I admit, this is probably the latest Monster Monday to date… just barely posted before midnight. We have a lot going on right now and Kev’s car decided that this weekend would be the perfect time to quit working. Which means that this week I will be waking up at 5a.m. to drive him to work. Awesome. Thank goodness for coffee. The early mornings have gotten me thinking… I really wish that corporate America would adopt afternoon naptime. I’ll bring my own mat… 

I’ve been a busy bee, but I am determined to have a new shot of each of my girls for next weeks edition. For today, we have a shot of Lucy during the snow… patiently waiting at the door to go back inside…

  • Christy - I love that shot! Look at the snow on her nose. Cute!

  • claire - that shot is adorable! your monster mondays are such a great idea because i bet they force you to keep shooting your own dogs. sometimes i’m good about it, but then other times it sort of goes by the wayside and i’ll realize i haven’t taken photos of my own dogs in weeks. bad, bad, bad.
    also, when did you get lucy? i think you got her after we got kinley, so your girls could still come around and be buddies! it really did take ours until just now to be that cuddly (so about 5 months).

  • sarah - she’s so stinkin’ cute!

Attention all bulldog owners and bulldog lovers… you do NOT want to miss this event. Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 18th, for the 7th Annual Mid-Atlantic Bullyfest!! Bullyfest is hosted by HeavenSent Bulldog Rescue and will be held in Marlton, New Jersey. I am THRILLED to be photographing this fabulous event. Over 80 bulldogs are expected to attend. Really, it doesn’t get much cuter than that! Admission is only $15 for adults, and $5 for children… bulldogs are admitted free. Admission includes unlimited food and beverages, goodie bags, a costume contest, a rescue parade, adoption information, a chance to meet the trainer, raffles (with the chance to win a gift certificate to April Ziegler Photography), auctions, and the return of the ever popular KISSING BOOTH! You better believe that I’ll be paying for a smooch from one of those smooshy-faced beauties.

Come out and support a great cause. I will have a table set up at Bullyfest to display some of my pet photography, so if you’re there please stop by and say Hi!

Lucy came home from an overnight trip to the vet yesterday, sans certain lady parts but with an interesting addtion… a CONE! This was unexpected since Chloe didn’t have to wear a cone after getting fixed or after her knee surgery. Looks like Lucy is not as good of a patient. They told Kev when he picked her up that she was quite a talker… which I take to mean that she screamed the entire time and they were oh so happy to see her go. And we are happy to have her home. Goofy cone and all…   

  • Christy - Still cute as ever! Look at that wet beard! haha
    I hope she has a speedy recovery.

  • Emilee - Aw, look at her little cone! I thought Olivia would be groggy and have a cone after her surgery, but nope! She was her normal, crazy self and never messed with her tummy at all. I hope Lucy recovers well! She’s adorable! 🙂

  • melissa - Aahh…the cone. We know the cone all too well over at our house. It looks like Lucy’s at least is not sticking out about 5 inches past her face – good luck!

  • claire - ohh, poor little lucy!

  • Becky Serpe - Its all fun and games until someone ends up in a cone. haha!

Sunday was quite an experience… my first session with three dogs. Two llasa apsos, Charlie and Lucy, and a yellow lab named Bentley. We had a fantastic time playing in the back yard and ended the session with all three dogs asleep on the couch.

Meet Lucy…

Charlie {and his mama}…

and Bentley…

  • Emilee - Aw, I love Bentley!

  • megan - april – thank you so much! i am looking forward to seeing the rest of the pictures of my babies! 🙂

  • claire - i love bentley, too! what a sweet face.

I noticed that our daffodils are blooming. Daffodils have always been my favorite. They are the first to bloom, lighting up the otherwise bleak garden and signalling that warm weather is very near. And they’re yellow… which simply makes me HAPPY! Here’s an image of our daffodils from last year…
