Baby Tested and Approved

The only concern Jrock had with getting a puppy now is that the pup wouldn’t be ready for kids when they arrived. I am happy to report that there is nothing to worry about – Laughlin is definitely kid-friendly!

The story: My poor friend L called me Sunday saying “where are you?  Where is the Picnic?” – she had showed up at our OKFCA event a day late. Ooops!  So I suggested she stop by our house with her two little ones on her way home.  We had a prolonged lunch together (fresh homemade bread – yum!) and the kids ran around on the deck.  I am sure glad I built those gates for my godson’s visit, I tell you.  The whole deck is like a big outdoor playpen

As I said, it turns out we needn’t have worried about Laughlin behaving himself.  The two kids – D is almost 2 and her little bro J is 9 months (I think) – well, they are pretty used to dogs.  Maggie and Laughlin had a great time licking and playing with them.

Laughlin is teething really badly – he’s almost lost a tooth a day for the last week! – but he didn’t gnaw on them once.  Good puppy.  Here are some pics below, but the real gem is the video. Be prepared for SUPER cuteness, times two.

Thanks for stopping by, L, and giving my puppy a workout!
