Happy Spring!

Here are some of the latest and greatest of our puppy who is growing way too fast!


Norm's BFF, Cooper, who teaches him all about sharing.


Norman has loved being outside in the warmer weather. Unfortunately, he also loves to chew on people's pretty spring flowers like daffodils and tulips.


If Norm could vote, he says that he'd be a Republican. :) Not suprisingly, two of his favorite toys among many to choose from are a GOP elephant and a vodoo-type Hillary Clinton doll. He is totally obsessed with the Hillary doll lately, which was a present courtesy of Cooper's mom, Laurie.


I have a stuffed Golden Retriever named Boston (my college roommate Sarah brought him back for me after a trip to Boston, where she ended up going to grad school). Boston just happens to be Norman's size lately, so I couldn't resist sizing them up together. A couple shades more "golden" but otherwise they look alike!


Looking for Cooper to come play.


Out enjoying the beautiful spring weather and the cherry blossoms. Check out how big he looks in this picture!


Absolutely exhausted after a rough-and-tumble session with Cooper.

Awww! I don't think Norman could be cuter. We love him so much! And he is so smart to pee in your neighbor's yard...she deserves it. XXOOO Alex Powers

I just cannot believe what a cutie pie he is, Mel! The three of y'all look just absolutely precious.

He is just the cutest thing on earth! I swear he is. Sounds like he's just a great dog. I'm sure we'll be up your way before too much longer so that we can meet him.

Hey! Nice blog. Is it just me or does the Hillary Clinton doll look creepily like the Joker?

So cute Mel! I found your link from the Boatman site. Ha, we thought about naming our son Norman :) Such a cute name, and with meaning of course.
