Maggie's First Visit to the Dog Park

On Friday, Maggie finally got her last set of vaccinations and was given the all clear for walks and, most exciting, THE DOG PARK!!! Hoboken is a really dog friendly city with lots of dog parks throughout. This one is the closest - about a 5 minute walk from our place.

It has a big section within the fence, and then a smaller section for smaller dogs. Since no one was in the small section, we let Maggie get acclimated in there all by herself.

And then she made a friend on the other side of the fence...

Maggie's First Snow Day

Today was Maggie's first snow day! We got a good 5 or 6 inches throughout the day and had a BLAST watching Maggie explore!

And then some post-snow snuggling with a very tired pup!

Maggie's First Bath

Today was a big day! In anticipation of the holidays and Maggie being home for almost a month, we gave her her first bath today! She also got her ears cleaned and her nails clipped.

The before shot... Not so sure about this...

During...

And the after! Wet dog!

Maggie was a total trooper and got lots of delicious sweet potato treats for being such a good girl! After a good shaking off in the bathroom she was ready to go wreak havoc on the apartment again.

A Day of Firsts

Well today was a day of firsts for all of us!

Beth and Brian finally took showers for the first time since Maggie came home.

Maggie had her first rainy outing and got to know the dry-off towel very well.

And she also had her first visit to the vet!

She is a whopping 11 lb, 10 oz and in great health, although we were having trouble getting her to eat all of her food. But I think I solved the problem tonight - her bowl was too big for her. Once I dumped the food on the mat where her bowls are, she gobbled it all up.

Which led to one crazy dog...

Which led to naps...

Maggie: Day 2

Today was a loooooooong but fun day. We got Maggie into a better routine, alternating between her crate, outside to try for bathroom breaks, and inside for playtime. She did really well and is still cute as ever. We ended the day with a little snuggle time on the couch.

New Addition to the Family!

Today Brian and I welcomed a new member into our little Hoboken family... meet Maggie!

Maggie is our 7-week old Golden Retriever puppy who we just brought home!

She is really good at looking adorable.

So far she likes to play with us and her new toys...

Especially her blue dog...

She also likes taking naps...

And hanging out under the coffee table and Grandma's bench...

And snuggling with my rain boots.

We're working on the walking, but so far we've only made it between the 3 trees out front and a one-time big adventure around the corner of the building. Usually she just sits on the sidewalk and scratches.

Be prepared for many more posts about our adorable dog! Hopefully she's the inspiration that brings the blog back.

A fabulous fall day

Today our friends Jason and Lauren came over for football and pumpkin beer!

And Brian made homemade soft pretzels... They went great with the pear mustard we brought back from Italy!

1 down 4 to go

All done here at the Colonial in Boston. Show is down and packed up and on it's way to Minneapolis. We will meet it there on Monday. Now, we sleep. Later we eat. Then we sleep again.

Only 4 more stops for Beth and I. 4 load ins and 3 load outs are between us and normalcy!

Were we the last broadway to grace the stage at the Colonial? Only time will tell. But it was fun to close it down.
