Cooper update

So Cooper is still cute as a button, still bitting, but we have a new technic we are going to try. So hopefully that goes well. He went for his first swim this week. He waded in and swam briefly after a stick. He loves a good stick. It was very cold and he doesn't have much hair or fat to keep him warm, so one swim was enough for him. He also tried to sneak up on a Robin this week with little success, a guess a dark brown puppy on short green grass sticks out a little. Weird, I know :) Cooper also discovered that Moe's tail is a really fun thing to chase, especially when it is wagging. Moe doesn't seem to mind, but we'll see what happens when Cooper actually catches Moe's tail. Here are some picture from his first day swimming, and misc. pictures from around the house. ENJOY!

Went to see Patty and Moe



Before we picked up Cooper we went and saw Patty and Moe, Henry's brother in law and sister. Here are some pictures from that visit.

I love all the colors!
I didn't know there were green and white tulips
$5! I think that is a great deal!
Again Love the colors!

It was really fun to see them and their new apartment. We hope to go back later this year.

More puppy pictures










This is my new favorite picture of Cooper.

This pictures were taken on 4/13 and 4/14. It has been nasty weather the last few days so today( 60+ degrees and partially cloudy) we are going to go play in the sunshine in the back yard. Maybe even play in the water.

The newest Yan

We brought Cooper our Irish Water Spaniel puppy home yesterday. He is very cute (of course) and quite well behaved. He hasn't pee in the house and the times he has come really close to peeing, it was my fault for not taking him out after a long play or a long car ride. So really I am the one who needs to be trained. :) He is sleeping anywhere between 4 and 6 hour at a time at night which is a great blessing. Here are some pictures of him from the last few days.


First time in the snow, no big deal.

First bath at home

RUN AWAY!!!




Cheep toys are the best toys.


Time for nap, I think the bed is a little big for him right now.

So cute!

Leaning new things

Since I no longer need to study, I am leaning to do new things. One of those new things is blog backgrounds. I made the current one and am working on a couple others. I finally got the template right so now mass productions should be pretty easy. I am also getting back into photography. I am really excited to work with some new programs and take lots of pictures of our puppy. Can you tell I am excited for the puppy?

All about Our Puppy

The litter we are getting a puppy from was born on Feb 14th. Valentines day AND the Chinese new year. So as the breeder said "they are sweethearts." Here are some pictures of them over the last few weeks. We have decided to name our little boy dog Cooper. We get to pick him up Sunday and am so excited to bring him home. I will post pictures of the one we bring home.
