The other morning, Benjamin pulled up a chair at the breakfast table and was eyeing my banana. The evil part of me loves to test the pugs. Especially, when it is a choice between something they really want (food) and something they know they shouldn't do (eat off the table).
So, while Benny was eyeing my banana, I moved the banana to the edge of the table so that it was easily in Benny's reach. He sniffed it a few times and then played it cool. He learned a while ago, the hard way I might add, that bananas are foods you peel before you eat. So, I knew that an unpeeled banana wasn't going to be much of a temptation for him.
So, I opened the banana just a tad and sat it back on the table. Benny became much more interested and smelled the banana and then licked his lips and smelled the banana a bit more. He looked at the banana, then looked at me, back at the banana and then back to me. It was as if he knew it was one of my sinister tests. So, I of course caved and give him, Henry and Luna a few bites of banana.

Benjamin's 9th birthday is sneaking up on him and so is the gray. I think it makes him look more distinguished. He thinks it makes him look like he needs a treat.
Have a wonderful weekend!

This is a shot of the boys after their bath a few weeks ago, but lately Benjamin & Henry have been romping around the house more and more. When they were pups it was all play all the time, then Luna came along and they each had someone more interesting to play with. Then they decided that sitting on the couch is more fun than chasing each other.
But, lately, they are back to wrestling around for a bit in the evenings, usually right before we go on our walk. The roughhousing doesn't last nearly as long as it did when they were pups, but it still makes me smile to see them play even a little bit. While they are many years older, their style of play hasn't changed much at all. Benny still likes to nip at Henry's ankles and Henry loves to grab hold of that big ole wrinkle on the side of Benny's face and pull him around the house. Boys!
On a side note, I received an email from Grannygoogs early this morning. Looks like she is back online. I will make sure that she receives today's Daily Pug Picture and hopefully we will see her around soon.

I think it doesn't matter how good of a weekend you had or how much sleep you got on Sunday night or what you have to look forward to in the upcoming week, Monday mornings tend to make everyone a little grumpy.

It is rare to ever find this arm of the couch pugless. The boys love to sit in this spot because they have a clear view out the front door. Even, Luna has been sitting there lately.
Usually, the pugs take turns sitting there. But, lately, the boys have been sharing the spot. So, to anyone that might pass by the house, beware, we have two pugs on guard duty now.

You can always count on Benny to make himself as comfortable as possible. Although, his butt might be a little sore after the whooping the Steelers gave the Ravens this weekend. Congrats, Steelers fans. There is always next year, I guess.

I made a quick trip up to see G-Ma over the holidays and as soon as I got home Benjamin wanted to know what G-Ma had put in my suitcase. And G-Ma did not disappoint. In the front pouch, right where Benny is sniffing, G-Ma stuck a few ginger snap cookies that Benjamin went crazy over last Christmas.
Last year, G-Ma got a tin of gingersnaps and both Benny and G-Ma loved them. So, Santa thought it would be a good idea to bring more this year. I think it is safe to say both Benny and G-Ma were quite pleased with Santa.
