Unstoppable

 Now that miss thang can crawl she is into everything!  She seems to be so much happier though now that she can get where she wants to go.  She loves playing with dad's cans of snuff.  I don't know why but she just loves to hold onto them, she won't even put it down to eat!
 And thankfully Rocky is a much calmer dog than we ever thought he would be.  We were nervous for a while before she was born because he was just so wild and would move so fast without realizing how big he was.  But ever since she was about four months old he seems to have become a different dog.  I've noticed a couple of times that if she starts crying and I can't get to her right away he'll come and sit down next to her and put his nose next to her face.  And now that she can crawl she's all over him.  I have to say I still watch him pretty close when she's around him just because he's never really had any interaction with babies crawling on him and pulling at his jowls etc.  I've sat there and watched to see what his breaking point would be and what he would do when he got there, every time he seems to have had enough he just gets up and walks away and goes to lay down about 10 feet from her.  Sometimes if he's sleeping and laid out like he is here and she happens to come up behind him and grab him like she is, he may whip his head up really fast to look what's going on but then he just lays right back down.  I'm so glad he's much more gentle than we thought he would be.  Now Pixie...that's a completely different story!  Pixie will not tolerate for one second Korbyn pulling at her hair, she will nip at her right away.  I try to tell Korbyn "gentle" and take her hand and lightly pet the dogs every time she gets near them, but then she gets so excited and just starts pinching and pulling everything she can get her grubby little fingers on!  We'll get there :)


 She gets so interested in the tiniest things.  Colton would stick his gum half way out of his mouth and as soon as she would go to grab it he would suck it back in.  They played this game for minutes!  I thought she would give up a lot sooner but every time she would see it she'd go after it.
