Stupid wind!

What to do on a cold and windy day? First, I'm glad we aren't getting the bitter cold wind chills that my friends in Saskatchewan are battling! Sure hope this Arctic Vortex thingy turns around and marches right back to the North Pole!
My plan was to haul to the indoor arena today, but I didn't want to be outside at all and I'm sure the horses would have been edgy and not much fun to ride, so..... I just spent extra time with the puppies! They are 4 weeks old today, and starting to develop their personalities.
Looks like Chase and Quinn are debating whether to chew the toy, or try it on for size!
Shayla is having fun tickling their tummies:
and getting lots of cuddle time in- gotta enjoy them while they are still here, they will too soon be gone.
Everybody say "awwww!"

I introduced them to drinking water for the first time today. I'm pretty sure Tess doesn't produce enough milk for them now, they are getting big and growing so quickly now that they are on mash. Their teeth and claws are pretty sharp too, her belly looks like a battle zone!
What do well fed, happy pups do most of? They become huddleuppies!
Well the wind is shaking our home, the wood stove can't keep up so the furnace is on, and it's time for me to huddle up into my blankets!
Stay safe and warm everyone!

Yup, it's huddle time! LOL. They are adorable. It's cold here too - It's minus 23 here in Montana this morning where we live. The wind's supposed to blow too. Ugh.

Cold here too! What fun to see the new photos, you can almost see them grow. They are going to be great pups for whoever gets them. Loved that last photo...get huddlers! :)

Bah! That last picture is enough to warm me right up.

Yes, minus thirty eight on the thermometer this morning. We will see what happens tonight. :)

I think your title for this post is so suitable...that is so often how I feel about the wind. The cold, the hot, whatever...it is the wind that makes me crazy.

Those pup pups are too cute to boot. I feel like little creatures like that are like a good campfire, you can just stare n stare at 'em.

So very cute, I agree as little time outside today is the plan. I am in front of my fireplace too, but its electric not as nice but at least there is heat from it

Ha ha ha! Looks like the pup is laughing from having her tummy tickled! Been windy here to! Freezing cold out. Yuck!
Enjoy your babies. They are way too cute.
