Crazy House

Tonight we decided it would be a lot of fun to run around the house like crazy lunatics. We chased The Roo and he and Baxter both thought it was hilarious. The Roo can run real fast now but he also falls more too. He thinks it's funny to fake fall. Baxter thinks it's funny to lick him when he falls!

Baxter's Ready to Play

So the tape measure was so much fun that The Roo decided to take his morning nap with it. I'm sure it was just as cuddly as his patchy bear. When he woke up, Baxter immediately looked at me with his big puppy dog eyes and said "hurry up slow poke, what are you waiting for, go get him so we can play some more." Silly mommy, how could you forget that Baxter's in charge!

Mommy's Back

Mommy has returned from her trip to Boston. Daddy said that Baxter and The Roo had a great week together. The Roo was full speed ahead this morning when he got up. He has also learned that it's a lot of fun to use a tape measure to poke Baxter.....who knew you could have so much fun with a tape measure!

The Roo Enters Boyhood

Or at least that's what the 1st haircut certificate says. Mommy's not ready for The Roo to enter boyhood, but I guess that's what a 1st haircut does. So The Roo and his dada got a haircut together and all those cute curls are gone. Enjoy the before and after.

Having lunch after the haircut.Running around in the yard later that day.

Comfortable Seating

The doggie makes for a comfortable seat, especially when you want to kick back and have a refreshing drink.



But sometimes the doggie would rather play!

Meet Baxter

Baxter is happy to meet you too!

Meet The Roo

This is The Roo.....he's very happy to meet you!

Welcome to Baxter and The Roo!

Welcome to the adventures of Baxter and The Roo. As you'll see from the pictures, Baxter is a 4 year old lab and The Roo is my 18 month old son. They have loads of fun together. Hopefully you'll have just as much fun reading this blog as we do watching the two of them play. Enjoy!

Play Ball!

We went to Oneonta, NY for Mike and Jessica's wedding.  Roo did pretty good in the car considering what a terrible rider he is.  The weather was beautiful, considering it was August, and we had a lot of fun seeing family.  Roo was so good at the wedding; he stayed up way past his bedtime and was still really easy going.  We spent some time going to Cooperstown too.  He and dada got matching Red Sox t-shirts.  He also had a ton of fun pushing around his stroller.  One of his favorite moments was watching a bunch of motorcycles drive by, they just captured his attention.  On the way home, a very kind woman reassured me that he would indeed slim down once he started moving around more, because, you know, we were so worried!  All in all, it was a great trip and we all had fun!
