The reason for the title is today I am 5 months old.  I've grown since Mom and Dad first brought me home.  I don't weigh much more but like every baby we all grow up.  Mom is trying to teach me tricks and of course I just look at her and go why???? BUT I do try especially if she has a treat!
Like all kids I get in trouble for chewing on things like shoes or doors or whatever happens to be close by.  Heck I even try to pull clothes out of the hamper. I love to pull underware and socks out through those little openings. Of course that always gets me a swat on the backside and a stern NO!! I'm learning Mom and Dad have lots of different tones in their voices!!

I'm also getting use to when Mom wants to take a picture of something she thinks is "cute" I stop doing it immediately.  The other day brother and I were all curled up taking a nap under this little rocking chair..and of course she thought she wanted a picture.  You can see I'm wide awake but brother is looking all grumpy.  I think he told me to just put my head back down and go to sleep and she'd go away faster.  But since I was awake I decided it was time for him to wake up too!!
Here is the picture Mom took of us cuddling up together. We really are best buds!!

The Best Dam Car Show

No I didn't cuss Mom old me that is what they call the car show in Trenton, Ne.  The reason behind that name is it is held at the Marina at the Trenton dam.  Mom took her little Superbeetle and Dad took his Camaro.  It was about an hours drive..but Mom put me in my little kennel and zipped me in.  I cried a couple of times as I really wanted to be out of the kennel but Mom explained to me I couldn't as she couldn't hold me and drive..so then I settled down and slept.  She also took an ice pack that goes in the top of the small cooler and put it under the sheepskin in my kennel..that kept me a nice place to sleep as it kept it cool.  I stayed there most of the day and evening! 
The best part of the car show I think is I got to see Uncle Tom and Aunt Chris.  I did my thing and gave Aunt Chris a kiss but then I got to go to Uncle Tom.  You can see how many kisses I gave to him in the next few pictures.  Mom also won a very neat door prize at least she said it was.  I won't get to enjoy it but she said they would.

Got to get a hug first

And now the kisses begin

AND they keep on going

Can't keep me from trying to give a kiss

Okay I give BUT I'll give you one again just wait and see!

This is the door prize Mom won
