Behind the Scenes: Sweet Sleepy Pups

There is no doubt that my life revolves around these two pudgy pups. The amount of love I have for them is totally immeasurable and indescribable. I can't even begin to imagine the overwhelming love I will have for our kids once we decide to expand our family. I cannot fathom it being bigger than this. You always hear new moms saying "I never thought I could love something so much" but I get it... I totally get it. That's exactly how I feel about Pipkin and Georgia. Silly maybe, but I take my role as puppy mom seriously. There's nothing I wouldn't do for those sweet faces. Just look at them! 

Speaking of... I've worked up a fabulous tribute tattoo for Georgia! Yes, I know, I'm getting a tattoo for my dog. I know some of you are side-eyein' me right now but it just seems fitting! (Just wait until you see it... ha!) I'm not sharing what it'll be (only a few people know) but it's fantastic. And so special in it's own way! Pipkin will undoubtedly get one, too. Don't worry! No favoritism here, folks! Now to make the appointment...

Look who's 2! Miss Georgia Sue!

My sweet baby bully is two years old today! Coming in just a day after my blog's birthday, and two after Mike's dad, celebrations are in full-swing at our little home. Well, wrestling is in full swing I should say. Georgia is feeling loads better after her two eye surgeries on Thursday and now she won't stop playing with Pip (even though we're trying to get her to calm down). Glad to know that even at 2 she's still a puppy at heart! Doesn't that translate into teenage human years? Or so the myth/thought says. I can see that... she's defiant sometimes like you'd expect a teenager to be, but she's still the absolute apple of my eye. I remember picking her out of the bunch, thinking I wanted a male at the time. She was so demure and sweet, following me feet around the yard. It was love at first sight. Sometimes she impersonates a baked potato perfectly (arms and legs tucked under her rotund belly, laying there lifeless), but you'd be surprised how much power and energy that stout little body holds. 

I love that little dog so very much. Waking up every morning with her snoring at my feet is the best... even if I do have to struggle with the covers that she's pinned under herself. And sometimes, just sometimes, she lets me cuddle her up on my pillow with my arms around her at night like a teddy bear. Okay, so to say I love her is an understatement. I'd pay for a million more surgeries if it meant keeping her around forever!

Happy birthday, Georgia Sue! 

iPhone Photo Dump

The past week hasn't been too condusive to updating the blog or doing anything fun and exciting. I'm still battling the pericoronitis and I missed both nights of work this past weekend due to it. It has not be fun to be laid up on the couch, ibuprofen pumping through me, and missing out on a whole week's worth of pay. Frustration station! I'm still in a bit of pain but I've taken all of my antibiotics and this morning I learned that antibiotics and coffee do not mix well on an empty stomach! Yeesh! Mike and I are about to head to Nashville for the day to look at a few rental properties including a factory-converted-loft. He's been applying to a bunch of places to snag a new job so hopefully the universe will come together and something good will happen!

Until then, I'm leaving you with some iPhone photos (mainly of the pups) from the past week or so. Nothing too exciting, but I promise I'll have something fabulous for you shortly! xo

















If you've ever been curious, well, now you know! I am indeed that creepy lady with a million pictures of her dogs on her phone. Yikes. But c'mon... aren't they precious?!

Pip's First Snow!

As I stated earlier, we've managed to get our first real snow of the season. More often than not the first is also the last, but I'm thinking we're in store for some pretty white days this year! Georgia really really loves the snow. [I'll share a video from her first snow last year!] Pip is a July baby though so this year was her first! She gets cold easily so she'll have be bundled up from now on, but otherwise, she loves it! She and Georgia had so much fun! Of course we had to take an immense amount of photos! Here you go! Cute puppy snow spam!












After, of course, they curled up on the couch together for a snooze. They melt my heart!




Now, before you guys get all huffy puffy about the sincere lack of snow, just know that the mentioning of flurries sends people in Tennessee into a panic. No, we cannot drive for crap in the snow. Yes, we really do think the apocolypse is coming. Yes, we do get excited over an inch or two. Haha! We're Southern people!

Here's a video of Georgia's first snow last year. She had no idea what to think of it.



Hooray for cute pups! Do your animals like the snow?


PS; All images from our new Nikon D300s! We're love love loving it! It's so crisp and awesome. With that being said, our Nikon D40 [with new 18-55mm f3.5/56 VR lens] needs a new home! They go for $400-$500 online still used but we're only asking $350 and that includes domestic shipping! Email me [kaelahbee@gmail.com] if you're interested!  SOLD! Thanks for the interest, y'all!

Dumping a load of photos on you for the day! Still insanely under the weather (haven't left the couch all day and I've been exercising my right to Nyquil). The good news is that the sore throat has disappeared (hopefully for good!) and I'm only battling insane congestion. Since I wasn't able to share some amazing wedding goodness with you, hopefully a million pictures of my babies will do! 

 

Mike and I at target the other day.

 

 

Mike opening his new toy: Nikon d300s. He's in love.

 

 

Georgia sits on Pip when she wants to calm her down.

 

 

 

Pipkin nuzzled up near G's backside to snooze. If you know anything about either of our pups, you'll know that that is NOT a place you EVER want to be.

 

The girls curled up next to my head this morning on the couch and slept next to me while I was sickly. Sweetest girls ever.

Back to my please-get-healthy mission! Hope you're all having a great night <3

New Hair and New Tattoo!

New cotton candy curls and a fully finished sleeve! I promise better pictures of my arm once it's all healed up nice and pretty! I just had to throw in some Pip and Georgia, too! [I feel so much more like Kaelah with my curls back!] I'll be drawing the winner of the Miss Violet Lace giveaway tomorrow! xo
