Tucker's sense of smell


Either he can't smell or he's the first person I've known not to be revolted by my shoes after mowing the yard.

Tucker Video

Bleu really would have a blast with the little monster.

Short ones of him and Lola that were meant to be pictures. One he's trying to eat her face, the other he's standing under her trying to eat Rachel's sandwich at the drive-in.

Cubs

Tucker might like the Cubs more than I do.

Our Ghetto Getaway.





There is a sections in our backyard that due to a combination of the house, trees and fence only gets about 30 minutes of sun a day. Bleu and Lola would spend most of their time during the summer there digging mud holes to lay in and stay cool. Well, we filled in the holes last week, put some black landscaping paper over it and covered it with river rock. Throw in a kiddie pool and some tiki torches and its our new Ghetto Getaway.


Of course Lola still prefers to lay on the deck and watch Tucker play instead of joining in, but she's getting better about allowing him in her presence for a spontaneous tug-o-war session every now and then.




Tucker just runs and plays until he passes out.


Its funny though, because he seems afraid to go all the way around the back yard unless someone is with him.


He really likes hanging around the pool and getting in Rachel's lap.


We also went to Utica Square on Thursday Night with some friends for a free concert featuring "Mid-Life Crisis". They are definitely in their "Mid-Life" but are actually really good. If you get a chance Utica is the place to be on Thursday's Lola had a blast flirting with some Golden Retrievers and letting little girls pet her.


Tucker didn't last very long.

Dr. Poteat


Our Vet's name is Dr. Poteat. He's a real laid back older guy from Blytheville, Ar, which makes him a little more credible than the rest of the Vets in Tulsa, OK. He sent me the picture they have of Bleu on file, its one of my favorites! He's lettin it all hang out on this one.
I took Tucker to the Vet last Thursday and the Doc said he's a picture of health and should be tough as nails in a few months. He weighed in a 9 lbs at 8 weeks to the day old and seemed to be okay with the Dr. visit with the exception of the "forced stool withdrawal."

Pics of Bleu in the Saturn

I couldn't find these the other day when I was talking about Bleu hating the Saturn but here are two that show how big he was compared to the small back seat.

Tucker's first trip to the park

We took Tucker to Riverside on Monday and he struggled with the whole leash thing.






We ran into Bobby who used to be our neighbor at the rent house. He was upset to hear about Bleu because Bobby's dog Bear and Bleu used to get into their share of trouble together(That's a lot of B's in one sentence).



Hi! I'm Tucker!

Tucker is the new puppy we picked up this past weekend from my cousin Julie. Bleu would definitely like him because he likes to play but he's still trying to get Lola to warm up to him.





He seems to be amused by himself.













And to this point seems to amuse kids, like my cousin Allison's little girl Weslyn.

And the weekend was good, got to see the family and get some QT with MeMe, my aunts, cousins, etc. The main reason aside from Tucker for the visit was my Niece, Stephanie graduated from high school, so yes I am officially old.





Also went fishing on Saturday and did pretty well if I do say so myself.

At least I did better than my Dad.

The drive back to Tulsa on Sunday was pretty miserable because it rained the whole way. We took the Saturn which was impossible to do with Bleu because he was just too big to fit back there and could never get comfortable. That reminds me of a trip we took to see Rachel's family in Kentucky with Bleu and Lola in the Saturn, awful. We did stop and get them a frosty to make them happy. Bleu was kind enough to clean Lola's face after she spilled a little on her chin. That was the last time Bleu ever took a trip in the little car.
