Charlie :)

Mr. Charlie is getting pretty smart...but the learning curve for accidents in the house is still a little steep for him. We know he'll get there.

He has become such a playful little guy and loves attention and play time. I think he has figured out his rank in the house and is getting better about calming down and obeying our orders. He still nips at us when he wants to play, but it is no longer out of the blue biting. Exercising him regularly and for long periods has really helped. Thanks Jenny for telling me about the Dog Whisperer!

Anyway, here is a picture of Charlie just because he is cute!

More News

Erik and I have had a tough couple of weeks: leaks in our roof and basement, deck not to code, AC explosion, 2 of 3 cars not working. The good news is that Erik and his friend Paul took the deck down this past weekend. Siding was done on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week AND our house will be cool as a cucumber as of this evening. Thank goodness. We have been using a little window unit in our bedroom and blasting it to cool our house.



In Charlie news things are going well. He walks on his leash (though we think it is more a chasing of our feet), is getting better about letting us know when he needs to go to the bathroom, and is generally sleeping more through the night. He even crawls into his crate when he gets sleepy. It's pretty adorable. Here are some recent pictures of our little one.
