Winter Fun

When the snow finally came for a few days earlier this month, Bailey was so excited about the arrival that we went out to our yard in the middle of the night to play in the snow.
By morning, she couldn't wait to get back outside in the freezing cold! A few of her favourite things to do is to catch snowballs, tear down snow castles and make dog angels. Ever since Bailey was a pup, she has always believed that the snow shovel was a snowball toss machine. She would entice the shovel to play with her first. Then when it is filled with snow Bailey would back up and get ready for her pounce.
At times, I wonder if Bailey really wanted us to toss the snow at her because her expression in the picture above shows otherwise... It's as if she's saying "please, please don't hit the face!".

Chinese New Year

Gung Hei Fat Choi!! We wish everyone a very prosperous year of the dragon!
Bailey has already started the new year with a great start by receiving lots of red envelopes (all of which she will be spending on treats).

Christmas Fun

Sorry for not posting in awhile! Bailey and I have been stuffing our tummies full for the last couple of weeks, but now we've emerged from our food coma! We hope everyone had a lovely and wonderful Christmas and New Years with their loved ones.
Bailey had quite an exciting Christmas, she enjoyed helping us open every single present. It felt more like Bailey's birthday rather than Christmas. With four years of experience with wrapping paper, Bailey has developed an intricate system. She would tear a large piece of wrapping then run off to her tearing station and rip the paper into many little pieces. It's quite clever indeed, she would only tear the wrapping paper in one area as to not make a mess in other areas of the house. Funny thing, she knows the difference between regular paper and wrapping paper. For instance, a day or two after X-mas she found a piece of left over wrapping paper under the table and proceeded to have fun with it whereas on normal days when she comes over to my school desk she will leave my homework alone.
It took approximately two hours to finish unwrapping all the presents, and this year we didn't have that many either! Apparently unwrapping presents is such hard work that when we finished, she plopped immediately onto her bed and fell asleep right away. Being the mischeivious me that I am, I couldn't resist taking funny pictures of Bailey as she was trying to sleep.
