A big Thursday for me

Charlie March 22, 2012 035

This is my last update for my first week with my Mom and Dad. I have had such a big week. Yesterday was no exception. My Grandpa and I played again most of the day. My Grandma, who I call B.B., came over for lunch with Grandpa. I was so tired from playing that all I did was nap during her visit. She petted me a little!

Then, when my parents came home we spent all evening in the yard.

I have learned how to eat branches! I'm not sure why my parents are always telling me "No"! They sure do taste good and when they tell me "No" I kinda smile and do it again. I'm a little devil!

See!

Just a little snack...

Charlie March 22, 2012 012

Do I look guilty or what?

Charlie March 22, 2012 013

I've learned how to take flight off the patio! I back up and then take a flying leap off the step. I'm quite brave and adventurous.

Charlie March 22, 2012 016

And, I've figured out how to climb 2 of the back steps!

Charlie March 22, 2012 018

I even learned what a camellia is...

And, a dafodil (it made me sneeze!)...

Charlie March 22, 2012 091

And, even this thing that Mom called a tulip tree. All I knew was there was pink petals everywhere. They looked yummy!

Charlie March 22, 2012 023

I played with my Mom while Dad cut the grass.

Charlie March 22, 2012 043

She took my picture a lot. I thought it was funny, so I posed...

Charlie March 22, 2012 046

We ran and she kept trying to get me to do something. She kept saying the word "Fetch," but all I wanted to do was chew!

Charlie March 22, 2012 050

I'm such a good model!

Charlie March 22, 2012 049

Think I could make a calendar one day?

Charlie March 22, 2012 051

Maybe I could be a show dog?

Charlie March 22, 2012 054

I'm just so cute...

Charlie March 22, 2012 061

And, I helped my Dad rake leaves...

Charlie March 22, 2012 065

Well, maybe I just distracted him a bit...

Charlie March 22, 2012 067

Well, he raked and I watched, sniffed, and chomped at times on them!

I was so pooped that I had to nap on my mom's lap.

Charlie March 22, 2012 086

Charlie March 22, 2012 088

Did I tell you I am not afraid of the lawnmower? It's kinda cool to be on top of the world! It makes a lot of noise, but I'm not afraid!

Charlie March 22, 2012 070

I have a lot of trust in my parents. I know they take good care of me. My Mom takes a lot of pictures, though. I go running towards her when I see the flash and hear the click.

Charlie March 22, 2012 020

Charlie March 22, 2012 029

Here I come, Mom!

After my nap the neighbors came over for an introduction. Molly, the shih tzu, wasn't very friendly. She wouldn't play with me. Honestly, she was kinda standoffish!

Charlie March 22, 2012 095

Did I smell funny or something?

Charlie March 22, 2012 102

She looked different than me. Kinda like a mop!

Charlie March 22, 2012 105

We touched noses a little, but she just tried to walk away...

Charlie March 22, 2012 118

That's ok because I got her. I'm really smart already, so I grabbed her leash and started playing tug-of-war with her.

Charlie March 22, 2012 114

Charlie March 22, 2012 115

I walked her around. Ha! Yet again proving the intelligence of my breed!

Charlie March 22, 2012 111

Charlie March 22, 2012 109

That's ok, because I met my Auntie Kim, Uncle Josh, and my favorite cousin, Katelyn.

Charlie March 22, 2012 093

She carried me around a lot and let me mooch all over her. She said she'd come back to check on me daily. I can't wait. I LOVE her long hair! Yum!

After they left I was pretty pooped, so I took a nap on my mom's neck again. Then we played some more and we went to sleep. I only got up once last night. I was a good boy. No accidents! I know to go outside already!

Well, I can't wait for more adventures this weekend. I hope it doesn't rain too much! That affects my outdoor time you know!

I'll be back next week with more stories I'm sure. I just love being with them.
