    First Grade!

    Barley continues to grow up way too fast. I was out of town visiting family during the first week of July and I swear I left a puppy and came home to a pre teen. He started First Grade (Obedience I) last night and continues to be the class clown. He used to run circles under Thor (the funniest zoomies ever - Barley running in circles like a maniac while Thor just stood there all "what is wrong with him?") and last night he ran headfirst into Thor's side. Too big now, Barley!

    A brief moment of peace:

    He's outgrowing the puppy sized crate:

    Closeup, with a little owie on his lip from tripping over himself (clumsy puppy stage).

    First night of First Grade - he really liked the girl yellow lab. (is that what they call puppy love?)

    And a bonus shot of Thor being Thor - this was after a long play session with Barley. Barley put back in the crate and Thor passed out like this.

    Way too cute. Thor looks like he's doing the Thriller dance in his sleep.

    Ha! When he does his sleep twitches I'll have to remember that. I call it his T-Rex arms.

    He got scooped up for cuddles SO MUCH in the first month home, I remembered how fast it went by with Thor and wanted to take advantage of his size as much as possible while I could!

    The third pic reminds me of the pic of Thor you used to have at the bottom of your posts! I swear Barley is Thor's mini-me!
