The Difference Between Dog Cookies & Toddler Cookies

By

Happy (belated) birthday to Murphy! Our little puglet turned 7 years old the other day and, of course, we needed to celebrate.

Before he even knew the plan, Murphy was already super pumped for a “ride in the car.”

We picked up Quinn early from daycare and then drove to Hingham.

We met Dada there and then walked over to Maggie’s Dog House for Murphy’s birthday surprise.

Remember Murphy’s Subaru adventure that was filmed there? If you haven’t watched this video yet, definitely check it out. It’s one of my favorite CNC projects to date. And, fun fact, Quinn was there for it too! I was nearly 3 months pregnant with him when it was filmed.

Back to our pug birthday adventures…

Q-Man was immediately drawn to the dog cookies at Maggie’s. They were so adorable and delicious-looking… even I wanted one!

I explained to Quinn that the cookies were dog cookies for Murphy, but I’m not sure he completely understood. Even still, he enjoyed selecting which cookies to buy. Donut cookie? Obviously.

Meanwhile, Murphy scoped out the other snack options in the store. Typical pug.

Once we purchased Murphy’s birthday treats, we headed home to give them to him.

At first, Quinn really liked telling Murphy to “sit” and then giving him a cookie.

But when we went to feed Murphy a second cookie, Quinn really wanted to eat it. I tried to explain the difference between dog cookies and kid cookies, but he just didn’t get it and broke down crying huge alligator tears. Poor sweet boy. I felt so bad.

Thankfully, Grandma had given Quinn a couple of owl sugar cookies for his pizza- and bird-themed party, so I gave him part of one to stop his tears.

All better. Grandma’s cookies save the day!

Happy birthday, Murphy!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
