first he wanted to...

then he had to.

she loved that he was pushing her.

if she turned around and saw it was me,

she would scream at him to come back and try to climb out.

we figured out as long as he stayed towards the back,

out of sight,

she was happy.

just in time for the hills.

pup's favorite place to hang out.

lying down with head resting between the spindles.

sniffing.

enjoying the cold air and mountain scents.

today he had compnay.

cj never leaves his side when he is here.

he is not afraid of oliver's puppy energy.

he walks around with his hand on oliver's back.

lays with him when he is resting.

makes sure he always has a toy or bone.

and they call it...

puppy love.

 

it was a time of intrigue.
bravery,

complete disgust
& exhuberant joy.

an intermission of peekaboo...
times two.
 
then a finale of love for a bug she named bug.

 let me start off by saying...

i do not have favorites.

i am a relatively fair mom.

we all get dessert or no one does.

i pick my picture to post on the quality of the photo...

not the child i love the most.

these were taken tonight at the county fair.

you would have thought that i would have posted a picture of charlie performing.

he was amazing.

the lighting was not.

so my pick for tonight is...

pickle checking out the grounds while waiting in line for the ferris wheel.

he only had time for one ride tonght before we had to leave for hip hop class.

he was taking it all in.

 

with this guy.

charging our batteries before heading home.

an overnight to burlington.

stumbled upon the festival of fools.

amazing lunch at an outdoor cafe.

love our family...

nice to be just us.
