I must be cooking too many chili & cornbread meals or I'm using way too much butter & sugar....

Because someone around here is getting a little...let's say...."LUMPY." 

And for once I'm not talking about me!

Johnny has gained about 4 1/2 pounds. Thank God it's of pure cuteness.

It's a little family secret that Johnny is actually a Kangaroo Mama to one of our pups.

Miss Peanut rides around in Johnny's 'pouch' every morning, it's so sweet.

The two of them have a little routine where they wake up at 5 a.m. and Peanut takes her place in his kangaroo pouch. Johnny carries her around with him for about 30 minutes until he has to go jump in the shower.

On weekends he carries her around for about an hour and a half. It's adorable! I love it.

Naturally, these photos were taken on a weekend because I have a little routine of NOT being awake at 5 a.m.  Ever.

 We should make Peanut put some quarters in this ride & contribute around here more.

Look at that grumpy face as he tries to kick her out of his Kanga pouch.

C'mon, Peanut. Time to get out. Scoot!

Daaaaaaddy! No! Let me sleeeeeep!!

John, be strong. It's you against a 4 1/2 pound Chihuahua. You show her who's boss!

I'm not leaving and you can't make me.

Yup. We know who won this fight.
