A note to Roo

Tigger wrote this to Roo today and I approve it and thought it should be posted to the blog to put more pressure on her. 

Dear Roo the slacker who has been shamelessly ignoring your family who is kinda sorta in need to [Baby Celery] pictures*.

Your family hasn't had an update or pictures in 3 DAYS yet [your robot team] gets a good luck email?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!? What's wrong with this picture?????????????????? Hint: the part about your family hasn't had an update or [Baby Celery] pictures in 3 DAYS. When you replied to an email I sent you yesterday you wrote: Let me grab my camera and put the [Baby Celery] pictures I took today on my computer.  I shall then email you the pictures. :)

These pictures never materialized. We are not amused. Nabby is threatening you with the curse of the Nabbys if you do not SEND US AN UPDATE WITH AT LEAST 25 [Baby Celery] PICTURES. Today.
Love you**,

Tigger
* And oh, star, kinda misses you too and would maybe like to know what thou hast been up to. And if we have to see pictures of you too that would be acceptable.
** Even if you are a slacker who can't send her family much needed *** [Baby Celery] pictures.
***If I fail all of my finals because of an extreme [Baby Celery] picture deficiency, we shall all know who to blame...

Thanks Tigger. Very well stated. Now a note from me, Rosie. "Dear Roo we need updates. If you don't send an update soon I will call Squawky Puppy and get him to report on your activities. Also because you have been slackin in the BC picture department I will just have to re-post some from when he was here. Love ya! Rosie."

Somebody likes his faithful guard Rosie.

First class crib gymmer.

Maybe Roo hasn't sent an update or pictures because her brain is addled from a deficiency of Rosie cuteness?If so this picture should help.

Sorry these are all previously published pictures. If Roo would send us some new ones... *AHEM*

EDITED TO ADD: Well look at that! It WORKED!!!!!!SHE SENT ME SOME NEW PICTURES!!!!!!!
Of course now blogspot won't let me upload any new pictures. Bah!Sorry Roo for the  "base attack on my character" to quote you, but sometimes you have to be firm with Roos.

All grown up

Today my favorite Roo turns 18!!!!!!!!! Hard to believe isn't it? Seems like just yesterday she was 11 and I was a puppy...

Me 'n' Roo

What a cute Roo!

Almost as cute as Squawky Puppy..

Since Roo is away visiting the Celeries, here are some special messages to her from the family.

From me (Rosie) : I love Roo! She's the best roo in the world and she is great at playing with me. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Roo and me play stick.

I homeschool Roo.

Roo appreciates a tootie like mine.

Roo is good at walking me.

 From Tigger : Roo is the very best little sister in the World. I love you lots Roo and miss you while you're away. And can't believe that you're *gasp* 18!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where does time go? I remember when you were born. Hope your birthday is great, and I'm going to make you a tasty cake or something. And then we'll eat it all up before you get home. ;) Anyway, thanks for being one the of most special birthday presents ever and for being my pal.

Cows. Me and Roo like cows.

Spot the Roo

If she's 99, that makes Tigger 86, and me Chief.

Upon occaison her sense of style leaves something to be desired...

She's clever at making sheeps.

And cows.

And at drawing cows.

From Kanga:
Hi RooRoo,Hope you are having a fabulous 18th birthday trip!We miss having you here but are glad you have the chance to be with your Celery family.You are a wonderful daughter!Many years!

Roo loves me.

She's good with babies.

And at making cakes.

Did I mention she makes good cakes?

Hmm, she walks just like Daddy does, at least in this picture!

From OWL: HI ROO!  We miss you a lot.  We're glad you are having such a nice time in the land of the elves for your birthday.  You are a real blessing and we can't wait till you get back home.  Happy Birthday, and lots of love!! (PS - KK, BSC writes - Happee Berthdae and menny happee reeterns!)

Roo does fun stuff with me.

From Baby Celery: Happy Birthday Auntie Roo!!! You're AWESOME and I love you lots and lots.

Roo is an excellent aunty to Baby Celery.

From the adult Celeries: It's hard to believe that Baby Roo is all grown up... We're really enjoying having you around, and you're a very special little sister. Happy Birthday and God grant you many many years!!!

Because no post is complete without me showing of my belly.

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WWFN!

ROSIE!!!!!!

Mopey

I've had a mopey day. The Celeries have all left and they took Roo with them. The nerve! Then, the promised beautiful, happy, snowy time turned into the not so beautiful euphemistically termed "wintry mix", which is just code for rain/sleet/35 degree weather. hmmph!

What a Rosie when her favorite Celeries and Roo abandon her and the weather is foul:

 And a slightly happier picture. Sun bathing in the front yard in the spring.

A Lab Named Dory Strikes Again

So, you may remember this post about a certain pesky lab who's trying to steal my Tigger away from me.  There are new developments regarding her.
Now, you see, Roo is also doing Chemistry this year, and she has some experiments she has to do. So Owl set up a chem lab area in the basement.

The lab bench, aka Roo's ex- desk

The chemicals (yes, some of them are semi- dangerous. That's why they invented safety glasses.)

The back of the chemical box and the rest of the supplies.

I had the brilliant idea that if Roo can do experimental chemistry in the basement, so can Tigger. And then she could do what she loves without visiting Dory.

But then, something distressing happened. Owl and Roo were doing chemistry experiments in the basement, and they came up with a folded up paper addressed to Tigger, and noted as a secret message. It also had the instructions to "1. Unfold 2. Blow with hairdryer."

So, Tigger came home, and followed the instructions.

This is what she saw:

It says "Rosie is the best. ~Dory"

DORY IS NOW LIVING IN OUR BASEMENT!! TIGGER, HOW DID YOU SNEAK HER PAST ME?!!!!!!!!!

WWFN,

ROSIE THE INDIGNANT

Professoressa Rosa

So, Roo was working on her anatomy, and got up to get a drink of water. While she was in the kitchen, she remembered that she had been planning on cleaning it. She worked on it for a bit, and decided to return to the salt mines of A+P. She had been sitting on my sofa doing her work while I looked out the front door, and she came back to this:

Who would've thunk that an anatomy and physiology book would be such a comfy cushion?

XO,

My Girls

(Be sure to sing the song "My Girl" while reading this)
My girls are pretty wonderful.  They take very good care of me every day of my life. They feed me, and take ticks off of me.  They make sure that I'm well groomed and attractive.  They teach me new tricks so I won't get bored. They give me treats, and lots of pats and love. Don't you wish you had girls as amazing as mine?

My girls (and boy;))

What can make me feel this way?

My girls!

Getting bathed by my girls

My girls!

who gets me to pull my cart?

my girls!

getting fed by my girls

my girls

Getting dirt on my girls

                                               

MY GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lots of love to all,

Rosie
