#SentimentalSaturday and #SweetSaturday: Camille At Five Months Old(!)

Has that time much passed? PS Don't worry--Reilly will (Yehovah willing) get a #SentimentalSunday and #SweetSunday blog entry for her five-year-five-month Gregorian birthday tomorrow (!)

(.כן; "אמא" / "דודה ניצקיה" היא זקנה)

#WoofWednesday and Somewhat Offbeat: Ringing the Bell and Barking Over Which "Momma" Can't Hear And/Or Has To Shout

"Reilly, stop!"
"Reilly, quiet!"

Reilly persisted in ringing the bell to indicate that (and night-owl "Momma" got the point that) she wanted to go "night nights" last night (and "Momma"'s trying to be less of a night owl is a work in progress), and there've been other times when she's rung the bell instead of bark—not to mention that at quite a few times when she's wanted to go outside to see someone or something, she's both rung the bell and barked!

As for the barking by itself, it's still an inappropriate behavior in which Reilly engages—with her often going as far as to bark with Camille when Camille's inappropriately barked (including this morning), notwithstanding that she as alphess should be setting a good example for her younger cousin and betess! The barking also frequently gets loud enough for "Momma"/"Auntie Nicole" to be unable to tell her bad-example-setting "dogter" and her furniece to be quiet, especially when they're barking simultaneously and cacophonically—and often to the point at which she can't hear over it!

Of course, what can "Momma"/"Auntie Nicole" do about it particularly if they don't listen to "Be quiet or get down [from their beds from which they look out of the family-room window]!" and "Be quiet!"? She doesn't have anyone (not counting "Mom-Mom" and "Auntie Michelle"/"Mimi" in this context at all) to roll them over or chase them when they try to run and keep barking or be a firmer and stronger voice than she can be (and not that "Mom-Mom" or "Auntie Michelle" will always roll them over when "Momma"/"Auntie Nicole" asks them to do so, anyway).

A Father's Day Reminder From Camille (PS Reilly Was Upstairs With "Mom-Mom")

PS Reilly herself is still without a human father, meanwhile 🙍.

PPS Reilly has nicknames such as "Rooboo".

She is jealous!

#WoofWednesday: More Of Reilly's Antics, Including Barking Inappropriately!

Incidentally, Reilly may have just barked in her sleep during her evening nap, unless "Momma" was hearing things. Anyway:

1. Speaking of barking, though, both Reilly and Camille really (so to speak) took up quite a bit of thinking room with their loud barks, and Reilly especially barked up a lot of thinking room!
2. As if barking inappropriately throughout the day wasn't and wouldn't be enough, running outside as "Mom-Mom" was coming back from having taken Camille to "go potty" apparently made a fine addition to the list of Reilly's Woof Wednesday antics! To be fair, though, Reilly did at least come back inside for a treat.
3. Reilly found another treat when "Mom-Mom" went back outside to garden, meanwhile, and this treat happened to be a treat which was actually a "nasty" which "Momma" had to lock the back door to get: a shredded cotton pad that she doesn't quite know how Reilly came by in the first place. Not wanting to be hit by the back door in case "Mom-Mom" decided to come in while "Momma" had to lay on the floor to get the pieces (since standing up and bending down to get them would've been quite unfeasible, especially if the door would've hit her while she was on her feet), "Momma" had to lock the back door briefly and risk locking "Mom-Mom" out of the house—and needlessly to say, she was not happy about it, and she even told Reilly (in terms in which Reilly could understand) that her IBS flares up when she stresses her out—and her acquisition of the cotton pad and shredding of it definitely caused her to have an IBS flareup.

There were other antics as well, though these three antics exemplify just how badly Reilly can behave! 

The Great Debate Continues, And #TuesdayTroubles Such As Reilly's Attempts To Jump Down When She's Supposed To Wait!

Incidentalmente, Camila es francesa—no puede evitarlo 😉

Hint: "Diecisiete" mean "Seventeen[th]".

"And Woof You Also"....Wait; What?

Reilly did not cooperate for many "Before" shots, by the way.

And one at which she's getting better at learning and mastering.

A Virtual Pesach Card From Reilly and Camille For Pesach 5779

We had only some of the karpas (celery) and betzim because the other food—even the matzah—isn't safe for puppies this year!

Reilly did get some of the matzah, though, when her "Momma" was putting matzah crumbs over her own meal for shulchan orech!

At least there was an alternative to the afikomen—a third of a salmon-and-sweet-potato treat (The matzah was gluten-free and had grape juice, and gluten-free at the behest of Auntie Michelle/Mimi).

Of course, Momma/Auntie Nicole had a hard time hiding the afikomen—we didn't help her by being impatient, the albe-benevolent stalkers that we are!

I, Camille, especially didn't help Auntie Nicole!

Meanwhile, she tricked us—she got us to pose for pictures as she ate karpas dipped in leftover brisket sauce and we watched her!

Reilly, though, did get part of a betzah later because Camille found the afikomen!  

Chag Pesach Same'ach v'Shabbat Shalom (even though Pesach doesn't begin until tomorrow night)!
