As you can see, I've outgrown the stocking. Remember last year when Daddy put me inside Jaelyn's stocking? I've had a fantastic first year with my new family! I love them all dearly and even though I still wonder what my fury siblings are doing these days, I have no thumbs to send them a Christmas card. Today is about spending time with family and loving each other. I'm certainly not feeling the love as my people are busy building lego sets, playing new DS games, and not sharing their candy with me. I tried to sneak a candy bar out of the stocking but Daddy caught me. Last year I was the big "Santa" gift for Jaelyn. This year she got an art set. I'm pretty sure I'm still the best gift she's ever gotten.
Go back and look at Christmas 2009. I was a little smaller than Sprinkles in that Christmas photo. Now look at me!! I'm huge! Must be all the rawhides and treats I get. Sprinkles still rules the roost here and puts me in my place when I'm acting too crazy. She is trying to teach me to be a good girl before she passes the reigns to me as the Alpha Female. She is very greedy and makes sure if I have a rawhide or toy she wants that she gets it. She will come right up to me and take it from my mouth! MEANIE! Then she teases me by eating MY big bone. Oh course, in the end, I eat both of our bones since I am a chewer and she is old. But it's the fact that I outweigh her by 40-50 lbs easily and she still has that much control.
