It’s been more than a few weeks since I last updated you on Lily and her adventures, and boy has she had some adventures recently. Lily is now 20 weeks old, learning news things everyday and getting into more and more mischief with each passing minute. This weeks obsession is shoes! Mine, Simon’s, anyone’s really, even better if there are no feet in them! I feel like I need eyes in the back of my head to watch what she is doing all the time and protect my lovely shoe collection!

First there was some snow, then a trip south for Christmas which included: 3 trips to the pub, 2 trips to the beach and new walks in new fields and lanes. Ooh and mustn’t forget Christmas dinner and loads of new people and dogs to meet. She had an absolute blast, and everyday she exhausted herself with her new antics and friends.

Then it was home again to our very quiet, in comparison, house. But then it snowed again and again! Lily loves the snow, and feels it’s her mission to eat it all and catch it all as it falls. Makes for some very amusing entertainment to pass those frustrating days of being snow bound that’s for sure.

Here are some images of her adventures, boy is she growing up quick now, and her snoring it getting really loud the bigger she gets. (She is currently raising the roof off my office!!)

First some Snow:

It sent her a little loony so there was lots of running around and jumping in the fresh snow:

We all love walking in fresh unmarked snow, Lily prefers a more energetic approach of jumping on it.

Then the eating began….

Brain Freeze!!!

We all know how that feels.

Who me? No I wasn’t eating anything! Honest!

First trip to the beach: (this is a puppy who will walk around puddles as she doesn’t like getting her feet wet)

oooh that water is moving….

Ahck! I got wet, shake it off quick!

This beach is different, that water is HUGE! and WET!!! I’m barking at it why isn’t it going away??  (Thanks Dad for getting wet with Lily! ))

I don’t think Lily is going to be a swimming dog, much preferring to stay clean and dry.  She is really growing up fast now, and her personality is starting to develop, with her making it very plain what she likes and doesn’t like. Not a morning girl either,  it means I have to be up early if I want to do any work undisturbed, or send her off to work with Simon. Failing that a long walks ensures a couple of hours peace and quiet while she sleeps it off, and if all that still doesn’t have any effect, then a nice juicy bone will keep her amused for hours.
