Poor Chloe

As most of you probably know, we have a little pekingese-poodle named Chloe. Brandon and I got her for my birthday right after we got married back in 2005. She was the princess of the house and our baby, until Christian arrived last year. Since then she has become the dog and has not been too fond of the little person who stole all of mommy and daddy's attention away from her. Well once Christian got on table food, she became his new best friend. He loves to drop food down to her and laugh as she eats it. But other than when he is eating, she could really care less about Christian or what he is doing.

Christian is getting bigger now, and RUNS around the house. One of his favorite things to do is chase Chloe around the house trying to kick her. He thinks it's hilarious when she snaps at him, so he does things all the time to make her mad. We have shown him how to nicely pet her and he gives her hugs and kisses, but I still think he likes to torment her. He has this red, plastic baseball bat that he plays with in the house, and has recently become very good at swinging it (which he bats left handed apparently...just fyi). He has been pretty good not to break anything in the house so far, but today he almost broke the dog! This boy of mine is extremely strong, and when he swings that bat there is some force behind it! Poor little Chloe didn't even know what happened. She was just walking by when he was mid-swing and he nailed her right in the face. She tucked her head down to the floor, then when she tried to walk it off her front end and back end seemed to be going two different directions. She proceeded to hide behind Brandon's feet, and when he picked her up she was shaking like crazy. Brandon and I are pretty sure that he gave her a "doggie concussion." Needless to say I took the bat away from Christian for the rest of the day to keep Chloe from having a nervous breakdown. Poor little Chloe! She is fine now, but I'm sure that when I give the bat back to Christian, she will go find a spot to hide.  

Many Blessings,
