Memories

Lately I’ve been very very busy. Not the kind of busy where you have a mile long to-do list, but the kind of busy that just makes you want to drop everything and soak it all in. I’ve been very busy making memories with my family!

From my little sister’s first crawl (which not to brag, but she didn’t crawl towards mom and dad, no instead she crawled towards me!!), and sledding with my cousins and ponies – these are the memories that I’m going to treasure forever.

Family Memories

Yup, this one is totally for the scrapbook!

I hope you’ve been busy making memories too. Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

10 Reasons Why Dachshunds Rule

It’s come to my attention that some of you may not know why us Dachshunds are so super cool. So incase you were unaware, I’ve made this handy list as to why Dachshund Rule The World.

Oh The Places You Sleep: Vol. 11 with Ammo the Dachshund

  1. You don’t ever have to worry about freezing to death if you live with a Dachshund

Personal heating pad. Check. If you’re chilly, just grab a Dachshund, because we can put out some serious heat!

2. If rodents ever took over the World, your Dachshund would save you.

Honestly, we don’t even need an excuse like total World domination to justify a good old fashioned hunt down.

3. Your Dachshund will teach you to have the patience of a saint.

Us Dachshunds have our own agenda, and if we want to do something (or don’t want to do something), you better believe we won’t be listening to your commands.

4. You won’t need to waste your money on a shovel when you have a Dachshund.

Born to dig, that’s our motto. Just think of all the money you saved by not buying all those shovels!

5. Your floors, and tables, and pretty much any surface we can reach will be spotless.

Smell food. Will eat…by any means necessary. Enough said.

6. You’ll have a reason to smile every day when you share your home with a Dachshund.

We’re goofy, and silly, and never run out of ways to do something just totally ridiculous that will make you smile.

7. Our unique body shape inspires all kinds of art.

Seriously, just try shopping at Target without finding something with a Dachshund on it. We’re that cool.

8. We have no idea that we’re small.

If you always wanted a big dog, look no further. We Dachshunds believe we’re the biggest dogs of them all, and despite our size, we have no problem striking fear into the hearts of all the big dogs out there.

9. We have a distinct smell all our own.

Ah, the aroma of a Dachshund. It will grow on you.

10. We love our families something fierce.

Nothing can compare to the love that a Dachshund has for his family. And that my friends is why Dachshunds Rule!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: vol. 7

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 7

Well, my adorable buddy Miss P is now 7 months old! Don’t let her sweet little smile fool you….

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 7

..she knows how to get EXACTLY what she wants with her little pouty lip. It’s almost better than my sad puppy eyes. Almost.

I’ve taught her well.

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 7

In fact, I’ve taught her so well that I think she’s going to start crawling any day now! She’s a smarty pants, just like her big brother!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 7

Baby P and I are also working on her first word. I’m pretty sure it’s going to be “Ammmmo” but mom is trying to edge me out with “MaMa”. We shall see who wins.

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 7

And now we leave you with pouty lips and sad puppy eyes, because Baby P and I want some snacks! Feed us please!

The Princess’ Castle

It’s come to my attention that I never properly shared my new little sidekick’s bedroom. After all, it took mom and I a really long time to get it just right.

The Princess' Castle

So come on in, and welcome to the Princess’ Castle!

The Princess' Castle

This is the room where my sister’s dog crate resides. I still haven’t figured out why she hasn’t jumped out of it yet!

The Princess' Castle

Although I’m pretty sure it won’t be long before she breaks out of her crate at night, because the artwork above her is totally accurate. I’m also fairly confident in saying that she’s so fierce that her “bark” might even be louder than mine!

The Princess' Castle

Even if she does break out though, I’ll be right here waiting.

The Princess' Castle

Waiting to make sure she doesn’t touch my toys, or my dog bowl, or my favorite pillow on the couch.

The Princess' Castle

Yup, that’s definitely the face of a little sister that’s going to escape her dog crate. I knew it.

The Princess' Castle

Looks like we won’t be getting any sleep again tonight pony.

#andsomywatchbegins

So what did you think of my little sister’s castle? Do you think she’ll like how I decorated it (as you may notice there are MANY pictures of the one and only me in her bedroom)! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

 

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 6

I can hardly believe that it’s been 1/2 a year since Baby P was born! She’s growing up much too fast!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: vol. 6

While she’s now sitting up and eating real foods, and even attempting to crawl a little….there are some things that haven’t changed one bit…

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: vol. 6

…and that’s her love for her favorite puppy in the whole wide world, me! (She’s not even embarrassed to kiss me in front of the camera!) In fact she loves me so much that everytime she sees me I get greeted with a high pitched excited squeal. That or maybe she thinks my name is Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: vol. 6

We’re both already planning all of our Spring and Summer adventures…especially once she starts walking and I can show her all of my favorite groundhog holes. So much to do, so little time.

Happy 6 months Baby P! I’m so glad I get to be by your side while you grow up! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

Dog Toy or Baby Toy

Dog Toy or Baby Toy

Ever since Baby P showed up at my house the toy situation has gotten a little confusing. As in, how am I supposed to tell the difference between a baby toy and dog toy? That’s where you come in!

Dog Toy or Baby Toy

Can you help me decipher which one of these fine toys are dog toys and which are baby toys?

I loose sleep over this. Did I chew on Baby P’s favorite stuffed animal or did I bury the correct ball in the back yard? It’s enough to make you crazy!

Once you’ve made your guesses scroll on down to the bottom of the page to see if you got it right…..

If you guessed these toys were dog toys, then you are right!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol. 5

Time seems to be moving much too quickly, because Baby P is now 5 months old! Can you believe it?

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol 5

So much has changed since Little P first arrived home, and now she’s drooling and attempting to eat pretty much anything she can get her hands on. I’m so proud, I taught her well.

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol 5

She’s really taken a liking to me (what’s not to like, I’m the coolest dog ever), and I’m really starting to enjoy her giggly happy squeals when she sees me. In fact, I even get to claim credit for Baby P’s first TRUE belly laugh!

Adventures of Ammo + Baby P: Vol 5

Don’t grow up too fast Baby P, I still have lots of things about the World to teach you!

Christmas Memories

Christmas Memories

Well, Christmas at my house came and went, and it was a fantastic whirlwind of wrapping paper, family and plenty of fun! And since I know you don’t want to feel like you missed the fun, I decided to share a recap of all my adventures.

Christmas Memories

This year of course was extra special because I got to share my Christmas morning with my new little sister, Baby P.

Christmas Memories

I helped her open all her presents from Santa, and explained to her why we aren’t supposed to be super excited when we get socks in our stocking. (although I’m pretty sure that lecture when right over her head!)

Christmas Memories

And then I helped Baby P open a very interesting present….

Christmas Memories

….it was another me!!!

I wasn’t really sure how I felt about it at first. I mean was Santa trying to replace me?

Christmas Memories

But as the day went on I realized he wasn’t all that bad. I mean after all we now out number the babies in this house….which means when it comes to take a vote on whether we go to shopping at Petco vs. Babies R’ Us me and my little sidekick here will win every time!

Christmas Memories

Christmas morning at my house was full of wonderful memories. And in case you are wondering, yes, I got lots of presents from Santa!

Christmas Memories

Christmas didn’t end there though, because my family and I were off to celebrate with all of our extended family. We ate, exchanged gifts, and created even more memories.

Christmas Memories

And when my cousins got into town, you know things got crazy!

Christmas Memories

And that my friends, is another Christmas come and gone! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity

What about you? What was your favorite Christmas memory this year?

Happy Holidays

12 Days of Cheer! Merry Christmas from Ammo the Dachshund

Hitch up my sleigh! Because Santa is taking a little too long to get here, so I’m taking matters into my own hands!

Holiday Tidings

Baby P and I are going to take a little blogging break to enjoy some time with family until after the new year. Don’t worry, we’ll be back to share all the fun we had!

Happy Valentine's Day // Ammo the Dachshund

Before I head off on some holiday fun with my family, I wanted to say Thank You! Thank you for reading my blog, leaving me comments (which I do read all of them), and sharing in the love of all my fun. I never thought that 6 years later I would still be writing this blog for all of you! It’s been a wild adventure, and I’m glad you’ve been here to share in all of it.

Here’s to 2017! Yippee! Ammo the Dachshund // Blog Signature // Celebrity
