Happy Easter 2012

Hi everyone. It has been a long time since I updated you. So I decided to update you on the biggest bunny day of the year. Happy Easter....or Hoppy Bunny Day!

There are dozens upon dozens of children in my neighborhood, so the Big Bunny asked me to assist him with delivering eggs and presents this year. It is always an honor to work for the Big Bunny. But I must tell you, I am exhausted!

However, when I got back from my bunny duties, I was greeted by a HUGE basket from Big Bunny himself. How cool is that?

I was so shocked that at first I wasn't sure this was really for me.


But as soon as Mom assured me this was truly for me, I decided to inspect the contents. Forgive me, but I am too busy checking this out to pay attention to the camera.


First inspection is over....I'm jumping right in!

Did you notice that Big Bunny gave me a stuffed bunny? I've gotten one every year from Big Bunny. Mom thought it would be fun to take a photo of me with my growing bunny collection. Who's the most handsome bunny in this picture?!


Happy Easter!


Until next time.....

I'm Four Today

Greetings everyone. I know it has been awhile since I updated you. I am finally living in my new house with both my parents. It has been a crazy year. So why not celebrate with a fantastic birthday bash?

That's right, I am FOUR years old today.

I am enjoying my new house so much that I nearly forgot my birthday was coming until Mom asked me what I wanted this year. I told her nothing special. I also specifically said NO HATS!

So what did I get? A HUGE cake, decorations, and a HAT! Imagine that my Mom didn't listen to either comment (I suppose this is what all bunny Moms do on birthdays).

Since my Mom went through the effort of decorating my new room and making me a cake, I wore the hat (for 10 seconds, maybe less). A bun's gotta do what a bun's gotta do to get to the good stuff: CAKE!

Here you can see my room decoration. Pretty cool, if I don't say so myself.

Here are a few photos of my custom-baked oat/carrot/banana/cilantro cake. YUMMY!

Okay Mom...I promise I will sit patiently for a few seconds...but honestly, I want my cake NOW!

It's cake time!

I can't get enough of this cake! And surprisingly, my Mom didn't care that I had my feet on the plate.

Did I mention that I REALLY like cake?

I think I have officially conquered another birthday, don't you?

Now if you will excuse me, I must get back to my cake. Bye for now...

My New Favorite Toy

Mom bought me a "BunnyIQ" toy from my friends at BunSpace. I wasn't so sure I like the idea of having an "IQ" game. I'm the smartest rabbit on the block (well...I am the only rabbit on the block...but I digress).

I didn't really like the game at first but once I figured out that I get a treat every single time I play, I learned how to play it really fast! Check out the video Mom took of me with her phone.

Happy Holidays!

Hi everyone...it has been a long time since we've last spoken. Things are just as crazy as usual in my house. My mom is busy with her museum job and I only get to see my dad on the weekends (when he isn't traveling for his job). Thump!

This year I begged my mom not to take me to see the big red man with a beard (AKA Santa). She agreed, but she failed to mention that I would have to wear a few hats for this year's holiday photos. Ugh! You know how much I hate hats!

Here are a few of the photos mom managed to take while I worked my best to take these stupid reindeer and Santa hats off!








FINALLY...I escaped the Santa hat....


....and took off straight for my box.



Happy Holidays!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Hi everyone...I know it has been a LONG time since I've updated you on my life. Trust me...life is a bit crazy in my house. I'll catch you up below. But first I must share a few photos from my third birthday.

Here I am playing with my hat (those of you who know me...know how I really feel about the hats Mom makes me wear!).

Here's my cake...complete with 3 carrot candles.

Thanks Mom!

Enough with the hat....I want to eat cake!

A few more close ups.

As for the craziness in my house. Here's a brief recap of what's happened since my last update.

My Mom is finishing her job with the State of Iowa and she is also working as the new Executive Director of the Muscatine History and Industry Center. She's working both jobs on a part-time basis...or that's what she attempts. She also just finished a pictorial book of Muscatine history. Hence why I haven't had much computer time. Plus, my dad got a new position and he has to work 2.5 hours away! Mom and Dad have bought a townhome in Ankeny, Iowa. That's where Dad is going to live during the week. He will come home to see me on the weekends. I'm not sure how this is really going to work and I can tell Mom and Dad are both a bit stressed.

Anyway, I hope to have more time to update you on my life once Mom starts full-time at the museum next month.

Until next time....

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! Tonight I tried on my costume for the big day (OK...Mom made me try on my costume). I normally don't like it when Mom puts a hat on my head, but today I was excited to get dressed up for Halloween. Can you guess who I am?


Still don't know? I am Jackson Harering Potter. Get it? Harering (Harry) Potter. Pretty neat, eh?


And with my special powers, if I nod my head candy corn suddenly appears! (OK...mom and dad somehow made the candy corn appear. Can't a bunny dream?).

Here are a few more photos of me in my costume.


In my last post, I told you that Mom was worried I wasn't feeling very well. I really feel fine but Mom took me to the vet anyway. I guess I have something called anemia. I also test positive for something Mom calls EC. I heard her talking to the vet's office today. I think she is going to make me take medicine. Yuck! But don't worry, I feel just fine.

Happy Halloween! Catch me if you can....

New Photos of Me

Hi everyone. I have had a very bad day. Mom made me go to the vet today. She thinks I am drinking too much water...and that means there is something wrong with me. I feel just fine, but Mom thinks there is something wrong.

Well I think I am fine, but I am mad at her for making me get a ton of tests today. But I can't stay mad too long. I did let Mom take photos of me tonight. Enjoy!

Bye for now!

I Must Be the Lucky Charm...Cards Win!

Hi everyone. I know it has been a long time since I've updated my blog. My Mom's new job is taking TONS more time than she thought. So I've been spending my days and nights figuring out ways to get on her nerves (I have suddenly found that Dad's speakers taste REALLY good!). Hehe..

Tonight Mom let me get on her computer to celebrate the Cardinals winning the NL Central Division. I knew wearing my Dad's Cards hat on opening day was going to give the Redbirds the extra push they needed.


I think I had better keep the cap close...there are still plenty of games before the World Series.

Paws crossed. Bye for now!

Special Visitors

Hi everyone! I hope all is well with you.


I had VERY special visitors at my house this week. My Grandma and Grandpa McHugh came to see me! I was SO excited when my Mom told me they were visiting. I don't get to see them very often.

I love hanging out with Grandpa McHugh because he will roll around with me on the floor. Here I am checking Grandpa out.

And don't tell anyone...but I even gave Grandpa a few licks to show him I was so happy to see him. Hehe...

Grandma McHugh looks really good. She lost her hair while fighting cancer last year but it is starting to grow back. Even better, Grandma is officially in remission. She can't play with me on the floor but I did let her hold me in the chair (for a few minutes...not that I don't love Grandma...I would just rather be on the floor).




Grandma and Grandpa are moving to a place called The Woodlands in Texas. My Mom drove Grandma and her car to Texas last week and then flew home. I'm super happy for Grandma and Grandpa and I am really glad I got to see them before they moved.

Until next time....
