A Boy And His Dog!

Kieran LOVES this puppy and this is how he reacts EVERY single time we bring him out to hang out in the living room.

Pure joy and silliness!

He looks SO grown-up.  Our little guy is getting big:(

His favorite thing to do is get close enough to him that Riker will sniff him and nuzzle him with his nose.

Then he does this:)

It's quite hilarious and fun! I'm so glad I got some pictures of his reaction because they make me laugh every time I look at them.

Svea, on the other hand likes the dog, but doesn't venture that close to him.

 

On other notes Kieran this weekend just continues to take off in the department of talking and showing us he understands things.  One funny thing he started doing is running into the kitchen (if he catches the gate open) and he hides behind a cupboard door.  Then he waits for us to come walking in and bursts out to surprise us.  He giggles and smiles and gives hugs and then does it again.  He is also climbing up on those chairs like crazy.  I was washing dishes and he was playing in the living room. What felt like two seconds later and I look over and he's on the chair (which is next to the counter) and he's attempting to finish Svea's cereal.  He looked at me like, "what's up Mom, just a little hungry with a huge grin of satisfaction".  He's too little to be doing this stuff:)  It was a really fun weekend with him and experiencing his little personality coming out.
