Busy Busy Busy

Now that I am a whole 11 weeks old, I am a very busy girl! I can run up and down the stairs as fast as Bailey and I have figured out how to get up on the couch so now he can never get away from me unless he gets on the bed. I can't quite get up there yet. Bailey is coming around and now lets me curl up in his fluffy coat for a nap. I can't tell you how cozy this little spot is.

Besides all the time that I spend chasing Bailey, I have discovered that chasing down ants and killing them is a total riot. If I just touch them lightly they start to run and then I can chase them and pounce on them. Of course when they get to the grass that makes them a little more difficult to find. Here is a picture of me in the garden trying to find some shade.
This weekend Porter and I had a few good games of chase going in the yard. When he gets the zoomies look out! I figured out that I only had to chase him half way 'cause he would turn around and come back and I could grab his tail and go for a ride. Now that was some kind of fun! I am getting pretty fast and can almost keep up to that big guy. I have to learn how to bank my corners a little better though because on one occasion I went a little wide and ended up in the paint tray my mother was using to paint the fence. After she was done laughing at her and I covered in green paint she wasn't very impressed so we had to stop chasing each other. There are no photos of this event as there was just too much paint to deal with.

Don't get too deceived by all the fun I am having as I am also learning how to sit, down, stay and fetch! Fetch is the most fun especially when I get to chase tennis balls! Did you know that they make a ball small enough for me?
