I can't believe it's been so long since we spoke. Are the holidays hectic for you, too? Let me catch you up on what's been going on.

The month started off kind of slow.

I even had some time to catch up on my preening.

Looking this good takes a lot of work, you know?

Then all of the sudden, things changed.
"DID YOU HEAR, FLAPPER? BAD WEATHER IS COMING!" - Kozmo

"Oh no! We'd better eat everything we can before we get locked in our pens!"

"I think they're overreacting a bit, but I'm still going to eat all the worms I can find."

"Keep the treats coming! I'm shoveling them in as fast as I can!"

"I'm so full... I don't think I can stand up much longer."

"Iiiiiiiiii'm not reaaaady to stop siiiiinging yeeeet. Bad weaaaather go awaaaaay!"
Petunia, you'd better get to your pen, the storm is coming NOW.

"Wow! Mom was right. This IS some storm!"

"The next morning we had crunchy stuff all over the ground. It was kind of cold on my toes but fun to eat!"

"Mom? Will you run me a hot bath? I'm cold!"
You got it, O'Malley.

"Oooh this is so nice. Thanks, Mom!"

Splasha splasha.

"When is it going to be MY turn?"

"Mom? Will you wash my back?"
Sure, O'Malley. Let me get the loufa.

"Finally! Ooooh it's still nice and warm."

"I'm next!"

"On days when it is super cold and rainy, I sleep inside to warm up."

"Lately, the POWER keeps going out and it's super windy! Mom? Can we eat treats in the dark?"
We'll try, Flapper.

"All the bad weather and cold left me with a sore keel and Kozmo with a bum leg, so we had to go to THE VET. It was Kozmo's first time so he was kind of a baby."

"Don't let them give me any shots, okay Mom?"
We'll see, Flapper.

"Get ready, Kozzy. You're next!"

"NO WAY! I'M BUSTING OUT OF HERE!"

"We're both feeling much better now. Kozmo still limps a little when it gets cold, and I need to stay on really soft ground so I don't hurt my keel. Mom's blankets and designer bath towels work just great."

"So now that you're up to date, I'm going to take a nap. Happy Holidayzzzzzzzz zzzzzzz."
