Family Morning at Marymoor

 

Starting out on the trail.  I was so excited when I first got to the park, that I played a little too rough with a tiny dog.  I kept accidentally stepping on him with my big feet.  I found plenty of other dogs to play with after that, though.

 I love jumping back and forth over these fences.  I don't even need a reason.

 I check in with my human every once in a while, for a treat.

 By the end, I was pretty tuckered out.  I would run ahead and then take little breaks in the grass to catch my breath.

Little brother was worn out too.

Halloween

 A couple of weeks before Halloween, my humans carved some pumpkins.  I don't really understand the point, but I definitely wanted to eat the insides.  I even managed to sneak a few bites of the pumpkin seeds, before I was caught.  After that I just hung out with Little Brother, and we watched while they continued to work.

On Halloween night, my human insisted on trying to get me to dress up.  I let her have her fun for a while, but hats are not my favorite.

Yesterday, my human and I (and my little brother) went for a walk around an outdoor mall.  I like walking around here because there is lots to see!  Whenever we walk by this pool in the photo, I try to get my human to let me swim in it.  I guess it's not that kind of pool, though.  She made me just sit by it for a picture instead.  Whatever.  My favorite store to walk by is Lucy, because they always have a water dish outside for me to drink out of.  I also met two Labradors who were so good at walking next to their human, that they weren't even on a leash!  I wish I had that kind of self control!  Maybe I'll get there eventually....probably not.

A Lazy Weekend

 

This weekend my humans and I relaxed and caught up on some movies.  My favorite was World War Z.  Although, I think I will continue to have nightmares for weeks.  Good thing my humans let me sleep on the corner of their bed with my head on their pillow (whether they know it or not).

 

Other shenanigans included:

 

 Apparently Lee got very close to his first bite of pizza.  He has to wait a couple more months though.  I feel your pain Little Brother.

 

He also practiced sitting up, and I took this time to clean him up a bit.  Spit up is a delicacy in my book.

 

 On Sunday, my human Elise and I went on a run.  Then we spent the afternoon watching movies with these two. 

I like to follow Little Brother around the house, wherever my other humans carry him (he still can't walk yet).  When he's hanging out in his room, I hang out in his room with him.  I even got him to share his blanket with me the other day. 

SQUIRREL?

 My human and I went for a brisk, Fall run at a nearby park, a couple of days ago.  We've only been to this park a couple of times, because it is usually so busy, but it was pretty quiet this time.  She enjoyed the changing fall colors.  I enjoyed looking for squirrels.  This looked like prime squirrel territory.  I didn't find any, but it won't stop me from being on high alert the next time we go.  We did run by a little white dog who seemed not to notice me, and a yappy little wiener dog.  The wiener dog definitely noticed me and ran all the way to the end of his extendable leash before his owner reeled him back it.  I gave him a little bark too, as we ran by.  It's been cold and rainy the past couple days, so now it definitely feels like Fall.  The rain doesn't bother me, but it takes a little more convincing to get my human to go outside.  Maybe I need to make her a coat out of all the hair that I shed....  *Google search:  How to sew with no opposable thumbs*

 

This is my little brother and me, waiting for my human to get ready for the day.  He's getting better at holding his head up.  I'm just waiting for him to start crawling so he can follow me around the house.

I snuck in a few licks while I was at it.
