It's me and Louis in our stroller and our new brother Rocco!

It has been well over a year since I blogged!  My mom got super busy with this non-profit she started called Fed Up Inc.!  Fed Up Inc. educates youth about body image, self esteem and healthy living.  She empower youth to shift cultural focus from negative body image and diets to healthy living at every size.  She is on a mission people!

So in the meantime we have had a lot of fun since I last blogged.  We moved to Pasadena to live with my cousin Rocco.  He is 110 pound Bouvier de Flandres.  He is 10 and gets super crabby because he has arthritis and was an only child for most of his life.  He got super icky with me and my bro Louis and BIT both of us.  THANKS Rocco!  My mom took good care of us though and made Rocco see a trainer.  He is way better now.  He has to take Xanax to keep his anxiety under control.

Anyway, his mom and dad gave him to us!  So I have a new brother now.  I mean he isn’t a cousin because he lives here full time!  We are all getting along for the most part.  But he needs baths a lot more than me and Louis and he takes up the ENTIRE back seat in our car when we go places.  He snores really loudly and gives my mom “bear hugs” which are so weird.  He rubs his giant head up against her and almost knocks her down.

Our Aunt Michelle also got us a stroller which we LOVE because we can stay safely away from Rocco.  It also helps all of us on our long walks!  Some of us like to get lazy after a block or so (ah hem).  Rocco got his own stroller as well!  We will post about that later.  Right now it is used as Louis’ crib because Rocco is a BIG dog and mom has trouble pushing him IN the stroller.  Hello they are the same size (almost).

Anyway, we are super excited to start the new year and want to blog more.

See ya later!

Me and my mom- Go Hoyas!

Hello friends and fans!

We have been super busy over here in LA at the beach working on mommy’s new charity Fed Up Inc.  This non-profit formed by our mom Bridget Loves educates young people on body image, self esteem and healthy living.  Cool right?

So since she is busy with that Barney’s Bling is just chilling out.  And she hasn’t helped me write to you in a long time!

Anyway, I just wanted to check in.  We are having a major June Gloom foggy/cloudy yucky summer at the beach.  Looking forward to fall when the weather in SoCal is magical.

We are working on a new collection and a revamp for Barney’s Bling that will be launching in 2011.  It is going to be a more accessible moderately priced line that everyone can afford;)

Missed you and love you!

Barney

Dear fans,

Please forgive me.  I have been on holiday for awhile now.   Life is good.  I have been watching a lot of NCIS LA- man I love LL Cool Jay and napping.

Mommy has been busy writing.  She is working on two new books.  I know she is always on those stupid laptops.  And the walks on the beach have been less frequent, as it totally rained all last week.  And you know how we hate rain.

In other news we are totally into watching Intervention and Celebrity Rehab 3.  And have worn out not one but TWO cashmere sweaters this season!

Louis is being a brat as always.  Barking for hours non-stop and totally smearing the windows in the office.  He just won’t stop jumping on the glass trying to break free and bark for everyone to hear.  He was sick a few weeks ago and mommy took him to the vet.  He freaking jumped up and ran around the room when we got there.  The idiot was faking!  Mom was pissed because we had to pay $100.  He did NOT get any treats after that vet visit.

Okay we gotta go.  The blackberry is blowing up and honestly I want to watch my shows.  Millionaire Matchmaker Season 3.  Awesome!

Where has the time gone?  My mommy, Louis and I have been uber busy this Fall.  And I just realized we haven’t blogged in ages.  So what is new with us?   Hmmm where to begin?

Well Louis was a duck for Halloween, I got to be a Vet AND a Tuxedo man (b/c I am spoiled).  But mommy was having major issues downloading the photos and right now they are stuck in an Adobe format thingee in Photoshop on her PC.  Talk about scary!  We may have to dress up all over again to retake the pix.  But I promise you we looked great.  Mommy was a nurse;)

Otherwise, the neighborhood kids are back in school and we miss them so much!  They always took us for walks every morning and afternoon and now we are just stuck here running around on the balcony barking at the lucky dogs walking by.

We promise we won’t be absent so much in the future.  We love you all and look forward to chatting more.  And take note, our jewelry line has changed a bit.  We have sold out of a lot of the silver pieces in the bracelets, rings, earrings and decided to discontinue them.  Now it is back to mostly diamonds and gold…  And we pray the recession disappears soon- so we can celebrate our good fortune and love with diamonds!

As you all know we have been watching Milo for the month while his parents are in Europe. Today is the day he is supposed to go home.

Yesterday some exciting things happened. First our crazy cat lady neighbor had Milo held hostage for several hours. We had no idea, until we had to go for a long walk looking for him. And magically around 4 p.m. we saw him hop over the ten foot fence (um helped by the neighbor?).

He bit mommy in the middle of the night because he got the door open on his own. He was sleeping in his own room because of his biting issue.

Mommy went to pilates today covered in cat hair. The entire house is torn apart, all the furniture has it’s slipcovers removed and really anything removeable removed. There is a huge basket of laundry in the hall, all beds are stripped and piles of slightly peed on linens line the staircase.

WE love you Milo, but you gotta go home. This pee fest is too much for even me and Louis, who occasionally have an accident. Oh man.

Have a happy Sunday. We are hoping that as soon as Milo is gone, we will go back to being a small family of just three. Phew.

yummy!

So we are cat sitting for Milo. But Milo doesn’t like it here! Poor kitty cat! Today he was finally granted clearance to roam our neighborhood and instead of just having fun, he decided to climb a tree, chase some children and go in our neighbor’s house. And she isn’t nice- AT ALL. So now he is stuck back on the first floor of our home- alone. We feel awful, but can’t let him out due to the crazy neighbor.

Anyway, delightful times in the marina as usual. And we are starting to think we should make some kitty wear, or just let Milo wear our jewelry so he feels better!

I hope you are having an amazing summer!

seek and you shall find

Okay we haven’t been blogging a lot b/c it is the Summer Time and we are spending 99% of our time going to events, hanging out outside and just having fun!

But we wanted to let you see some more photos from our Amazing Photo Shoot at Otis & Lucy in Culver City.  Andy Sheng is the amazing photographer and his work is in high demand by discerning LA pet owners.  Ready to get your kids a photo shoot?  They deserve it!  Go see his work www.otisandlucy.com.

IN the meantime here is one of our favorite shots.  Mommy is getting it printed out to hang above our sofa.  Because we are her babies!

Louis and I are just kicking it here on the Fourth of July in our lovely waterfront home in LA baby!   So far today we have spent our time chasing the cat, Milo, we are sitting for the month.  We have eaten the cats food, he has eaten our food.  He scratched us, we scratched him.

And now we are watching bad tv until the marine layer burns off.  Mommy is going to a party a block away on the beach.  She is looking forward to it.  We are looking forward to having our Fourth of July treats. And we are all watching the fireworks display here on our own balcony at 9 p.m.  We told mom she has to be home by then because this is a full house and we are liable to rip it to shreds when the explosions start!

Anyhow, Happy Fourth of July.

our mom has all the fun...

Well for the past week we have had a babysitter. Her name is Tara and she is our cousin. She is a yoga guru and teaches a lot of celebrity clients. Because hello we live in LA! She also used to live in an Ashram in both India and upstate New York.

While she was here we meditated and were very mindful. When our insanely hyper mom got home she couldn’t figure out why we liked to lay in our bed and stare at the water for hours WITHOUT barking. It is because we are yogis MOM!

If you want to check out here classes, events or basic guru skills please review her website: www.taradeviyoga.com.

In the meantime her is our hyper-kinetic mom on the airplane to Oprah land. She got to sit in the cockpit with the captains and their hats….

sea and sand beach club

On the original 90210 Brandon Walsh worked at the Beach Club one summer.  When mommy moved to LA she started going to the “Beach Club”.  Actually the Beach branch of the Jonathan Club.  A membership social club (is that what you call it?).  In any case her friends told her this was where Brandon brought out the towels and umbrellas.  And she believed them because that is what they do at The Beach Club in real life.  But upon perusing the internet for little tidbits of info, it seems they actually filmed at the then closed Sand & Sea Club, which was part of the Hearst’s estate and then turned into a beach club.   We don’t get why it closed, only sort of kind of.  And we know the original Hearst home was killed in the Northridge Quake in 94 via a chimney that took the structure down.

This is a lot of info for me to relay.  So here is a photo of the original house (we think).  It has since been reopened as the Annenburg Community Beach Club.  That’s right the Heiress to the TV Guide Empire (or just TV Guide) put up the cashola to restore this club and turn it into a public spot for everyone to enjoy.

Hooray.  I will be a The Beach Club, but only because they serve you drinks on the water’s edge (yes they do).
