Oreos or Teddy Grahams in it. For some reason Kenna kept it and now its Pipers. Actually there was 2, one has since met its maker. Yeah its probably not the best for puppies, but she loves it, it rolls, she can pick it up, its her best friend.
