We are tired!

Yes, my brother, sister and I are too tired for words!!!

My picture in the NYT website

Yes, my friends, I am finally famous and my picture is on the Lens blog of the New York Times. After terrorizing my Mom to participate, she finally got her ducks in a row and took at picture of moi at 10AM on Sunday, May 2. Then she uploaded it to the website and now here I am in all my pug glory. I also made sure all my favorite stuffed animals were in the picture. It was a lot of work to bring them all because every time my brother Chopper sees me carrying one, he wants to steal it from me--what a stinker!!!

Chopper is not in the picture as you can obviously see, I don't know in which pillow he was crashing. And my sister Stella was sleeping in her bed in our parents' room. Only I followed my Mom faithfully around the house and stayed with her while she graded some of her economics students' papers.

Finally the grading is over and Mom has more time to take us walking and rub our bellies, necks and ears.

Three happy pugs...

Me (Alf), Stella and Olive!

Mom thinks I'm chubby!!!

And she is going to start giving me less food and I probably will get smaller treats. Mom says that she is going to cut those treats that I get for giving moral support to Stella when she goes to the bathroom outside. But I don't understand why I am being punished if I am being kind to my sister! Plus, I go on walks every day--my nails (and my feet) are so worn out from my walks that the ladies at the vet thought that I was chewing them!!!

Humans are too messed up...
