Names ... Another List

Mr. K and I really can't refer to our new addition as "Baby Girl Dog K" for the next 12 years. We need to come up with a name!

Here is (of course) a list of names I like for our precious boxer baby:

  1. Whiskey (as in Whiskey Girl by Toby Keith)
  2. Coach (the leather)
  3. (Donna) Mattingly
  4. Kingsley (my super preppy baby girl dog)
  5. Lola (she was a show girl)
  6. Corona (Light!)
  7. Aruba (fave vacation destination)
  8. Harlow (compromise because Mr. K loved "Harley")
  9. Trinity (Church where we got married)
  10. Jax (what I would've named a boy yellow lab)
  11. Scout (because she wasn't the trouble maker, just scouting it out!)
  12. Navy (pin stripes)

Baby on the Way!

Now that we have a "baby" on the way, we need to start preparing! "Baby Girl Dog K" comes home November 21!

Here is a list of some things "Baby Girl Dog K" will immediately need:

1. A super preppy dog collar. I like this Burberry variation!

2. Four Paws Wee Wee Pads. Let's face it, as precious as she is, she is not house broken.

3. Nylabones. We can't have "Baby Girl Dog K" chewing up all Mrs. K's expensive shoes!
4. Iams brand puppy food for large dog breeds. She's going to be a big girl (mom is 60 lbs!)



5. No-tip stainless bowls for food and water.
6. Travel carrier for all her appointments and social commitments while she's too little to ride in the back seat solo.

7. A big crate for when we have to leave her home alone. While our kitchen is not updated, I'd still prefer not to have my ugly 1985 cabinets chewed apart!


8. A Puppy Snuggie for when she's just chilling, watching TV with us!

Yabba Dabba Doo!

Happy Belated Halloween (and Happy Belated Birthday to Miss KAR!)

Miss KAR threw an excellent birthday/halloween/world series party this past Saturday! The food was amazing and the costumes were excellent!

Here I am (Wilma) with Mr. K (Fred) and our dear friends Miss R (yes, yet another one of my friends is "Miss R") and Mr. B (Betty and Barney).

Next year we'll have our little Dino to add to the group!



It's a GIRL!

Meet "Baby Girl Dog K". She's a female boxer puppy, 5 weeks old, and is absolutely PRECIOUS! We are still brainstorming names and are open to suggestions so feel free to leave your comments!




Cocktail

For my future (well, VERY VERY soon to be) sister in law's bachelorette party, I baked these lovely, festive cookies. Varieties included: dark chocolate, milk chocolate, American, blue balls, and the one eyed monster.

Long List

I now have a long list of things I need to post on my blog.

  1. I can bake (see next post)
  2. Yabba Dabba Doo! (coming soon)
  3. It's a GIRL! (coming soon)

Moment of Weakness

In a moment of weakness, I purchased the below. How am I going to explain this to my husband???? (In my defense, they were such a good deal, I couldn't pass it up. They were so cheap, it was almost like stealing!).
