Family Day

It was "Family Day" at the Drake Center (Cody's vet) and they were kind enough to take free family portraits. Here is my favorite of the 8 pictures they gave us. Awww, don't we make a cute family? Clearly Cody gets his good looks from Momma :)

This is what chipmunks look like...

According to Cody:

Cross Eyed Comedy

Of all of the Cody swimming pictures i took yesterday, this one was among my favorites. i can not stop laughing at how goofy he looks in this!
Caught in mid- twist (shaking the water off his body)



Here's a close up of what puppy eyes do when they shake themselves up hahaha

Making Mommy proud on Mother's day!

What a beautiful, sunny, and warm Mother's Day today! It was so nice we decided to take a dip in the pool and, you guessed it! Cody Bear's 2nd attempt to go swimming!! Look at him go!



He needed some help finding the steps on the shallow end of the pool.



With a wee bit of encouragement, praise, and a helping hand to stay calm,



Cody Bear stood on the first step of the pool ALL BY HIMSELF and made Mommy SO proud!



Cody then got the spa treatment of being towel-dried for being such a great sport!

Puppy Yoga Classes...

Are now starting in the bedroom closet.

Before you can get to the bedroom...

Ya gotta get passed the hall monitor first :)

Gettin' cozy

Today was such a lovely sunny Sunday. Cody Bear made himself comfortable on the swing at grandma and grandpa's backyard.

The First Casualty...

Auntie Cheryl (the greatest puppy sitter ever!) across the street tried an experiment yesterday to see how Cody would do left inside the house by himself, outside of his crate. i came home to find him munching on something on the stairs:



this is the first thing cody has ever chewed up inside our house since we got him.

after scolding him for being a "bad dog," Cody ran outside to the backyard, as far away from his angry mother and didn't step foot inside the house for about an hour. i think he had some time to think about what he had done haha

Cody's Spock impersonation

Everyone should take the time to stop and...

SMELL...

or EAT the roses! :)

Surf's Up!

Here is Cody checkin out the surf. Waiting for the next big set to ride haha

This is my good side...

See!

He's so graceful!

Cody *LOVES* water! So when you spray water up in the air, he tries to catch it with his mouth on their way down... This is SO not a flattering picture of him being caught in the act haha :)

Swimming lessons!

Cody got his first swimming lesson today in the backyard pool. Go Cody, go!!!

His sense of humor...

Cody thinks the garden gnome behind him is the funniest thing ever!

How Cody gets the ladies...

His 3 simple steps:

Step 1: Give the girl a wink and and smile :)



Step 2: Be sexy. Lick those lips like you mean it!



Step 3: Pucker up buttercup (cause by this time, you've melted her heart and she's all yours!)

Let me see them pearly whites!

Cody's adult teeth are growing in now and he can't believe how white they are! He's not afraid to show them off. Smile Cody!



Here's a close up :)

Lending a helping hand.. err.. paw...

Cody's favorite new thing to do is to help wash the dishes, especially since he can reach the sink now! (no more baths in the kitchen sink for him these days- he's getting BIG!) Such a thoughtful little pup! :)

Even dogs like to meditate!

or sun bathe.. same thing right? :) here is Cody "meditating" in Grandma and Grandpa's backyard.

Cody's First Day At The Beach!

Mark your calendars! Today was Mr. Cody Bear's very first day to set his paws at the beach! yes, it was a very exciting day for all of us, especially for Mr. Bear!


He even made a new friend, Leroy, the chocolate lab!


He splished and splashed, ran away from the waves, and had the best Saturday afternoon ever!




Cody can't wait to go back to the beach! (and neither can we!!!) :)
