Nobody can put a smile on our face like you do Fritz!! You're so funny! Barking at that reindeer doll must have been adorable. You're doing such a good job making sure everything in the house is safe. Good job Fritz!! Be a good boy! :)

I love the picture with Mom & Fritz. It's so cute!
More great pictures. Barry. When I said your Mom stays busy.....WOW!!! Her schedule makes me feel tired. Good for her. I'm glad you're both doing well. I can't wait to see pictures of the tree when it gets all it's leaves-maybe it's a sign from your Dad that it's doing so well. :) Kisses to that cute Fritz for me. :D
I'm still LOL at the picture of Fritz sitting flat on his butt!! LOL!
Oh Fritz... you are something else!! :D
Darling Fritz, I remember what a little snugglebug Tobey was when my Dad died. He was the one "person" I could rely on in those first few, hard weeks - you are doing the same great job. Well done little man.
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/cardynfritz.jpg Fritz with his buddy Cardy in the window.I saw a female Cardinal at our feeder this morning,that is the first time ever one has come to our feeder.Had some of my Bologna sandwich at lunch,wanted our supper,which was ham,Jelly Salad and potato Salad,hadn't ate his.I put a piece of ham in it,he ate it and did eventually eat it .He cleaned off crumbs off the plate from date squares we had,had a play with his Monkey and before my bath,had a play with his soccer ball with me.Had a bit of Muffin with me,is at Mom for some.
What a life you have Fritz!! Did Mom take you for a ride in her new car? Be a good boy. Okay? :)
We have alot of Cardinals here, Barry. I usually see the males but sometimes the females. They love the sunflower seeds I put out for them. I love to see the baby Cardinals too. I've had so many gorgeous birds this year at the feeders. One of my favorites is the Painted Bunting. I also love the giant Woodpecker(Pilated-I think?). They are so pretty with their huge red topknot.
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/headrester.jpg Fritz resting his head on the blanket this morning,in no hurry to get up.He was in no hurry to go to bed last night.I told it is time to go to bed and not long after he went up.This he had the cereal an dwould not touch my toast until he had Mom's which had Peanut Butter and Jam on it.Last I saw him,he was on the couch having a rest.
Make sure you get plenty of rest today Fritzie!! You'll need energy to guard the house. You're one cute little boy :)
Such cute pictures, he is such a character. Sure looks like he has you wrapped around his little tail. Thanks for sharing him!

Had some Bologna sandwich from me for lunch,barks and waves his paws for it,,had Hamburgers for supper,he is wanting that,hadn't finished his,had Ice cream and Date squares.Tonight,he grabbed the T.V. remote downstairs and went under the couch with it,did not want to give it up,he was mad and was growling,got it from him by offering popcorn,is now under the same couch,head sticking out.
The tv remote again Fritz?? I guess you weren't happy with the show that was on or.....you wanted to get some attention. Needless to say, you are one clever little fella--every day and all the time.
We love your pictures. You're such a little dynamo!! :)
Ohhh.. I wanna rub the belly!!! :D
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/riser.jpg Fritz rising up to start the day,Mom is starting to stir also.Had his toast and cereal like any morning,got up with mom while she read the paper,then to me and wanted his chin rubbed,then he flipped over on his back.I have been a little busy,had to cut my sister's lawn,rake up the flower beds, took out latice work that dad and i had put around the flower beds and tree out back.Marlene said they just trapped leaves,didn't want to do it while dad was alive,he wouldn't have wanted it.Larry's Brother-in-Law came and got the rest of the scrap wood we had in the shed,cleaned out and straightened it up, and washed my truck.Our neighbor may end up buying the truck mom traded in 2 days ago.When i had first got back,Fritz was outside for fresh air,came in and went on a tear and grabbed a shirt out of mom's bedroom,got it before he went under the table with it.After whille,going to get a new printer,this one i can scan pictures with this one now only prints,mom found pictures not long ago of Fritz when we first got him and the only way to see them is to scan them to the computer.
OMG. I would LOVE to see Fritz pictures when you first got him. Did you adopt him from an organization, buy him from a breeder? I don't think I know his background. Perhpas you can share it when you scan his baby pictures.
Fritz, you're really on a roll aren't you? What a character!! We would love to have you come over and play with us!! :)

Ooooh I love the Fritz baby pictures. What a precious little guy he was and so tiny! :) Barry, it was wonderful to see your dad in that one picture, healthy and smiling. I know that is the way you want to remember him. I didn't realize that Ruffles was a black miniature poodle. That's what my Ripley is. I hope he lives as long as Ruffles. :)
