Our baby!

Our baby= a bunny named, Bunny! She is the cutest. Well, most of the time! Rabbits are much more interesting than one would think! They way they communicate fascinates me. I read this article all about bunny language because I was just so gosh darn confused at the things she would do! 


1) Why does she keep nipping at me? She hates me!
Well turns out "nipping" isn't a bad thing. It's apart of grooming and rabbits nip each other but it doesn't hurt them because of their thick coats. Grooming is serious business in bunny world! If they groom or you groom them, it's like saying "You respect me, I respect you." 


2) Why is she running in circles around my legs?
This is a "I fancy you" sign and courting one in a way. Yes, it's time to get her spayed. 


3) Why doesn't she let me pet her all the time?
Stroking is like grooming which goes along with the respect rule. You can only begin grooming if one is invited to groom. So in other words... I can only cuddle up and pet her when she "lets" me which is usually shown if she comes over to me and nudges or puts her head close to the ground by me. It's very disrespectful to just start stroking her when not invited to do so.


4) Is she okay? She's running around "thumping?"
Thumping is their way of signaling "danger!" Danger can be anything from me dropping something in the kitchen or if I come around a corner unannounced. They are easily startled because they are prey in animal world. 


5) Why does she hop away from me and turn her back?
That's her way of saying "I don't like what you just did" or "You're annoying me." Rabbits love their freedom so if I'm following her around and trying to cuddle with her or play with her then she hops a few feet in front of me and then turns her back towards me. And I read this works doing it back to her as well. She tried to dig in the carpet so I said "No!" firmly and turned my back to her. She then came up to me a minute later and nudged me to stroke her which is like an apology.


They are a lot smarter than I ever imagined! It's been fun trying to communicate with her (I must look like a crazy person in my apartment if someone were to see me). She finally got warmed up to wearing her harness and leash and I've been taking her outside for little walks. There is this trail by my apartment complex. It's very nice and relaxing walking the trail in the evening.

I ran the trail tonight so I'm pretty sure I'll be sore tomorrow! I don't know why I decided to run it tonight, I do not like running! I went to see "Crazy Stupid Love" and I really enjoyed it! I went on a date with myself! Haha 

The BIG Move!

It was that time... to head to Washington! What an adventure it was. Not to mention, the longest drive! 17 hours!! Blah! Luckily, it was a very beautiful drive. Clean air, blue skies and green all around. Not the LA environment I am used to. After 13 hours of driving, a very interesting night in Portland and another four hours of driving later... I made it!! The only thing I was more excited about other than getting out of that car was finally seeing my husband! <3 We picked him, and drove straight to the apartment complex to sign the lease. My first apartment! And the place we would call home (for the time being). My hubby did a great job on finding a place. I love our apartment. We wasted no time! We went straight to Target for some essentials to fill up our very empty home. It's still needs a few things but it's a work in progress. I was just so happy to be off the floor by the third night of being here lol. We also didn't waste any time exploring our new turf! We headed to Seattle to see a Mariners game. 

And got us some matching Mariners shirts! And they won that game.. woohhoo!! 


We had a lovely fourth of July where we watched the fireworks over Union Lake. It was a spectacular show! I kept thinking it was the finale but it was just the show! 

 Yacht madness! It was crazy how many there were!

 We walked four miles to an ihop...

 Beautiful sunset..waiting to get dark for the show to start!

Tight squeeze! <3


Because my love was going to be gone out to sea for month, a few days before they were going to leave we decided to have a day together in Seattle.

 We went up to the stop of the Space Needle... here are some breath taking views from on top of the world! Well, on top of the city of Seattle anyway lol

 Union Lake

 The ocean

 Us, way up high!

 The only active volcano

 We got iced coffees and somehow, he managed to fling his against the glass and drop it and all of the coffee spilled out onto the floor. All of this happened on accident of course...but he was very upset because he only had a few sips! Poor baby!

The Space Needle! 


I miss my hubby so much! :( He's been gone two weeks now... two more to go! I am able to talk to him for the next four days so I am happy about that! But that last week and a half where I am unable to talk to him is going to be such a draggggg!!! Just like these first two weeks. It's been hard, lonely, and just plain BORING most of the time. I definitely need a hobby. Lol like...blogging more!
