Pat Them Gently

Pat Them Gently by Melanie O'brien is one of Lainey's favorite books. I don't think the concept is sinking in, however.

tugging at Sofi's ears and snout...

grabbing her head...

literally pounding her head... (like she would a table, high chair tray, etc.)

"Look Mom - I found a new best friend! Sofi!"

"She loves to give me kisses!" (And she does - it's really amazing. Sofi just licks and licks and Lainey thinks it's hilarious.)

"I wonder if Sofi would mind me waking her up..."
Lainey is trying to play with Lucy's tail. You can tell that Lucy is so not interested in making a new friend.

This post is cracking me up! I need to buy that book for Nora. My poor old beagle is too old for the kind of abuse Nora dishes out! The pics of Lainey and the dogs are HILARIOUS!

On a side note, no luck with the built-in straw sippy cup. My pediatrician says Nora NEEDS to be off of the bottle and on to a sippy cup by 12 months. I guess if she can't figure it out by 12 months, she's going to be doomed to only drink out of a bottle until she's 30...

When is Lainey's 9 month appt. again?
