Momma's Favorite Things

On Sunday, I had the opportunity to take Momma out for a run for Mother's Day. Like me, she really likes to go outside and run in the fresh air and sniff trees along the Theo Wirth Parkway Trail. So promptly at 7:30AM, I brought my "bro" (my doggy harness) and dog leash into the master bedroom (note: I've been instructed to refrain from calling it a "master bedroom" since Momma says it's just a standard bedroom... whatever). Anyway, Momma shot out of bed, threw on her running clothes and out the door we went. In the meantime, Claire joined Stew in bed, and the two slept until sometime after 8AM. But Stew eventually made his way to the kitchen to make Momma's favorite breakfast for her Mother's Day treat: huevos rancheros. Now, some say Stew is a fairly good chef, but I think there's got to be a better way to make huevos rancheros than slapping an egg with ketchup and jalapeno relish on top of a corn tortilla. Then again, what do I know? I'm just a dog, but I do know I wouldn't eat this (picture me pointing my paw at the photo above).

Then on Sunday afternoon, Momma and Stew took Claire to some open houses to look at property they really don't plan to buy. Since it was Mother's Day, there was a limited amount of open houses from which to choose, and the houses they wanted to look at weren't having open houses. So, they weren't real impressed with either house they saw, and they ended up taking Claire to a playground so she could take care of her slide fix. Claire's a real bear when she's jonesing for a trip down the slide...

Speaking of playgrounds, here's a short film showing Claire and me going to the neighborhood park the other day. Enjoy!
