Pop!!!....oops

[Angeleyes]

So I went to the price club over here for some house stuff with Keith, then to Target- we got Maximus some funny stuff to play with.


For me????? 3:00pm


Hmmm... let me see what this is... 3:00pm


But I can't fit it in my mouth... 3:00pm

I'm gonna make this fit! 3:01pm


Oops ... I shouldn't have done that. 3:01pm

What the?


Can I play with it?


Now? Come on!!! I can't wait any longer!!!


Can I show the camera my bulldog under bite???

[Lissa]

OMG - so funny!

That's exactly what Dodger did with his supersized ball too... They LOVE it when its inflated and Dodger liked shaking the deflated ball - its a shame they can't last a little longer!

Poor Maximus - did he play with when it was deflated? He looks so adorable in that first picture..."When is it okay, Mum? Now? Now? Now? PLEASE now!!?" Very sweet expression!

I guess we need to cap their teeth while they play with things like that

[Lissa]

OMG - you added more!!! LOL I LOVE that toy - Dodger needs one too!! Did you get any pictures with him playing with it?

He looks beyond adorable in the first picture with the horse and in the second its like "Come on! Enough with waiting - you are STRESSING me out!"..SO CUTE!

What a lucky boy to have so much fun! And good idea for you to have Maximus wait (work) for it!

He is such a happy boy!

[Lissa]

BTW - I think we need a picture of Maximus sitting on the horse

And I know I say this all the time but he is so puppy-like to me...I don't know if its his soft expressions or silly faces but he just seems so puppy-ish! It must be his joie de vie!

[Angeleyes]

LOL- exactly... nothing like that lasts more than a minute with him- but it's cute to see him get SO excited!

He played with it after it deflated, lol- I just finished picking up the remains of the poor yellow ball. Luckily he knows not to swallow things that aren't food ::knocks on wood:: so he gets SOME additional play time with those toys.

Joie de vie!= Joy of living? Right? If so then YES!!! He is a ball of "happy", lol... for real. It's funny because today we were driving to pick up my dress for an upcoming wedding (Keith's cousin) and saw a dog that looked JUST like Maximus. SO much that we stopped and got out to talk to the owner. I showed her pictures and when I went to pet the dog she was SO not as cute I expected, lol... is that horrible to say? I asked how old she was (expecting an answer of like 4 or 5) and the lady said "six months"... I was shocked! Maximus is almost 2 and looks WAY younger than this dog... perhaps the owner just doesn't take good care of her (which is the impression I got ). Puppy-ish is true though... especially because he actually makes facial expressions... it's soooo funny, he is VERY comical.

So Maximus got to shred the ball too? He must be having so much fun today!

Yup that's is Maximus is just so full of happiness...I know dog's live in the moment but to me Maximus is the epitome of that. I picture Maxmius showing he's happy all the time, no matter what - Dodger is too reserved!

What was that other dog's name? I feel so bad for dog's like that...I can't believe she was only 6 months!! It must have been neat to see a dog that looks so much like Maximus though...I think it proves what wonderful parents you and Keith are and what a special dog Maximus is...

Of course he did... he gets to shred everything after he breaks it! LOL!

Maximus is the kind of dog where if you come home, he gets wiggle butt and gives you kisses, when you wake up, he gets wiggle butt and gives you kisses. When you are sad, he gets wiggle butt and gives you kisses, lol- he's always getting wiggle butt and giving kisses.

I didn't even get the other dogs name... she didn't seem to care much that we stopped off of a major avenue to talk to her about her dog. She was like "Your dog is two? Did you get him from the lady who lives on Richmond Avenue?" ... I immediately felt my blood boil and walked to the dog (who was tied to a baby carriage with two screaming kids)... all while the mom began fighting with her other kid (who was about 3)...it was a disappointing situation.
