Raven and Cicero

Mommy has a lovely friend named Raven who she knows from Cavalier Connection. Raven is mommy to a tri boy named Cicero who is Aidan's long lost twin. The two of them look so alike and here is an example.

Here is a picture of Aidan's legs


Here is a picture of Cicero's


They both share the black leggings look Mommy calls it as the back of their legs are completely black.

Whats funny is Cicero is the reason why Aidan has the blue Spring Puppia. Mommy loved the way it looked on Cicero she had to have one for her little boy too!

Here is Cicero modeling his Puppia

And here is Aidan modeling his


So anyways a few weeks ago Raven posted about this beautiful pillow case she had made for Cicero.


Mommy was so amazed that Raven made that herself and commented to Cicero's Mommy. Well today in the mail Ellie and Aidan both received their very own pillow cases hand made by Raven herself. Mommy promptly stuffed them with a pillow and took these pictures.

Aidan's pillow

Look at the stitch work


Ellie's pillow

And she even personalized them!



I tried to get the pups to take pictures on them but they were too busy playing!



I eventually got Ellie to settle on hers


And Aidan felt left out so he jumped on too


After dinner Ill try to get then on Aidan's.

Look how happy Ellie is with her new pillow!!!!!!


Thank you so much Raven and Cicero! We love them and really think you should go into business or something!!! Can we hire you to make our throw pillows for our new couch?!?!?

Springfield

Mommy went to the CKCSC show in Springfield these past 3 days. She was in Cavalier Heaven!!! Ellie and Aidan did not attend as they have an upper respiratory cough and are on anti-biotics and cough meds which make them a bit woozy and Mommy thought it was best they stay home. They will go to York in Nov as lots of people Mommy knows were excited to hear about Ellie's new brother and can't wait to meet him.

Mommy met a friend from Cavalier Connection at the show. She brought her adorable 5 month old pup Luke. He was such a hit at the show. Everyone had to come see the puppy!!!


Mommy also got to meet and see some of the rescue people she knows as well as see some of the rescue pups that are featured on the website.

Bonnie and Teddy from Cavalier Rescue USA.

Whats really neat is on Saturday at the show Mommy met up with a lady she had met at PetSmart months ago when Ellie was going to puppy class. She has a beautiful B/T and lives in the town where Mommy grew up. Best of all she is most likely adopting her second Cavalier from Cavalier Rescue (Boots) Mommy and her hope to set up a play date really soon!

And most exciting of all is that Ellie's Daddy was at the show! Ellie's Daddy is from Georgia so Mommy was so excited to finally see him in person. On Saturday he did very well at the show winning Best Blenheim and Reserve Best Winner if Mommy remembers correctly (and marked her program correctly). Mommy does see a little of Ellie in her Daddy but Mommy might be biased too ;)

Mini Photoshoot

Mommy took Aidan and Ellie for a photoshoot. We were suppose to go to the beach but the weather wasn't good for it so we went to a small local park. It started to rain almost immediately so we only got to take pictures for like 20 minutes but still got some lovely shots of the babies. We will be going again next week hopefully to the beach but Mommy is quite happy with these as it is.

Tuffies

Mommy saw someone post today on Cavalier Connection about tough toys. Ellie especially is a monster when it comes to stuffed toys. She singlehandedly destroyed all 17 of her stuffed toys in a matter of months which left her with none as she couldn't be trusted. Tuffies are soft toys but are rated on their tuffness on a numerical scale from 1-10. Apparently the seven layers is part of the tuffies secrets.


Well they were having a blow out sale and were selling 3 toys for $6 which is supposedly a $45 value. Mommy figured that these new tuff toys were worth a shot and wanted to see how they stood up to the Ellie Monster as well so she ordered them. Shipping was more then the toys but $14 for 3 toys wasn't a bad deal either.


So Aidan and Ellie are receiving 1 yellow junior ring with the tuffness rating of 7, 1 junior red log tuffness rating 5, and 1 junior blue fish tuffness rating 6. We shall see how they stand up to the 2 quality control officers and if the ring with the highest rating outlasts the other two. If these toys end up holding up Aidan and Ellie might get more. They are pricey but if they hold up it might be worth it. We shall see.
