MIMI AND BLAKE

Mimi and Blake had a good time running the trails. At times Blake would poop out and had to rest, not our Mimi though. Then there were the times when Blake would get upset with Mimi over who is the leader.
Blake: Dottie?
Dottie: Yes?
Blake:I'm the leader and Mimi is NOT LISTENING TO ME!
Dottie: Blake honey, Mimi has a mind of her own so you'll just have to get used to it. (which is what all the dads in our neighborhood tell their sons about the girls in the hood.)
Then all was well in their little world and they went back to running and jumping everywhere.

PAPA AND HIS NEW GIRLFRIEND

Little Bailey is soooo in love with Greg. Wanted to follow him everywhere and cried when she couldn't because mama Keri would hold her back at times. I guess it's just that animal magnetism that he has that turns even the littlest ones on.

DAY TRIP TO MOUNT RAINIER

Yesterday the weather was gorgeous so mama and papa decided to take Mimi and her friend Blake and his mom Keri and sister Bailey up to Mount Rainier. It's too bad that his dad Wade had to work and could not join us. We started off the trip by having lunch at the Black Diamond Bakery which is very popular among the locals here. Mama did not think about taking pictures of the area here until too late. Will have to do that at another time. The area still looks like the old west. Then it was on up to Mount Rainier. We can see Mount Rainier from home, but when you get up close, it is gorgeous. A good time was had by all. Dottie
