The Boyz

 Took some cute pics of by boys just this week. Sheldon is so photogenic an really likes his picture taken. Jud was not as cooperative, and Crosby87 hardly sits still long enough to snap anything. He is learning though.

 This one makes me chuckle. If i were adding thought bubbles to this photo, they would go something like this...

Sheldon: " heehee, little dude is going to getin trouble for eating dad's tie."

Jud: " awww, he's so cute."

Crosby87: " numnumnumnumnum"
Love this! Since we have one with Jud and Sheldon thought it would be cute to do with Crosby87. We thought Sheldon's feet were big, but...

Spending Time at Home

We enjoyed some time at home this month, just doing what we had too. We are enjoying the break while we can, and taking care of all the "beasties". My big boy sure loves his furry brothers. 

 Jud has been helping take care of our sick bunny, Colt. He has needed lots of medicine and care while he recovers. 




 Our furry boys are really starting to bond and spend quiet time together. Crosby87's quiet time is pretty short, he is a busy playful pup. We discovered the hard way that when we buy a toy or chew that we need to get two, one always wants what the other has. They don't fight over anything, but it is just too sad to watch one wait for the other to "drop" whatever so... No spoiled pups here, no way, lol.
 His name is Crosby87, so we shouldn't be surprised he wants to play with a hockey stick. Too bad his idea of playing always means chewing, lol. Poor pup is fighting with those puppy teeth and trying to get in his big boy teeth. Teeething pups are much more difficult than teething babies, I think. Good thing he is so cute, lol.
 Puppies, at least this one, are always hungry. Poor boy thinks he is going to starve, so decided to try eating by osmosis? Crosby87 took a nap with his food, that is an odd choice of Woobie but whatever works.
Two of my boys just hanging out, chillaxin'.

Carnival!

 One of the local churches had a carnival. Jud rode rides and enjoyed some family fun. He and Dad ride the rides that Mama is too scared to ride. This one flipped them all over the place.
 The Tilt-O-Whirl is about as crazy as Mama gets. We giggled until our bellies hurt though.
A fun summer evening with my favorite little boy.

NorthBark

 Sheldon loves to go to the park, so as soon as Crosby87 had all his vaccines we took hm along for his first park experience. It was funny and sweet how Sheldon who keep an eye on him. Crosby87 stayed pretty close and was a little intimidated by the dogs. But both boys had fun. Sheldon tried to talk Crosby87 into going into the pond but he was not ready for that.
 And this is the result of a fun play date at the park. Two tired puppies.



 NorthBark a week later...



 Crosby87's second trip to the dog park was crazy fun. He decided to give his inner Lab a chance and went swimming. Boy did he like swimming. I thought I was going to have to send Jud into the pond to get him out, lol. Sheldon doesn't swim, he just goes in as deep as he can walk, but Crosby87 swam all over the place.

Then we went over to the other play area and they ran around and played with some other nice dogs.
 And.... the trip home is always so peaceful and quiet. The boys are ready for their naps.

Dallas Stars Elite '04

 Crosby87 got to watch Jud play hockey on the iPad. He watched and started barking, it was so funny. It sounded like he was saying "skate, Jud, skate!!"LOL
 So Jud decided to try out for the Elite team for his first year of Squirt hockey, and he made it!!! He was super excited. A busy season coming up, with lots of work for our boy.
 Our Hockey Boys!



Jud loved watching the Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup. After the game he decided he needed some gear to celebrate.

Camp Invention 2013


 Jud went to Camp Invention again this year. He has a great time inventing things and creating projects. His friend from school, Savannah goes as well. These two have been in the same class since kindergarten. They are hoping to be together for 4th grade as well.

Puppy love

We are still getting used to having a puppy in the house. He is a cutie, but a lot busier than our other beasties. Crosby87 met Colt through the condo and was pretty curious, but not aggressive.

 Puppies play hard and sleep hard.

 These two can definitely play hard together. Sheldon will be happy when Crosby87 looses those sharp puppy teeth, so will the rest of us.
