Man's Best Friend!



this is a funny story surprisingly. before we moved out here, i used to say how weird it is that crew doesn't seem very fond of dogs b/c he comes from a dog-lover family. he will pay a little attention to harley but for the most part, he's never been thrilled about her. he has seemed to be a little grossed out when he touches her. we, however, love our dog so much, she is more like a fur-child. she is our harley chick boxer that goes everywhere we go and waits in the car for us. we introduced them to eachother the day we brought crew home from the hospital, and they sit next to eachother in the car. but crew has never engaged in a relationship with her on his own. he's always played or climbed on her occasionaly and noticed her, but not with any real passion. UNTIL NOW!!! this is crew's new best friend. he loves her so much. it's like a 180 degree difference. he plays with her constantly, he lays on her, tries to feed the dog his binki, hugs her constantly, pets her, checks on her food/water bowls and notifies me when they are empty, talks about her continuously, calling her "hobby"...it's really cute. "hobby this and hobby that" and even when he talks to mimi or papa or anyone on the phone, he tells them about "hobby" the whole conversation. it's really adorable. i have concluded that he might be as lonely as i am out here and misses his friends so much that he has resorted to the dog! we love you harley/hobby!!

Cute picture. I am glad to hear he likes Harley now even if it is because she was his last resort.

i'm glad he has a new buddy. :)
that's a cute post. although the part about giving the dog his binky does gross me out, a little.
