The living room is now overrun with pillows. During the day, the couch is piled high with pillows that the pugs use in the afternoon when they nap and gaze out the front door. But, after dinner, two humans actually like to sit on the couch and unwinding on top of three pillows stacked on the couch isn't all that comfortable. Trust me, I've tried it.
So, before we settled down last night, I took some of the pillows that were on the sofa and just tossed them on the clamshell chair. Within a few minutes, Henry was leaping up to make himself comfortable on the enormous pile.
At first, I almost took one of the pillows down because the stack of 4 put Henry over the edge of the chair on the one side. It was late, I was tired and Henry is clumsy. I was certainly not up for a trip to the emergency vet and having to explain that Henry injured himself falling off a big pile of pillows. But, Henry seemed to have the situation under control, so I let him reign supreme on the ultimate pillow pile.

Things have been pretty quiet here in the OBP house. Walks are still limited because of the heat and humidity and we have been getting a lot of rain this week. Which, ultimately, is great because we can always use the rain. But, in terms of pug adventures things have been very humdrum around here. So, since we don't have any interesting stories to tell, I told the pugs they needed to dial up the cuteness until I dream up something fun for us to do and share with all the OBPers out there.
Have a great weekend everyone and don't forget about the 2011 Calendar Contest.

It has come to my attention that simply laying on the sofa is no longer comfortable enough for the boys. Instead they prefer that at least two pillows be stacked on top of the sofa cushions. I'm thinking we have reaches a new level of spoiled around here.
Also, don't forget to enter your pug's picture in the 2011 Calendar Contest.

When asked what I love about Benjamin, Henry & Luna, one of the things high on my list is that they make me laugh every single day. I was treated to a fine example of their silliness just the other day when we came home from running errands.
When we let the pugs out of their crate, in their excitement, the boys always grab a stuffed toy and run around the house with it in their mouth. Well, apparently, Henry was thirsty and had a bit of a dilemma on his hands because he didn't want to put down the toy down to get a drink. So, he just dropped the toy on the side of the water bowl.
Benny was thirsty too, so he grabbed a quick drink with the toy hanging out on the ledge.
And Henry came back for another drink and that is when the stuffed toy went for a swim.
You may also notice that the stuffed toy is a doll. It was another baby toy that we bought for Luna that was from the same mermaid toy set. However, one again, Henry commandeered it.

For all the trouble it was raising two puppies at the same time, I wouldn't trade it for anything given the tight bond that the boys share. Sure, they welcomed Luna and Sol into their pack, but for a good, long time it was just the boys and from time to time it shows.
After all, these two broke their puppy teeth in together by devouring a wicker toy basket, learned to climb stairs together and always had someone else to blame for potty accidents in the house before they were fully trained.
I don't think Benny can remember a time when there wasn't a Henry around and as much as he likes to play it cool, I don't think Henry would know what to do with himself if there wasn't a Benny around.
After 8 years, they have mellowed more than I could ever imagine. But, from time to time, the boys will be playing and Henry will grab hold of that big wrinkle on the side of Benny's face and pull him around by it, the way he always used to do when they were pups. And, in that moment, it is like having two, clumsy puppies playing at my feet once more.

Land loving Benjamin tested out the raft to see if he could find a way to enjoy it out of the pool. He could have used a bit more cushioning in the seat, but I think he still prefers to sit in the raft when it is parked on solid ground.
When Benny climbed into the raft, Henry came over to see what Benny was up to. Although, I think he was all for setting sail in the raft since he loves to float around the pool and sun himself.
With the boys both involved, Luna felt compelled to sniff around. Her conclusion was that the raft was a pool toy, so she didn't want anything to do with it.
Shortly after Benny tired of sitting in the raft, Henry promptly jumped in to see what it is like at the helm on dry land. He must not have liked it because he didn't stay long.
