Hey! I'm NO EWOK!

So, Mah and Pappy have finally lost it. (well, they actuallly lost it long ago but...) They are laboring under the impression that I am no longer a baby but an Ewok. Their descent into nerdom both amuses and frightens me.












Some day I'll win an Oscar
for the most talented baby of all.
But currently there is no category
that can begin to take in all
the talented, lovely things I do
especially when I make a poo.
It smells like cookies.
If you like cookies that smell like poo.

Girls gone wild!

Ooooweee. I had a wild night last night. Mah and Pappy took me to Manhattan to see Cousin Sean. He was in town visiting magazines. During dinner I started to cry. Normally I'll nurse and feel better but NOT THIS TIME! I couldn't stop crying. I cried and cried and wailed and wailed. I just was a mess. It appears other bald girls have had rough times lately too.


BTW, Once I got home, I was just fine.


We are girls gone wild.
Britney and Louise party.
Then we regret it.

Swaddle me please!

Oh, I sure did sleep well last night. I was swaddled up nice and snug, just like I like it. What does that wacky Dr. know anyway? Mah can just make me a giant swaddle blanket when I outgrow this one. Remember this picture of me when I was a tiny baby?

There once was a Brooklyn baby
who (unlike raccoons with rabies)
liked to sleep all night
swaddled up tight.
That little papoose of a baby.

Sunny day

Today was a super sunnny day. Mah took me out for a nice long stroll. We saw our friends Margaret, Emily, and Baby Henry at the playground. It might snow tomorrow.

Even little me
feels the hurried press of days.
Tomorrow brings snow.

So... I've been visiting friends out on Long Island

Hmmm.... at least they haven't caught me yet!

Rabid raccoon found in Nassau

A raccoon found earlier this month in Kings Point has been confirmed as the first case this year of rabies in a raccoon in Nassau County, county health officials said Wednesday.

The animal was found on Feb. 6 and sent to a state health department rabies laboratory in western New York for testing, county health department spokeswoman Cynthia Brown said.

"We test and collect over 500 animals a year -- opossums, bats, raccoons -- that are acting strangely," she said.

Last year 17 raccoons were found to be rabid in Nassau County; overall 64 have been found there since August of 2004, according to the county health department.

In Suffolk, a dead raccoon spotted in Lloyd Harbor last month was found to have rabies; it was the sixth such case in Suffolk since last March.

Nassau health officials cautioned residents not to approach or try to capture wild animals or cats and dogs that are acting strangely.

If you are bitten, scratched or have had other contact with such animals, seek medical attention immediately and contact the department of health.

To report a dead or strange-acting raccoon to the Nassau County health department, call 516-571-2290 on weekdays or 516-742-6154 on nights, weekends and holidays.

My friend, Mr. Pig

Today I emailed my friend Chia-Chien. I wanted her to clear up some mysteries surrounding this Lunar New Year. Here is our correspondence:

Dear Chia Chien,

Tell your pig-man friend a "Happy Lunar New Year" from me. I want to
know, what is the difference between a regular year of the pig and
a year of the GOLDEN pig??? I am a baby and I have no idea. Does this
mean that the pig-man will be especially lucky in taking out my
Pappy's intestines this year?

Do you like my good luck scroll?

Peace out,
Baby Louise

Dear Louise,
To answer your Piggy questions…..
There is no difference between regular year of pig and golden year of pig.. haha..
You and your family will be very lucky for whole Piggy year. Because Mr. Pig will protect you!

Louise, I love your good luck scroll! You look so cute on the Picture. I guess you really love that blue chair, you always take pic on that chair.
hehe… I have your picture now…. you will be one of Mr. Pig’s best friend soon…

Happy New Year!

Rice is nice (but not Condi)

So, guess what I tried for the first time this weekend???? Rice cereal! Yeah, now I finally get to eat food with the big people. After drooling over Mah and Pappy's dim sum this weekend they finally relented and fed me some food. I tried my first bite of cereal on Sunday and I LOVED it! I am now eating cereal and drinking from my special cuppy when Mah and Pappy eat meals. I feel so special and big.

Hey, Mah says the weather is going to be warmer today. All the way up in the 40's. Woohoo-goo! A perfect day for lunch out with my baby friends. Yeah, it's warming up... just like the '08 Presidential race. Hmmm.... I'm basing my support on one question - "Who will be the best President for babies?". Obama definitely has the easiest name to say...BaMa. But, I do like Edwards' universal healthcare proposals. Goo.

The wind smells of Spring
and I keep on eating.
Bird songs it will bring
and still I keep on eating.
Winter's cold is fleeting
and I am growing larger.
Just like my New Year's greeting,
I will grow longer, taller.
I'll grow bigger and wiser.

My New Year Message

Goo... and eat some Moogoo gai pan!

A new week... a new website

Well, hello there! As you can see, I've followed my friends Cali and Baila to blogger.com. Look Grammy, you can comment on my posts now! I've had a busy couple of days AND.... Pappy's been home with me the whole time! I had a special special weekend. I visited Chinatown and got a good luck scroll painted in my honor. It wishes that I grow big and tall in the new Year. Hah... like I need any help in that category! I weighed in at 18 lbs, 3 oz at my visit to the "vet" this week. Yeeks!

I was born a dog
but this is a year for pigs...
like our president.
