Bauer is growing so fast, and as he grows we are definitely noticing some stages. Right now he is just so funny and full of himself that I had to post about it. In the past 24 hours he has just been hilarious.
It all started a couple evenings ago when Kaleb had taken him to the office in the afternoon to play with his uncle
Duece. After work they went to visit Grammy and after many tasty treats and a trip to play in the pond, they were ready to come home. Kaleb called for Bauer to come and headed for the door. Bauer forgot to notice that there was a glass door between him and the outdoors. After hitting the window with a thud he crumpled into a little pile and looked at Kaleb like, " What? How was I supposed to know there was a window there?"
Another daily goal of the little dog now is to sneak into the closet and grab a flip flop and discretely run into the living room to use it as a chew toy without getting caught. The problem is that the little cocky puppy struts around like a
banty rooster when he has stolen something he is not supposed to have. It makes it pretty hard not to notice when he goes strutting by like, "Look at me and what I did!" Anyway last night as we were getting ready to go out Bauer had been hanging out in the bathroom with us, but in his boredom decided to go into the living room to play. To our surprise, when Kaleb went to get his shoes he realized that one was missing. he had successfully snuck passed both of us on his stealth flip flop mission! Victory was his! But it was pretty short lived, and no damage was done.
That is only a couple of his crazy antics, but everyday he tries something new and mischievous.
We went Northeastern Oklahoma for family Thanksgiving, and lots of fun. While we were there the weather was nice, so we decided to get Bauer out and about and go to the lake for some water fun. Bauer always loves the water, but he is still a little unsure about actually swimming. He is more of a bobber, and when it gets over his head he generally heads back to shore. So, he was out in the water and Kaleb had crossed and was calling him to the shore on the other side. Bauer decided to go a different route than where Kaleb had tried to lead him. The water was over his head and he was in the middle of the water. At first he panicked and got up next to a little , so he just went for it. He was kind of scared which we didn't like, and Kaleb could see his legs flaling all out of sink. But, nonetheless, he leveled out and swam across!! He swam on Thanksgiving Day! It was awesome, and I can't wait until the weather is warmer and we can be in the water with him swimming!
