Most pathetic thing ever

Maceo is definitely miserable. But he may be milking this whole thing too.

Poor poor Maceo

Maceo has had a rough spring. About a month ago, he and Mike and Skadi were out for a hike, when Maceo decided to charge downhill after a rabbit. He hit an berm going full speed downhill and ended up tearing all the ligaments in his front left wrist/ankle. He needed surgery, which he had yesterday. He spent last night at the doggy hospital and we picked him up this morning.

So here he is, resting in my office. His recovery period is LONG -- 3 months to recover physically, and then another few months to re-learn to use his front paw. So everyone send Maceo good thoughts and wishes!!!!

Skadi LOVES to read

We were home in Minnesota this weekend, and my sister got Baby Skadi a book called "In My Tree." We've read to Skadi in the past, but she never seemed really into it, so we sort of let it fall by the wayside. She was just too little to really pay any attention to the books.

Things have changed. Skadi LOVES books now. She was really enthralled by this book, as you can see by the photos. I think these photos are so funny -- she is really trying to figure out what is going on in the book. Needless to say, we'll be reading to her a lot from now on.

Shaved and cold Maceo

Maceo got shaved yesterday (his yearly summer shearing). He gets so cold when he is shaved, and he was so exhausted from the stress of being at the groomers all day. So we covered him up with a blanket and let him sleep the night away on the couch.

We love him so much.

Kickin' it, urban style

She's donning her hoody and her jeans are sagging. She is hip and urban

BD Skadi

Skadi had a big day today. She got up and went climbing in her Black Diamond onesy. It's really hard to rock climb when you can barely hold up your head.
