Charly

Meet Charly. I know I was supposed to post this back in the day (around September) but we have been really busy.

Words to describe Charly:
1. paper shredder
2. popsicle stick shredder
3. lysol sniffer
4. speed racer
5. stuffed animal "de-stuffing" machine
6. cuddle bunny
7. potentially calm puppy at night
8. traveling poop express (WILL BLOG LATER)
9. Livvy's rag doll
10. Emma's rag doll
11. random sound maker
12. Chloe's "hot potatoe"

Charly is so much fun! You would think dogs are just smelly and gross.... yes they have their moments, but it is all on how you take care of them. See I dont like smelly dogs..... I dont like dog slobber. Charly, is very well groomed (thank you very much!). She is not your typical pomeranian. She has spunk. I think she thinks she is human...

Here are some photos of Charly:

She loves to inspect our household chemicals-- making sure they are safe.


Play mode.



"Wet Willy" mode.



Oh my cute dog!

Like "father" like "dog"

I honestly think that Charly is a great blessing to me and Mark. It sounds so STUPID.... How could a dog POSSIBLY bless someone's life? Well, if you haven't noticed... last year was slightly difficult- in more than 10 ways. This year (2009) hasn't lacked on the difficult side by any means.. Charly has been our smile maker. She has such personality. When I was working, I would come home and Charly would get so excited to see me. Mark doesn't even get that excited! JK. She gets that way when Mark gets home too. When we are frustrated, she will get into snuggle mode, and if you give her a little attention, she will go straight into play mode. After you start playing with her, you forget what was bothering you. We love Charly SO much!
