fritz sleeping with Papa this morning and in front of the fireplace last night wanting some water.I always ask him to shake a paw before getting it and he usually does.He had his porridge,toast and cereal,has been out twice,the first i was out too,shoveling snow,gues he didn't know it was me as he barked at me.He has already grabbed the towel off the couch and got a Kleenex from Dad somehow.Dad is fine,I can understand him better this morning, but there are moments when you can't .He even said i did a super job shoveling the snow..He has his leg braces on,that is helping him with support down there.
Fritz's portrait is back on the mantle .
thanks very much devon. I have been boo'd.

The picture of him under the table after stealing the towel reminds me so much of my Bella and she loves to take tissues just like Fritz! I am so sorry that your aunt is in the hospital but when we are sick that is where we need to be. I hope your dad will have a good day today. Just having little Fritz by his side must make his day a little brighter. 
Fritz looking for a toy or a towel to snatch ,sitting up for a treat from mom, cozied up to dad on the couch,Fritz in the window with the Cardinal,Fritz with his Ducky, its feet over Fritz's eyes and Fritz on the arm of the chair giving Uncle Barry a big smile. He has been up to his tricks again,grabbing towels and shoes,even my sister's shoes when she was here tonight to see dad,even shook a paw for her,Mom can't get a kiss out of him.We had Big Macs and Fries for supper,Fritz had his own,he come down to me and i gave him a dill pickle.Dad had half of his,i had the rest.He thought he lost weight,he is holding his own around 110-115 pounds.He has found a new way to get up off the couch,he has one hand on the walker and the left he has his cane and he is able to push himself up.He was quite proud of the achievement ,wanted me to see it,though i already had.Dad felt kind of sorry for me,having to rely on me to lift him up off the couch and hurting my back which is fine now.

This is picture of Fritz at around 9-10 weeks old and he he is getting an early start to shoe snatching.Picture was taken at our old house trailer.
Fritz with his four paws in the air.Here he is standing on Larry's legs.Larry had been trying to fix a knob that that had broken off the walker and was using it as a footrest. Fritz standing up on Marlene's lap ready to kiss her and Fritz up on Dad leg.Larry come and put the other railing on and dad likes that.Dad seems to be walking better since he put his leg braces back on.Sometimes,can get up fine from the couch,other times not,should be sitting in the new chair,did once.Fritz got into the shoes again yesterday,grabbing Larry's and my shoes and going under the dining rolom table with them,proud as can be.Fritz was waiting for mom to bring me back from the hockey game from the window,then went to the back door and greeted us.The Bowmanville Eagles beat the Bancroft Hawks 9-0.Fritz had his cereal,toast an porridge after he snoozed with dad on the couch,then went out in the cold,barked to come in i gess then had me get him weater,didn't drink it,mom filled it again and he drank it.He is probably back with dad now on the couch.
Fritz snoozing next to dad,covered by a tea towel,Fritz having a rest in the chair,I was there with him twice,he enjoyed it and Fritz having a great time playing with the neck collar,he was throwing it around and laying,just having a blast.Dad and I got real laugh out of this.Yesterday,Fritz tried getting Taffy interested in chasing him,no luck,so Fritz decided he run around the living room through the kitchen and back to the living room,did it three or four times.Taffy still has a little bump on her face, there is something on her back also,don't know exactly what caused it.Marlene is fine,the pain in her stomach comes and goes .Mom talked with Auntie bev on Saturday and Irene was still in the hospital that day,don't know how long until Mom talks with Bev later in the week .Irene has some sort of T.v in her room she can watch and i think the lap top computer.
Fritz about 20 minutes ago,outside in thew snow waiting to come in.You usually have to show him a treat to get him in,don't give it to him and tonight,it didn't work and had to go and get him to come in.Now it is my right side of my back hurting.Dad wanted the oil checked in the tractor,it is her unti. spring when Larry's brother-In-Law Don Jensen is going to buy it,we are just storing it here until then.I had to climb up into the trailer to get to the tractor.Stepped onto the wheelwell and then over ther side of the trailer.The trailer is going to Larry's other brotherIn-Law Al Flintoff in the spring.
