Henry sleeps in the oddest positions. I have always found that he twists and turns himself until he manages to have his head hanging down so that all the blood can rush to it. He has been this way since he was a pup and personally, I don’t see how this could be comfortable.

When you put yourself in positions like this Hank, you make your mother have to crawl around on the floor to get a cute picture of your handsome face. You know, something with a little better angle so that you don’t look completely depressed.

I am flying up to Maryland this evening for a little bit of business and to see my Dad this father’s day weekend. It was very nice of the pugs to wish me well!

Benny is a creature of habit. One of the things he does every morning is pull up a chair at the breakfast table. Every morning, without fail, when I am getting breakfast ready, he hops up into his chair and makes himself comfortable. What always cracks me up is how he sits on the chair. One leg always hangs through the back of the chair and as he relaxes his tail always uncurls and hangs down as well.

Once he has settled, Benjamin has a clear view of all the food on the table. He watches everything we eat and sometimes he rests his head on the glass if we are eating foods he knows he doesn’t get. But, if a banana is cracked open, Benny perks up and waits for his share.

After breakfast is finished, Benjamin inevitably succumbs to his sleepiness and sprawls out on the chair.

For this week’s Caption This, we have Henry perched atop his boogie board. Looking forward to your captions in the comments!

Awhile back I posted a few pictures of the Mimosa tree that we planted in the backyard. Since we planted the tiny tree it has really hit a growth spurt. We couldn’t be more pleased! Here are a few more pictures of the tiny tree so that you can see how it has grown.


I admit, right now it kinda looks like a big weed in the yard, but it is starting to develop a trunk and pretty soon it will look more like a tree. I can’t wait until little Mimo gets bigger and gives us some shade in the yard.

Lately, I have been feeling a bit stressed and overwhelmed by my work load. Luckily, Benjamin is always willing to lend a helping hand and fill in for me. Just look how well he works under pressure!
Here’s to a great weekend!

Benjamin, Henry & Luna have recently discovered the Mini Ritz crackers with peanut butter filling thanks to their grandparents. They each love peanut butter and they go crazy for these bite-sized crackers. The rule is that if you want something at the store you better write it on the list. I think the boys and Luna are adding a little something to my shopping list.
