a thing in 389 photos edie Wiener parade! Three-wiener party! Watering the hounds. We also had Edie with us! Edie enjoys being in a bag! Edie and Meredith wishing me a happy July 1st. Good morning! Haha. Couch doogs. These two guys even nap together all the time. Such buds. Badger dogs! All wiener dogs are always so excited to see other wiener dogs. They always run across the park to investigate. Look who was waiting for me when I got home in the middle of the night. Awwww. A North American Silky-haired Bed-Weasel! ...Edie did her impression of Triumph, The Insult Comic Dog! She even had a little piece of rawhide for a cigar. Spot on! Edie fell asleep resting her chin in a sunbeam on the stairs. A-dorable. My absolute favorite photo of Edie and Maddy. Awwww. Yes, hello? Us? Check out these dog-buds. Chilling. Then later that night, Lisa and Pauly (and Pizza the dog!) came over for Family Night. DOWN HOUND! Hahaha. Let me taste that delicious nose of yours! Funnily enough, I don't think this is the first time he's had two wieners in his face! Ba-dum-cha! I went into my office in the evening and found both of the dogs burrowing into the comforter on the couch. Edie had her face tucked under the edge... These two were very interested in the smell of frying falafel. Mmmm. Sarah come over to hang out. Happy April 2009! Squinty. Total buddies. We arrived back at the apartment to find these two curled up in the afternoon sun. Love that turkey bone! Rachael come over at eight and made friends with Edie (who has an angel halo in this photo because she's a little angle!). Pauly is appalled. And wiener-covered. Wiener dogs on the move. ...to attend Daschund Day in Washington Square Park ! So much awesome in my living room it's unbelievable. Just a basic Wednesday night hang. You literally can't have a bad day with these guys around. Three clean noses! ...I found these two napping in the sunshine in the their matching outfits. Reeee-diculous. When I came home on Sunday... No, I ATTACK YOU ! I ATTACK YOU! Ten hours later and they're still at it. Although, they moved the BATTLE ARENA to the much larger couch. Ear cleanse deluxe! No charge for you! Nose licking retaliation. BAP! Stubby brass paw to the ear! When these two fight, they make weird honking noises and if you were in the other room you would think it was geese and not dogs. Total weirdos. Hahaha. This photo makes me laugh out loud. (I also like how there's a rat in the background.) Is adorable? OMG! Meredith's latest CRAFTQUEST! at the time was sewing matching outfits for the dogs. Back at the apartment later that night, we snuggled with dogs... Aw, really? On my way out the apartment on Monday morning I walked into the living room and these two were just sitting on the couch like this side by side. Total buds. Edie was there too. It was a regular dog party. On Sunday we took the dogs to the dog park together for the first time! Look at how Maddy used to fall asleep! All balled up light a little speckled hedgehog. Such winning hounds. Speckly pals. ...and then they settled in together. Edie turned in circles padding the bed down... I told Leigh that Edie and Maddy had become buds in her absence and put the dog-bed on the couch to demonstrate. Taking the doogs out for their first walk together in the Stuytown courtyard. Dog friends? ...and was surprised to find that Edie (who you can see has her dog-toenails painted!) considered my lap off-limits to Maddy. Haha. MY LAP! Maddy was forced to slink away in what is probably the most adorable picture of dejection ever taken. On Sunday afternoon, Scott brought Edie over to our apartment so she could meet Maddy. Maddy was as interested as she was concerned and kept getting chased in worried circles by Edie. Look at her eyes in this photo. Haha. But a couple minutes later, they were both excited to learn that my lap has a two-wiener capacity. She kept seeking refuge in my lap... Special appearance by Edie and Thomas! Edie has junkyard teeth! Edie has junkyard teeth! Later that night I went over to Leigh's. Here's me playing Edie like she's a guitar. Friends! Edie's favorite place to sit is a person's chest. Haha. Get a load of this guy! Gurj, Mandy, Meredith, Leigh holding up Edie who she snuck up into the balcony via her purse, and Omri. Lazy Saturday. Wiener explorer. I walked her stubby little legs all the way to Stuytown. After, I went back to Leigh's place to get Edie! Leigh was going away for a few weeks and Meredith and I were going to watch her. Edie LOVES to travel in her bag, as soon as you put it on the ground, she climbs on in. Haha. A-dorable. Happy Halloween, Crayola Weasel! Edie sort of got used to her costume and kept it on even after we left the park. Pointy cone head! Edie's expression in this photo is the dog equivalent of when Ralphie's mom makes him put the bunny suit on in A Christmas Story . So good. Edie was there wearing the Crayola Wiener Crayon outfit that Meredith Leigh made. (Sorry, Leigh! I forgot!) On Saturday night Ellen came over! Happy September 2008! I Friday I hung out with my dog-buddy Edie. Then we played a game that we call "GOT YOUR TONGUE." (PS - Edie, I see your wrinkly neck!) ...and dogs alike! This is one of my favorite pictures of Edie. Aaaah-dorable. So happy to have a dog to cuddle with. On Thursday evening, Leigh stopped by and dropped off Edie to stay with us for a couple of days while she had to travel. Stretch it out, wiener dog! On Monday night I hung out with my girls. Here's Scott and Mer walking her around! (If you look between them on the ground you'll see a teeny, tiny school bus! That's actually Edie!) Here's Meredith making sure our little competitor stays warm by stashing her away in her purse! Here's Mer, Leigh and (a foot-biting) Scott with the little, wiener-y contest all dressed up and ready to walk in her school bus outfit ...which had a whole photo spread on the MisShapes. And they even managed to get Edie into the shoot! When I got back to our place, I was greeted by this friendly, turkey-boned visitor! Leigh had dropped off Edie for a couple of days while she was traveling! This is one of my favorite Edie pics because you can really see how long and weinery her weird body is! It also does an excellent job of showcasing her turkey-bone which you can see jutting out at what is pretty much a right-angle from the rest of her body! Afterwards we partied on the WienerBus express! Lions and Weasels can be friends! Sexy friends. Right after I took this picture, I was suddenly struck by overwhelming nostalgia for my teen years in the late 80s. At first I couldn't, for the life of me, figure out what had triggered my sudden nostalgia.
