Lounging with Dad

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

As we all know, I lead a very busy life. Because of this, I need to take frequent breaks… which I take whenever I want to, wherever I happen to be at the time.

Like, say, right next to dad’s desk, while he’s hard at work:

“Don’t mind me, dad, I’m just taking a quick nap. You keep working though.”

I Miss my Mummy

Friday, December 25th, 2009

I miss my mummy.

Gus says she’ll be home soon. I’ll be glad. (But mum – you’re never putting silly costumes on me again. EVER. At least, not if you want your shoes to remain unharmed… understand?)

The Buns of Christmas Present

Monday, December 21st, 2009

Once again, mum and dad made us play “dress up” for their Christmas cards this year.

And once again… we strongly disapprove.

The Buns of Christmas Past, Part 2

Monday, December 14th, 2009

After those first joyful Christmases, filled with treats, phone books, and wrapping paper to chew and shred, mum and dad somehow got it into their heads that they should send out Christmas cards… with pictures of us on the front.

Suffice to say, we do not approve of this.

The Buns of Christmas Past, Part 1

Monday, December 7th, 2009

Well, it’s starting to get on towards that time of year. So I thought I’d go back and remember some bunny Christmases from years past.

I can still remember my first Christmas  – I got lots of good presents back then.

Of course, I got to be the first one to sniff the presents (and chin them, so that they were all MINE!).

Oh yeah, and Betsy was there too – so it was the first Christmas for us both!

As you can expect, there were treats galore.

gus prefers what keith has

Though I had mastered the art of disapproval even then. Plus, I’d rather have what dad has… that looks like fun to chew on! (He never gave it to me to chew on.)

But the wrapping paper was kind of a present in itself, so it was OK.

Did I mention there were treats?

Yeah, that was a good Christmas.

Sleepy

Sunday, August 16th, 2009

This warm weather just makes me sleepy.

Or maybe it’s the cool, air-conditioned inside of the house that makes me sleepy?

Or maybe it’s just my extraordinarily busy lifestyle?

Anyway, it’s nap-time.

ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz……………..

I’m Not Lazy!!

Monday, June 1st, 2009

Dad says I’m a lazy bun – that all I do is lay around the house and sleep.

I don’t know what he’s talking about!

Ummm…

OK, so maybe I do sleep a bit… but it’s only natural. After all, I lead a very busy life! I need to rest often!

Right?

Tired

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

I’ve been so busy lately, chewing things, playing with Gus, trying to sneak into the bedroom… sometimes I just need to lay down and have a nap.

flopped betsy

Too bad that whenever I try to relax, I hear that little “beep-beep” of dad and his stupid camera!

Harumph!

Bad Table Manners?

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

Dad says I don’t seem to have very good  table manners.

I don’t know what he’s talking about. Besides, table manners don’t apply when you’re not at a table, obviously.
