Will you be my Valentine???

I wasn't real sure about this Valentine's Day I kept hearing about everywhere I went this month but I think I have it figured out now. It's all about the flowers, candy and cards. My gamma gave me a card that was full of actual kisses when you opened it and mommy and Mick got me a big red dog. We named the dog Valley and I love rolling around on the floor with him he's big, fluffy and soft. I got my gamma some flowers and a card and mommy and I took them to her house while she was sleeping. She said she liked them a whole lot. So I guess as long as you show up with flowers and cards you will always be hit with the ladies on this particular day of the year. Anyway I hope there aren't alot of days like this in the year cause I don't know if my piggy bank can handle much more.

Mick can read........

Here's one of my new pics reading one of the dozens of books that Mick's sister Cathy donated to my collection. I try to read a book every night when I'm not too tired. Sometimes I think Mick skips some pages but I get the general idea of what this bear named Pooh is doing. I love to hold the book with him and sometimes all I really want to do is chew on it but mommy and Mick won't let me. Anyway, just wanted everyone to know that I have started a new hobby and I think I'll be reading to Mick in no time.

Do you hear that????

That's the sound of silence. Yep you are not going to believe it but I am sleeping the entire night in my own bed by myself. Well actually I hold tight to my giraffe but still. Mommy and Gamma say I am such a big boy now. I get to read two books at night and then I lay in my bed for a while and the next thing I know it's morning and Mommy is grinning at me. I will admit that the first couple of nights I woke a few times but it was nothing I got a little upset then rolled over and went to sleep. I know that Mick misses spending so much time with me at night but I think he'll get over it real soon. By the way, that stuff my mommy and the ladies at school keep trying to shove in my mouth isn't happening. They keep shoveling and I keep spitting it right out. I think it's kind of funny really they make all these faces at me and I just keep my mouth closed tight as I can. All I have to say is bring on the real food my friends because that stuff is just plain yucky.
