Best Days Ever Again!

I know I haven't posted here in almost a year, but what a year it has been!

My little brother was born last December, and it's been a lot of work keeping up with two little siblings.

My little sister is almost two years old, and my little brother will be one before I know it!

It's safe to say my life is the best it has ever been, and it's only going to get better.

As a four year old, I have lots of wisdom to share, and I take my big sister responsibilities very seriously.

I make sure to give my brother and sister lots of kisses, and I'm teaching my little sister how to throw the ball and play tug. She still needs some practice, but I'm...reasonably...patient. :)

I'm not expecting to post here again for a while. However, I will be posting on my Facebook page.

This Special Season

Lately I've started going to a dog park near my new house. It's the best: big shady trees, a sloping hill and giant rocks, even some agility equipment where I can show of my skills...

(Or I could anyway, if I ever had any agility practice...)

In my family, Fall is our favorite season. We get out more, because the weather is a little bit cooler, but still not too cold for my baby sister. Plus, we all look really beautiful against a backdrop of autumn leaves!

I'm enjoying the dog park extra this Fall, because Momma says there's another little sibling coming my way - a boy this time, due just after Christmas. I know it's going to mean that we can't go out together for a little while, but I'm not worried. My sister and I have finally found a game which we both know how to play (mostly she pretends to crawl towards me and I run around like a crazy pup!), and I think she's trying to learn to fetch. Being a big sister is seriously tough, but I'm such a professional, I'm sure I can handle another babe to care for!

What's your favorite way to enjoy this beautiful, breezy, golden and sweet season?

Happy Birthday To Me!

I'm three today!!!!

And I'm having a great birthday. I got presents, hung out with my friends at school, and, most importantly, I finished my dinner and had the puppy version of birthday cake - a great big cookie!

Since I'm famous, I also made sure to let the adoring public know about my birthday. I was Instagrammed and Facebooked of course. Then I got all sorts of love from Corgi nation when I was posted on The Daily Corgi's Facebook page:

Post by The Daily Corgi.

You should check out the comments - people are saying the nicest things, like

"Happy Barkday!"
"Corgi Rock Star - wishing a very pawsome 3rd birthday!"
and my personal favorite...
"You are a Corgi through and through with your mind on the cookies and the cookies on your mind!"

It's only natural that I would have a fan club, since I am a beautiful Corgi, right? I appreciate my friends at The Daily Corgi letting everyone know about my big day!

Do you follow The Daily Corgi? You probably should, especially if you don't have four-leggeds around to make your home more hilarious. The Daily Corgi posts stuff that's sure to make you smile, like for example Corgi Valentines, and very important news coverage on topics such as the Royal Corgis. And, of course, rescues. Who doesn't love a good rescue story, saving both puppies' and people's lives daily?!

Fluffy butts :)

Now, I must be going. The very last item on my birthday to-do list is to snuggle my fluffy butt up to my family and listen to them say how much they love me over and over and over again. Happy birthday to me!!!

Happy Halloween!

As you know, I love Halloween - in the past I've even won costume contests. But as far as I knew up until this year trick-or-treat was basically just a myth. We never had many people come to our house for candy. It probably didn't help that in the past two years we've had October snow and a hurricane.

But this year!

waiting for tricks-or-treats

Oh, this year!!

This year on Halloween we learned something great about the street we now live on - everyone trick-or-treats here! It's like they come from all over town to knock on my door!

We had so many trick-or-treat-ers that we even ran out of candy. The street sounded like a block party and the cars just kept coming. It was easily my favorite night of the year, since meeting brand new people is one of my most favorite activities. Plus, most of them were just my size!

I sat outside with my family for a long time giving candy to all of the cutest kids in costume. Mostly they loved me, and even those who were afraid I was able to win over with a sweet look and a tail wag. I'm a very charming dog, you know!

I hope you had fun on Halloween, too!

New Rules

My little sister is here!!!!!!!!!!

She's almost two weeks old, and already my family has been enjoying our newest member so much.

Unfortunately, I can't post a picture of my little sister where you can see her face, because my parents are working hard to protect her privacy as someone so new in the world. But don't worry, I'll be posting a lot about our adventures together without breaking the new security rules.

I'm finding that with little siblings come a lot of new rules. I learned right away that I can give my little sister kisses, but not too many and not on her belly. I've learned to mind the stroller when we walk together. I also learned in our first crazy nights together that I can protect my little sister, but I don't actually have to fret over her every time she makes a noise. In fact, I'm so used to the new routine already that now I don't even wake up every time my little sister cries at night, because I know Momma and Dadda will take care of it. Besides, a girl like me needs her beauty rest...

I'm still working on our new strict rules about barking in the house. I've already improved greatly when it comes to having visitors here. It helped that my friend Kim brought me some gifts when she came to see the baby. Let's not forget that I still live here and am very special, too!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to playtime with Dad. I can't get playtime whenever I want it anymore - have to work it all around the baby's schedule - but it's worth it. My little sister and I are definitely going to be best friends!

Best Day Ever...Again.

I don't have a little sister, yet, but that's okay, because I've been making the most of every day I have left as the only baby girl in my family!

This weekend was an especially great one. Momma and Dadda were working around the house a lot of the weekend, getting ready for my little sister, since she is supposed to be born any day now... So, I got to spend a lot of time with them.

And even though they went to the botanical gardens on Sunday morning, I was okay with it, because I needed some nap times...and, we went to the dog park in the afternoon!

Even with our new camera, it is really hard to get a clear shot of me while I'm playing soccer...because I'm SO FAST!

But I did stop for a few moments so Momma could get a nice picture of my beautiful face...I definitely didn't stop because I was tired...

I'm also making use of the pool for as many days as I can. It's already getting a little cool outside, but I'm not ready to give up the pool quite yet!

Even though summer is coming to a close, I'm still making new friends, as well!

My favorite thing to do, though, is just to relax next to my Momma and Dadda. I know that our new adventure with my little sister will be full of all kinds of changes, but as long as I have my parents, I know it will be great.

Plus, I just know my little sister and I are going to be best friends.
