Memories....

Its been over 2 years since we posted..... yesterday was 2 years since our maxi boy went to heaven to run to his hearts liking....

I had been thinking of restarting this for a long time now but I wanted to restart with a post about Max and I just could not get myself to do that till today.... even now, my hands are shaking but my eyes are not welling up. They are filled with happy memories of my first baby......

Its taken me 2 years to only be able to smile and laugh and reminisce about him without breaking down over him not being here with us to regale us all the time.... I absolutely miss everything about him - from the way he used to look every morning ( he used to wake up on the dot at 6 am, shake himself and wait for us to open the doors and let him out - the shake was out alarm.) to his head tilt ( he could spell 'walk' and if he heard us say anything about 'walk' or 'talk' or anything rhyming, his ears would perk up and he would do the head tilt to concentrate and figure out if we are indeed taking him for a walk!), the way he slowly and lavishly ate his food ( he used to be very particular and ate slowly whilst cocoa would be done in less than a minute!), the way he used to come and wipe his mouth on our clothes after having his milk ( we used to hate it then! ), the way he had a fixed bedtime and how he used to come and cozy up to us ( he never smelled like a dog - always, always smelled like a baby.... always.) ....... so so many memories.....

The important thing is that I can smile at them now and he will always make me happy whether is he here or not..... he always makes me smile now.... :-)

My sleepy guardian....

One of my Maxi's favourite spots in the house. Ever since he figured out that he can see the gate from this window, he has adopted that space for himself. We very rarely use our living room except when we have company so that whole room is his domain. He sleeps there, gives us the most pitious looks when we are going out and the most enthusiastic ones when we come back.....as dirty as he makes my seating, thats the last place i look when i leave home and the first when i get back.... :-)

The Accidental Litter....

When Tiny came home a little more than 2 months back, we didnt know what we were in store for!! Shes got a thin frame and we never suspected her to be pregnant till last week. And when we found out, we were really hoping that the father would be our son Max. With the puppies being born earlier than we had expected on the 21st of Nov'11, all our worries have been laid to rest!! Most of them look like Brindle boxers :-)
I cant get enough of the 9 little rats now!! I was really worried about the added responsibility especially with our baby but i look at them now and my heart melts......Little furballs of pure joy!!

Our first baby...

Maximillian Rai, our First baby, came and changed our life for ever, taught us what unconditional love is all about, changed us from a couple to a family, our house felt like home, oh I can keep going on...
