fun at the park

Not too much going on this week (until later today) but me and mommy did get to the park yesterday afternoon. Look for some festive canine fun to be posted as today is KoKo's birthday.

Just a little update on how school is going...

I am in the groove and am happy to tell Mommy bye-bye right away now. It took a week but I have now realized 2 things, I have a great time AND Mommy always returns after a few short hours.:):)

Mommy joined in some classroom fun this week, we made homemade applesauce. As usual she had her camera so here are some fun shots.

swim lessons have resumed...

As you can see in the pictures, I am back in swim lessons after a couple weeks off. I am so excited because Portia & her Daddy will be with us every Saturday morning. We certainly had a great time this morning!

Fall fun continues

Me, Mommy and Daddy had a lot of fun at Silverman's Farm today. I enjoyed the pumpkin patch(as did Mommy, she said it makes for great photos) and we all enjoyed the tractor ride through the orchards. We had so many different of types apples to choose from so we just picked some of each. I think Mommy said she will be in the kitchen for days making applesauce and apple bread for friends and neighbors.

Fall is in the air...

As you can see it has been a little chilly here for a few days. I am still happy to play outside, we just have to dress a bit warmer.

Business man special or Mommy's boots???

perhaps I will just let Mommy enjoy her new boots as I seem to be struggling....

An Apple Festival...

What fun we had at the annual Monroe Apple Festival! We played games, listened to music, jumped in the moon bounce and had some snacks. I got a little excited (and confused) at the "duck pond" game and jumped into the little swimming pool, thank goodness I had my new rain boots on.:) My favorite part of the day was probably the caramel/chocolate covered apples, YUMMY!!!!!! As you can see from one of Mommy's pictures, the leaves are beginning to change. Fall is just around the corner.

Happy Grandparent's Day!!!

We wanted to say we love you all and hope you have a fantastic day. Mommy made many attempts to get Koko to cooperate and be in the pic but as you can see it simply did not happen. Either way, hugs and kisses to Mamaw Bettis, Nana, Gigi, Poppy, Didi, Grandaddy and all the Grandparents in the world.

A new place to play...

Me and Mommy spent a rainy day at a very cool place, Elephant Steps in Norwalk. I absolutely love to play in/around water so this was soooo much fun for me. Mommy said we will certainly be back as Fall is coming and the swimming pool will be put away until next Summer. So glad to know there are other ways to play in the water.:) I also had alot of fun in the jungle gym area, some of the bigger kids helped me get all the way to the top.

tomorrow is a new day.........................

Well, not off to the best start but we are going to hope tomorrow is a little better. I was "dropped off" at the playground gate and never looked back, mommy thought this was a promising beginning. Apparently Mommy was to stay on site, chat with other moms and peek through the windows if she wanted to. All was good until I escaped the classroom and happened upon the "parents area" which is where I saw Mommy. Everything was downhill from there and I just could not recover. My only request (for 25 minutes straight) was "mommy inside" and nobody was making it happen. Today was part of the "phase-in" and was only 9:30-11, I actually was given the okay to leave around 10:35. Mommy is worried I just know it but I will be okay.

Big day today...

So, this is the 1st morning I will be heading off to school. We will update later, cross your fingers the enthusiasm continues! "YAY SCHOOL"

Happy Labor Day

We celebrated a little early with a fun BBQ at the Lisanti's house yesterday. Me and Portia played in the sandbox, painted rocks, each other and the sidewalk with outdoor paint, as well as had a little dinner. Here we are playing "Ring around the rosie".

More Summer fun...

Not much "Summer" left here in CT but I am trying to make the most of it. We had a big time at the beach and Mommy's idea of icecream afterwards was super cool.:)

Everybody run!!!

Look who has the hose.....
We started out working on the gate but ended up with showers...well, Mommy & Daddy did:)):)
