Where has my little monster gone? It's hard to believe how quickly the last year has gone by, from the anticipation of a puppy, to the flight, to the posting and the teens. Murphy has been two handfuls and then some, yet as I see him mature it's becoming clear that it'll be worth it (I type as I run onto the deck to scold him for barking at the neighbours). I often see behaviours that show me just how great of a dog he is growing into.
Without getting all sappy and cheesy, I think it's time to move onto some pictures!
The day I got him as 12 weeks:
Before learning to properly post (12 weeks):
Couldn't even jump on the couch (13 weeks):
Helping me put together the dining set (14 weeks):
Pooped (15 weeks):
All smiles: (16 weeks):
Perching while we eat (18 weeks):
Teething (22 weeks):
Tired of ma studying for exams (31 weeks):
Ear infections suck - and so does your mum when she knits you a snood (35 weeks):
Wubba love (10 months):
And today:
Awaiting his birthday present - a jolly ball with a ball inside! Oh, and before you think I cheaped out we actually bought sod for our yard specifically for him. Should we have planted grass. Probably. But Murphy needed grass now! So sod it is!
Happy birthday muh big boy!
