I know I am not half as cute as Baby E, and I am more high maintenance to boot. But the family has laid down the law and Nicole won't be posting pictures of the baby's face in the future.
But hey. What's wrong with my mug? As dogs go, I think I am pretty stylin'. Even though there aren't many groomers who are that happy to see me. That's why I am kinda shaggy right now. Haven't been to the groomer in many a moon. I hate that place. They make me wear the "Happy Cap" when I get my hair groomed. I hate the Happy Cap. I haven't actually ever *bitten* anyone. They are just nervous nellies who think because I growl that I am likey to take a piece out of their arm. Heh heh. I'd never do that. Heh heh.
Nicole will be back tomorrow with a quilty post, so don't despair. She never meant she would stop blogging or change up her style much. Just not so many pics of that darn baby. Honest to Pete, things sure have changed around here since that kid came into the picture. "She's so adorable, she's so cute, isn't she smart, how awesome is she? Blah blah blah". What a fuss. I will say they buy the kid cool toys, but really. They don't let me anywhere near 'em. Well, there was that little incident with the rubber ducky...
This face is just fine with me. I have loved Ozzie's adventures.

Ozzie is welcome to star on your blog since a little Miss Someone's arrival has moved him off center stage! Cute mug, to boot!
When DS1 was born, our 6 year old mutt took on nursemaid role, but when he started to walk, she'd bump him in the diaper so he'd fall. It was like she was telling him that he was low man on the family totem pole! When DS2 was born, said nursemaid dog sniffed him, and turned away shaking her head as if we had learned nothing from having the first kid around!
Hugs!

Yes, Ozzie is 'almost' as cute! I love his mis-adventures!!

Well, helllloooooo Ozzie! Great to see you! You are such a handsome boy! Don't be a stranger because you're a crowd favorite! ...psssst! what happened to the rubber ducky?? ...you didn't??...

Your Grandbaby is really cute and I totally understand your decision. Better safe than sorry. Lucky you have such a gorgeous dog to star in your blog instead. Keep showing us the Ozzie photos!

You have gone and done it Nicole. I have resisted forever, the making of bags and ditties while concentrating on making quilts. However I just love the versatility of the size of the bags you have made. Having bought quite a few of the high-priced brands for the new daughters who have joined the family, I plan to make use of your tutorial for making my own. Eva looks like she is rock'n the family. We are holding our breath with excitement over the coming wedding of our younger son and fiance in about two weeks. Loved catching up with Ozzie. He is such a rock; he never changes!!

Ozzie works for me!
Of course, Sophie updates would be welcomed as well.
And, in case you didn't know, quilty posts are always well read & loved.

Hello Ozzie! You are the stand in I see..well that's ok, and even though you don't want to admit it, I think you secretly love baby E as much as the rest of the family. You can't fool us. If push came to shove, you would be right there with all the other family members guarding her with your life. Nice try though...
Posted by: Wendy | May 02, 2012 at 07:38 AM
I do love Ozzie. Its a shame how guarded we need to be in today's world.
Posted by: Mary Flynn | May 02, 2012 at 07:46 AM
Ozzie always makes me smile! (Even when he's being ornery, or maybe that's especially when he's being ornery??) Will miss the pictures of Baby E, but totally understand....our enjoyment of seeing her pictures isn't worth any worries over her safety!
Looking forward to hearing about more of your adventures and seeing more lovely quilting and other projects!

Love it!

Love that Ozzie and I bet he loves Baby E.

Ozzie - You'll do in a pinch, you're such a cutie! I have two dachshunds, Molly and Max and they're glad to see/hear about someone other than babies too, since we have a 20 month granddaughter.
Posted by: Deb A | May 02, 2012 at 10:55 AM
Love your blog - this one especially put a smile on my face!
Posted by: Oriel | May 02, 2012 at 11:34 AM
You are so clever, Nicole! Ozzie is just the BEST. Good to see him again.
Posted by: Elaine S. | May 02, 2012 at 12:05 PM
OK Ozzie, come clean! I think you are behind this whole plot. So you just didn't want to share the lime light with that baby. I know, you were here first.
Posted by: Paula Zumaris | May 02, 2012 at 12:19 PM
It's a dogs life, isn't it, Ozzie! Hang in there -- your people love you and soon enough you'll be begging to play with Baby E!
Cheers!

Ozzie face is fine with me, he just gets more and more cute.
Posted by: Robyn Kirk | May 02, 2012 at 03:11 PM
Ozzie you are a darling! It's always fun to see you and here about your antics. Your pal Remy is pretty sweet too. Haven't heard much about your crabby sister, Sophie, for some time. Maybe she is living in a home where she is the only dog and can be queen.
Will miss seeing pics of Eva but safety is first.
Posted by: Annette | May 02, 2012 at 08:25 PM
Nicole, you are such fun! Great Ozzie post. I applaud your decision re: photos of little Eva, even though I'll miss seeing her happy little face. But caution is definitely wise these days, unfortunately. Looking forward to seeing your next quilt project!

Hey me
Happy to see your face again! I was wondering where you had been!
Looking forward to hearing and seeing you more.
Cheers
Linda

Happy to see Ozzie again! He's so adorable!
Posted by: Donna | May 03, 2012 at 05:11 AM
Love Ozzie. He's so cute. Sad about the little one, but I'm sure we will hear how she's doing, right?
Posted by: pam | May 03, 2012 at 09:02 AM
First of all, I LOVE the new shaggy look! He looks adorable. Secondly, the 'Happy Cap' sounds like the 'Cone of Shame' from the movie Up. Yeah, I wouldn't like that either. ;p
Give Mr. Ozzie a kiss and a hug from us. ;p
