training continues...

Malcolm is on the verge of crawling and is getting stronger everyday. Yesterday Roger took a picture of him doing a full push-up... amazing huh?
Malcolm and me.

Good days and bad days.

For the most part my little brother Malcolm is quite a happy fellow, but there are some times when he can be quite upset. I've come to realize that human babies need lots of sleep, don't get me wrong I love sleep too, but Malcolm isn't a happy camper if he doesn't get at least two solid naps a day. Normally, he sleeps 1.5-2 hours in the morning and has a similar nap in the late afternoon. This morning I woke him up a bit early because I barked at the doorbell.

Roger and Tracey have been putting Malcolm to bed a lot earlier than before, around 7:30 or 8:00pm. It's kind of a mixed blessing cause on the one hand he's been sleeping through the night (whoo hoo!), but on the other hand it doesn't allow for much time to be doing things outside after 7pm. I know that Tracey's a bit sad about that (especially with the onset of summer).

Roger took us both on a walk this evening and here are some pictures. He even took one of my friend Snoopy, I haven't seen him in quite a while, not since Malcolm was born.
Snoopy really does have two ears.
Here's Malcolm deep in thought.

Summer is here, too bad the sun isn't.

The first official day of summer and it's been warm, but definitely not sunny. We spent the evening at the park yesterday watching Tracey play softball; Roger plays sometimes too, but either Tracey or Roger have to watch Malcolm and me. Here are some more pictures Roger took of us this past week.

Here's a picture of Grandpa Harry and Malcolm at the store.
This is my favorite place to sit when we're at home, I get a bird's eye view of everything from the window seat.
Have you seen a happier kid before? (I think Tracey took this one)
Here's me at the park.

Here are some more pics...

Well the Conders are gone and hopefully settling into their new surroundings in Vienna. We wish them well and hope to hear about their new adventure soon. In the meantime here are some new pictures shot last week.

Malcolm got to swing at the park.

Malcolm got to play on the swings the other day. Here are some pictures:

We'll be missing the family moving to Austria.

Roger's friend Ryan is moving the whole family to Austria next week. They are planning to be away for approximately 3 years. I know that Ryan has been checking the blog, so I thought I'd throw out a shout out to him in Vienna. Here's the name of the place he'll be working at:On behalf of the family, I would like to send my warmest wishes for their continued happiness and success. In the meantime here are some more pictures:

Anyonghaseo! 안녕하세요

Malcolm and I shared a very strange moment this afternoon. We were both in the kitchen and I think we bowed to each-other. Roger told me that it's a very common way of greeting each-other. Here's the picture, you can decide for yourselves:

New camera = more pictures!

Here are some action shots of me jumping on the bed.


Here are some pics of Malcolm, I love the one where he's raising one eyebrow, I wish I could do that!

Roger got an early birthday present!

Roger got a new camera for his birthday/father's day. It's a Nikon D40 with a 18-200VR lens.


Here are some new pics with the new camera:

7 Months today....

Malcolm is 7 months old today, hurray! He's really grown the last little while; he doesn't even sleep swaddled up anymore. He sleeps on his side, his back, even his stomach. That's very funny to Roger and Tracey because he hates tummy time so much.



I'm fine too. Now that we're getting more good weather I've been treated to more walks than usual. We've even gone to the beach and the ballpark and it's only the first week of June. Paws crossed that it's going to be a good summer. I've heard rumours that I might even be going for my first professional haircut soon. Do you think I need it?
