Puppy Love
Since we didn't get to take our recent trip to Florida, we had the nice consolation prize of keeping some friends' Golden Retriever puppy. It was a FUN week !
A lovely "Lady"
First snow ?
Lady with her "Fairy Dogmother" !
Viewing at the zoo ! We primarily kept the puppy in the kitchen, so when it was necessary to block off the room, we used an old door that had recently been replaced. It's hard to tell in this picture which one is IN the zoo and which one is OUT.
Feeding time at the zoo was Lady's favorite!
It gave new meaning to the verses in the Bible that talk about feeding the children's bread to the little dogs and the little dogs eating the crumbs which fall from the table! The puppy was a very diligent "helper" at Samuel's mealtimes. In fact, she was accidentally rewarded at one of the feedings.....when Samuel won't eat, we sometimes use various "tactics" such as zooming the spoon like an airplane and pretending to eat it ourselves, etc. (yes, we've sunk to all those "ridiculous" things parents do); anyway, at one of the meals I told Samuel I would give it to the puppy and moved the spoon in the direction of the puppy but not that close (I thought). However, the puppy took it as an invitation to jump up and lick the spoon ! We now know that puppy likes Apples & Chicken baby food! I think Samuel would have gladly let the puppy have the whole jar. (And, yes, I did get Samuel a clean spoon !)
This was a favorite spot, even when the highchair was empty. Must be fond memories...
She was quite taken with Samuel. "Play with me, play with me....."
Sweet babies...

Such sweet pictures of sweet babies. I hadn't heard about the baby food; maybe we'll need to try that if Science Diet doesn't appeal to her in the future!
