We bought a new dog bed over the weekend (as a replacement, I promise) and shortly after bringing it home, Cupid claimed it. Each evening she has been snuggled in and sleeping soundly in the new bed.

So far, the pugs seem to have accepted Cupid's decision to claim the bed as her own.

Henry likes to lay flat out on his back soaking up the sun a lot. When he gets up it is usually a gradual process. He will roll over to his side and then from there get back on his paws.
But, my favorite, is when he gets excited and tries to roll over in one swift motion, like in the picture. He will attempt to go from flat on his back to up on his paws and ready to run in one motion. If he makes it on his feet the first time, he gets even more excited and you can be sure that he will take off and run a few circles around something because nothing gets him more fired up than flipping up and landing on his feet on the first try.
Have a good weekend!

Since the weather has been very pug friendly the last week or so, the pugs have been way more active as of late. They are in the yard more soaking up the sun, we are back to going on quick walks at lunch and long walks in the evenings. During the summer the pugs don't dare attempt to walk during midday hours. Plus, the pugs can venture out with us in the car when we run some errands without getting overheated.
I know winter is settling in in many places and that means lots of cold weather and limited walks and pug activities. But in FL, winter is season that best agrees with pugs.

Over the weekend, we picked our first sweet potato from the garden. It was the first time we ever tried our hand at growing sweet potatoes and we were pleasantly surprised to find a potato growing under the dirt. When we planted the plants, I was kinda thinking we weren't going to have much luck.
So, now that we have this sweet potato, I need to find something to do with it. I thought about putting it in a soup I make, but I don't have any of the soup's other ingredients on hand. We need to make more food for the pugs tonight so I think I will bake it in the oven and add it to the pugs food. They love sweet potatoes and I am sure they would love to be the first tasters of the homegrown sweet potato.

Take a few pugs, add in a dash of cold weather and BOOM! Instant snuggle buddies.

If you asked the boys, they would say that this weekend's weather was perfect pug weather. If you ask the former Miami pug, she would tell you that it was way too cold for her liking the past two days.
On Saturday, we took the pugs to one of our favorite parks and when it is hot out we can barely get one lap around the lake in. But, since it was so cool outside, the pugs were eager to go for two laps.

On Sunday, we went to another park and got in another long walk. It was a bit earlier in the day, so Luna sported a red hoodie to keep warm. About halfway through the walk, Luna warmed up enough and was able to shed her jacket.
Later on Sunday evening it was blanket and couch time. All 3 of the pugs could agree that sofa, pillow and blanket time was super cozy.
