"no" as in SNOW

Hi Everyone,

Mommy is totally digging her new camera. She is no longer upset about putting up pictures on the blog. We had our first snowfall this year. It was on the Monday after Christmas. Mommy just HAD to take me out in the snow. I really was okay with staying inside for once. Mommy put on my new snowsuit, which I gave her a hard time about. Then the boots, which were totally new to me. I did not know how to walk in those things. I got the hang of it once we were outside. The winter coat was very easy. I would not put on my gloves or hat. Mommy wasn't worried about the hat, because I have a super, duper hood on my coat. Mommy told me that I would want my gloves on when we went outside. I touch a little pile of snow with my hands and I was not happy. I really wasn't happy when Mommy forced the gloves on my hands, but we did get some good quality time outside. We were out ten minutes longer than last year! I tried to help Mommy shovel the driveway, but the shovel is too big for me. Hopefully, we can get outside again this winter.

We had a wonderful week. My age is showing. I am throwing fits and doing naughty things. Mommy and Daddy really can't stand when I throw things around. I throw everything. I do get into trouble for that - but I keep doing it. I have been doing some yelling, and Mommy walks away when I do this. A few times in a store, when it was time to leave - I would get whiney and scream. Again, I am showing my age. Mommy still loves me and we had a great week together. I am a very big helper. Mommy can't believe all the new things I am learning. I also have three new teeth. Since I have the new teeth - my sleep has been wonderful.

Mommy might do one blog this week. It is back to school for her. If we don't blog this week, there will be one on Saturday or Sunday! Have a wonderful week. Love, Niko
