Claiming the Easter Basket

I'm no fool, she who claims the Easter basket claims the treats inside. We've had this doggy Easter basket for several years and it came filled with Easter stuffies. However, there is nothing saying that big bunny won't fill it with treats if I hold on to it.

Mom is still trying to figure out how I got my leg thought the hole. She made Dog Dad watch me when I got up to make sure I didn't hurt myself.

Easter Peeps

Mom saw these plush Peeps at Pet Smart when we were there getting our pictures taken last Saturday. Dog Dad mentioned we weren't playing much with our toys, but Mom said these were cute enough to use as decorations if we didn't play with them.

Mom has since been finding Peeps scattered around the house. She rarely sees us playing with them, but every night she puts them back in our day bed, but when she looks for them they are never there.

Easter Toys

Last week Mom dug out our Easter toys that she packs away with her Easter decorations. We have a rather large collection because Bailey loved these toys. Katy has been showing some interest, but I, Annie find them a little intimidating. They are rather loud and odd looking. However, I will say they make great pillows.

Easter Toys

Along with the bones we found in the Easter Eggs, the Easter Bunny brought us some new toys. The bunny frogs were cute, but the duck and the bunny have this amazing paper crinkling sound. We love attacking paper and Mom told the Easter Bunny this might distract us from real paper. She has discovered one problem. The sounds we make playing with these sound just like the sounds we make when we are getting into trouble with the real stuff. Bailey liked pulling the duck from the egg, until he realized he could not get the duck back inside its home. It does not seem to bother Katy, but while Bailey likes getting the toys out of puzzles, he gets upset when they do not go back where they belong on their own and he cannot manipulate them back in with paw and mouth. Mom came to his rescue, placing the duck back into his egg pouch.


As with all our holiday toys, these will head to the attic when the decorations go away, so Mom will not be dealing with the paper issue for long.
