Santa Baby!

I met Santa today! He's REAL! Sis told me he was, but you know some people don't think so! I saw him fly by at the Parade a few weeks ago, so I knew he was real! Today, I got to go and talk to him and tell him my Christmas List! He was very, very sweet. He was old, too! I wanted to tug on his beard, but they both told me NO!!

Sis didn't want to be in the picture, but Santa thought it would be the best idea! Sis said, NO - but then Santa said he wouldn't leave her anything under the tree, so she said she would. I heard her say some bad words under her breath - I hope Santa didn't hear and think it was me!

I told you last week that I wanted to tell you about my new dress and Rudy! I will tell you about my new dress, first! Sis and Mom got me a Christmas dress to wear in my picture. I like it! It has a big red bow on it too! I have worn it 2 times - but SHhhhhhhh!! Don't tell Santa!

When Sis and Mom started decorating for Christmas, I found Rudy. He was hiding in the bottom of the closet in a box. There were other decorations in it, too. Nothing was nearly as cool as Rudy. I started taking Rudy everywhere I went. Sis wouldn't let me take him to bed cause she said I was the only Varment allowed up there. She also said I would play and not sleep! She was probably right!

One day, I figured out that if I bit on Rudy's Ear he would sing to me! He sang the BEST song! It was called "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer"! I am not sure who Rudolph is, but Rudy sure did like to sing about him! I think it is my very favorite! I started squeezing his ear over and over! I taught myself how to do it! I was very excited! Sis was kinda shocked!! After 2 days and a new set of batteries, Sis started taking the batteries out. She only let me get Rudy to sing for like 30 minutes a day. I was OK with that, but I wish I could get him to sing all day long! The very next day, He broke. Sis says I bit his ear too hard. All I know is his red nose stopped lighting up, and he stopped singing to me.

I was a very sad girl. I moped for the whole day. I didn't even get out of my bed. Finally, that night, when the moon was out, Sis loaded me up and we went on a mission. We went to all these stores trying to find a new Rudy. Store 1 - no Rudy. Store 2 - No Rudy. Store 3 - No Rudy. Store 4 - No Rudy. Sis started to panic, cause I was so sad. She found me a Marty Moose that sang Marty Moose! Marty Moose! I hated it. She found me a Santa that played drums! YUCK. All I wanted was Rudy. Finally, I settled on Mountian Man. He sings some song that says "Silver and Gold, Silver and Gold, everyone wants Silver and Gold." I like that song. Sis is rolling her eyes. She can't figure out where it came from. She said it makes her crazy. She also says she can't figure out how to take the batteries out of it! Guess what? I figured out how to turn it ON!! He sings to me all day! Sis isn't happy about that. I would show you a picture, but Sis says Mountian Man had a sleepover at Mom's house. She said he would be home tomorrow!

I FINALLY got my picture made with Santa! He REALLY liked me! I told I had been really, really good alllll year! I didn't want to sit on his lap, but I got to tell him my Christmas List! Sis told him she would add it here, too. Just in case he forgot something. He made Sis get in the pic. She said she wasn't going to argue with him cause he may not leave her anything under the tree! I have to agree with her there!After we were done with Santa, I thanked Sis for taking me. I won Attack of the Kisses. Can you tell?

Sis wanted me to take a few Pics in my Christmas Dress. Here. Here is my new Dress, and my best friend Rudy!This is my best friend Rudy! We like to play and sing! He can't sing to me anymore!Sis says Rudy can't sing anymore cause I bit him like this! He used to sing when I did this! Now he won't. I sure hope I can hear Rudy sing again, soon. Sis said that would be as likely as her hitting the lottery in the next week. I don't know what that means, but I am going to ask Santa anyway. Here is my letter to Santa. It isn't very big. I already have SO much! So Santa, here you go! Just like you asked!

Dear Santa,

I love you! Can you please help Rudy sing again? I like Mountian Man - but I LOVE Rudy! I have lots of toys and clothes so I will be short and sweet (I am already short and sweet)...

1. Kong Ziggies for Puppies
2. Squid
3. Holiday Swarovski Spectacular Dress (MOM AND SIS SAY NO WAY!)
4. Pink Cloud Cuddle Cup
5. Collar
6. Harness
7. Skull Harness

Sis says I don't need anything! But, I figured it can't hurt to ask!

I got a tree and it is little like me!

I have a whole lot to blog about! I don't have much time cause Sis is headed out of town, AGAIN. She says I better miss her cause I am stuck with her til New Years! I think I will be just fine. I want to tell you about my friend Rudy. I also want to tell you about pictures with Santa, my very first Holiday Hooty Hoo Party, and of course my new dress but Sis says I have to wait til next week cause that one is gonna be a real good one! I will tell you about my week, instead.

Sis went out of town on Thursday and she told Mom I had done nothing but sleep. Mom thought I was not feeling well so I had to go to the Doctor. YUCK! I was a very sick girl. I have a UTI. Whatever that is. I have to take this bubble gum medicine in a dropper 2 times a day for 10 whole days. Sis says it's pure sugar, I don't know what sugar is cause I have never tasted it. I HATE that medicine. I am almost half way done, though. Today, I feel better than I have in a week.

Sis and Mom put up the Christmas Trees at Sis' house to get ready for her party. I got one too! I am really, really excited about this Christmas thing! Well, I am gonna go, but here is the rest 0f my week!

As you can see, I was vewy, vewy sick. I wore my jammies all day and night. All I wanted to do was cuddle. NOT get my stupid picture made!
Mom had to hold me down to force me to take that bubblegum medicine. I think it was YICK. Sis liked it! She said Yummy! Mom gives me a cookie when I am done, though - so it isn't too bad.

I sure was trying to feel better. But I just didn't. I felt like pooh!Mom said I really needed to shake it off. She said I needed to get outta my jammies and into a sweater! I felt bad still, so she let me have breakfast in bed! I kinda like this treatment!The next day, I felt even better! Sis friend Julie Brearley brought me a mitten toy for this Christmas thing. It squeeks! I LIKE it A LOT! It made me feel better!!!Sis let me have my very OWN tree! It is little like me! I put lights and some trains on it! I can't reach it cause it's on the counter, but I can see it! I think I did pretty good at decorating it!Here is Sis' Trees. I know you don't like them as much as mine, but I thought you may want to see.

I saw Santa Claus!!

I don't know what Sis was thinking. She took me to my first Christmas Parade. Her friends were judging the floats and the bands. We went and sat with them. Sis packed up all the good stuff like KONG. Luckily, she packed my coat, too. It got realllllly windy!

There were lots of floats and animals that walked by. There were also lots of High School Marching Bands. I HATED those. They hurt my ears! I LOVED the animals, though! But I really LOVED Santa and the sleigh!

Here are some horsees. Nope. No Santa here.

You can see me lookin for him and his reindeer! I thought this was him! I got all excited! It was just a stoopid cow. Dressed up yelling - "Eat More Chicken!" - I don't even know what Chicken is!

Then, like 2 whole hours later - he came. He was there! He flew right by me in his sleigh! Sis whispered in my ear to look! I did!There he is! He is in the sleigh and he had his reindeer flying it, too! Sis said I had to wait til Saturday to go to sit on Santa's lap. She said I could tell him what I wanted, then. I have been a really GOOD girl. I bet I get everything I ask for!

It was getting dark. Sis and I were cold. Even my pink fur collar wasn't keeping me warm. Sis wanted everyone to know the following: I was scared to death of the loud drums and the bands. She also says she had to walk away with me when they came. She has no pictures of them, but I don't care. She said her High School won for best marching band. Sooooo. She also said that she didn't get many pics of the cool floats cause I kept wanting to walk around and see stuff.

On a sad note, I stepped on 2 thorns. They got in my hand and foot. I didn't cry too much. Just a little cause I am a big girl. Sis scooped me up and got them out really quick. I over heard her telling the judges that she thought I had gotten a hold of a crack pipe since we were in the downtown area...and not the best part at that. I don't know what any of that means, but I know this, the thorns hurt me really bad and after that happened, my feet didn't touch the ground for the rest of the day.

Totally Turkey and Holiday Madness!

I hope you guys have been sitting on the edges of your seats for this well anticipated blog. Great things come to those who wait. I, of course, would know nothing about that. This blog will be pretty lengthy cause it has been a minute since I posted. We have all been busy! What can I say?!
It all started pretty innocently the night before Turkey Day. I was minding my own business, having myself a little piece of dried sweet potato. I LOVE these! You should try them! They are "Human Tested"!

The next Morning, as I was sorta still in my sleep clothes, my MOM got this crazy idea. You can see what I thought of it when I heard.Mom decided I should start practicing to be a "Rockette." You know! The ones that kick their legs up really high and all live in NYC! Sis says the look on my face when Mom started making me learn is stolen right from her very own. She says this is one of her "signature looks."
On the FIRST try I kicked my leg up REALLLY high! Mom and Sis just couldn't believe it. Looks like I may have an audition in NYC soon! Look at the ease on my face. What did they think? My long legs were made for kick lines!

Sis took a rare picture with me cause it was actually Turkey Day. I am not sure why they call it that. I haven't seen any Turkey, yet. Sis wouldn't stay in her nice clothes at all. As soon as Chief was gone, she was back to flip flops, hat and a Tshirt. What else is there?Let me tell you. It's TURKEY day. It's TURKEY day! I GOT NO TURKEY! NONE! I was forced to eat my everyday food! Thankful? For this? I suppose my disgust is written all over my face, here. Friday was the BIG day. It was the day the Razorbacks BEAT the NUMBER ONE TEAM IN THE NATION! They are called LSU. Sis calls them LS-WHO? She wants our Coach to leave. On Monday he did. She was really, really happy. It was SUPER cold, too. I wore Razorback Red Fleece Warm Up suit for the game. I went to Mom's cause Sis went to a party where I could easily get into trouble. Mom and I actually WATCHED the game! I say who needs a good Bowl Game when you can beat the best at their own home field?! Too bad we couldn't win anything on our home field all season.

Saturday it was SUPER cold, too. It was icky and raining. If you remember, I got a new raincoat. Sis wouldn't let me wear it. Well guess what? She finally let me! It's purple with hearts and it's kinda slickery! I like it. I know you do too.Today, after braving the rain AND the Waffle House, Mom put up Sis' tree - while Sis Supervised. They picked out a cool ornament for me to have on my First Christmas. I hung it in the VERY front of the big ole tree! It doesn't match anything on there! It just sticks out! That is why it is in the perfect place!Well, I gotta go. This has been a long one! There is still decorating to be done and I have spied a reindeer over there with my name on it....

CoCo "Turkey, Turkey" Cox

There must be something in the water...

In an unprecedented act, CoCo has decided NOT to blog today. She feels she needs to gather the thoughts for her Turkey Day blog. According to media sources, she was unavailable for pictures and had only one comment. "Bring on the Turkey, Turkey! What ever that is!" until further notice - like a day, CoCo will leave you with a wide array of past pictures - never viewed on this blog before.



Editors Note: She may be a little upset that no one has left her a comment this week. Wink...

When they don't pay attention to her, she scratches her own back. She would never admit this, though.

Sometimes, just for fun, she likes to wear her Sis' hats. Today, she wore this little trucker number. It's only a tad big...She also enjoys taking her own legs OUT of her warmup suits. Don't be fooled at the somewhat embarrassed look on her face. She is, however the most smiling poopsy we have all ever met. Here she is wide eyed and chuckling, now!- CoCo's Blog For the Day Editor

Bath Time and Attack of the Kisses!

It's been a really busy week. That is what Sis says. She is leaving town again on Thursday to work in PA. Then she comes home to see me for like 10 hours and flies back out to Boston. She sure does LOVE it there. She goes all the time!

I got a brand new raincoat. Guess what?! It rained today! Sis wouldn't let me go outside OR put it on. She said she didn't have one and she didn't want to get wet. How mean!!

I took a bath this morning - Mom gave me one. She said I was stinky and that it was gonna be really cold for the rest of the week. I think it was really cold when I got out of the bath! I cuddled up in my blanket to stay warm!

Once I was dry, I got to wear one of my new Birthday presents. It was a blue shirt. I also got to play attack of the kisses with Sis. I love this game! She doesn't like it as much!

Sis said NOT to put a picture of her looking this bad and playing this game on my blog. I did it anyway. HA!

Sheesh! The Week is Almost Over!

Sorry I didn't blog yesterday. I was pooped. My Birthday kinda took it all outta me. Sis and Mom said it was proly cause I didn't eat any of my food. Only cookies and treats. Even today I have been a little bit sluggish. Today, we only walked to the end of the road. That is a 1/2 mile. Usually, I like to go twice as far.



Sis says we had to get away from the office and get some stuff done. She said there wasn't a dish or a piece of clothing (mainly mine) in the house that was clean. 'Cept my bowls of course! I stayed busy seperating the colors from the whites - or mixing them up - whatever I felt like. When Sis caught me, I got to ride in my new pouch for the rest of the day. I got it for my Birthday! I like it, but sometimes I loose my stick in there and Sis has to find it for me!!





After we finished getting stuff clean, I got to play with my STICK! I love my stick! I carry it lots of places and chew on it all the time - especially when someone...MOM - forgets to pack my Kong back up when it's time for me to go back home to Sis' house. I have a hood on my grey sweatshirt and sometimes I like to wear it! Sis' house is like an ice box - remember? You could hang meat in there! Soooo I wore my hood and played with my stick!

I tell ya. Sis is home this weekend, but she is gonna walk with some Dinosaurs. Don't know what that means but she says they would scare me. I don't believe her. I am gonna spend the night with Mom. The Hogs play tomorrow morning and I gotta have a good seat to root them on!

Woo Pig!

It's My Birthday and I'll Sleep if I Want Too!

Yipee!!! it's finally here. My very first birthday. I didn't sleep too much last night because I was soooo excited..not knowing what to expect...it's just all too new to me. I was pretty lazy this morning and didn't want to do anything except sleep. Then mom gave me my Birthday PeanutButter Sucker and I got pretty excited. I've never had peanut butter before...I like it!!

My friends wanted a piece of my Sucker, but I said "NO WAY!" then Mom took it away from me so my tummy didn't hurt. Oh well, I still got Kong back!

See my pictures in my birthday dress and bow and my new fur coat. I really like them a lot. As you can see I'm pretty cute wearing them! Sis says I have to wait another whole year to have a birthday again...darn...I like this birthday thing.

I LOVE my new coat! It is furry and has pearl buttons! It also has a bow!

Sometimes ya need a little Friend to lean on when you've had all that "cake"! My tummy is FULL!

I had a whole guest list of friends. Here is our picture! I HATE dogs and cats. I don't like most people either. I didn't invite any cause of that! So I had all my other buds along. If you didn't make the list, better luck next year! I got lots of cards from Humans, so I guess next time I will have to add them! Thanks everyone!

Well, the day's not over yet so I may have another post. I got some birthday cards and gifts and I'm a happy girl.

1 day and counting!! I am almost 1!!

It's one more day and counting! Today, I got to go on a LONG drive with Sis and Mom. We went to run some errands and Mom had to take back some of my Birthday presents cause they were icky. The mail came and I had my very first package that was delivered to ME! It was from Sis' best buddy Lindsey Vuolo and her little man Diesel!! You all know who she is! She is Diesel's MOM! D-Man is my friend! They sent me a Birthday present! I LOVED it! See the pic below to see what it was! Sis let me open it early, cause she says she knew what it was and it would be one of my favorites! It is!!!

Here is my new shirt! I LOVE it! It has a skull on it and Sis says this one is Rock and Roll!

Sis says this is one of the best pics ever! She says she has never seen me frown and that I am doing that here! I don't know what a frown is, but I don't think I like it!

Sis said I needed to work on my "Abs" cause this new shirt is a "belly shirt". Here I am doing my crunches!!

This is Diesel! We call him D-man for short! I LOVE him and I haven't even met him yet! Sis says he likes to chew on her ankles!

This is Lindz! You already know that, though! She lives in Greece! Sis says she's coming home for good in a week! I like her and we have the same job, too!

I hope I get some comments for my Birthday! That would be super cool!!!
