I have had an exciting week. Yesterday I went to the park with my mom and my sister, Hannah. I was playing with Hannah and then Mom gave me a treat. All of a sudden I was coughing and couldn't breathe as good as usual, and I got kind of sick. Mom took us home from the park and tried to talk to some people on that box thing that she holds up to her ear. Hannah says it's called a phone. Anyway, then we got in the car and went to a new place that I had never been before. There was a man there who was really nice to me and he put me on a table to take a picture of me. When I got off the table, I was all better and I didn't have to cough anymore. That man said I had a treat stuck at the front of my trachea and he thought that when he lifted me off that table it probably came loose and I swallowed it the right way. Last night I got to sleep on the big bed with Mom and Dad and that was fun. I was very good and slept the whole night. I hope they let me sleep there all the time.

I went to the vet yesterday and I had a pretty good time. I got some shots, but that's okay. Hannah said she used to have to get shots and it made her sleepy, but I always feel fine. I weighed in at about 42 pounds yesterday. Mom and Dad aren't sure why I am growing so fast, but the vet thought I looked okay- he just thinks I am going to be big. Yah! Anyway, after we left the vet, we went to a big place that had lots of good smells. I think it was called Pets Are Smart. I got to pick out a toy and I also got to meet a lot of other dogs and people. It was fun and I hope we get to go back. I will have to tell Hannah about it, I wonder if she's ever been there?

Also, Mom keeps telling me that I am going to get to meet Mom's mom and Mom's dad soon. I wonder who they are. I am sure that I will like them because Hannah seems to be looking forward to seeing them too.
