Jaggar ♥s his Dogs

The dogs are probably sad that we have more warmer days behind us than those that are ahead.  I'm sure of it.  The pool has almost gotten too cold for Jaggar (though he will get in for a few minutes), but he loves to spend all of his time outside playing with the dogs.  And by playing, I mean riding them, hugging them, chasing them, forcing them to sit, and trying to sit next to them/on them.  Mayer is a much better sport about it than Chanel is.  I think Chanel is just afraid that she will be injured, and that's probably valid.  But I have to give Mayer some points for enduring just about anything that Jaggar can come up with.  They are pretty cute together.
Mayer is actually on my lap here.  I don't know if he thought the few points he'd earned with me had earned him that right, but I couldn't breathe or get him off easily.  Jaggar thought that it was great.
Jaggar prefers to be free when he's outside.  This picture of him and Chanel is so awesome, but because of internet freaks, I felt it wiser to edit somewhat even though it's adorable.  There was one like this with Mayer on the other side, and Jaggar had his arms around each dog, but I missed that photo opp.  Chrissie said that I could do an instagram series on only Jaggar, and she's probably right.

Completely unrelated but worth noting, Jaggar still falls to the nearest surface when he doesn't get his way.  This instance was when he couldn't eat cake for breakfast. He will lay there indefinitely.  One of my friends said it perfectly when she said that cake is only acceptable for breakfast as an adult.  So true.

Man's Best Friend

I am not shy about saying that dogs aren't really my thing, and that goes especially for my own. I just think that it's way too much work for something that isn't human. But I am far outnumbered in that sentiment compared to the other members of this family, particularly this little boy. Jaggar LOVES his dogs, and as far as our 2 go, they definitely fulfill their purpose in providing joy to the kids by letting them do pretty much anything to them. And we never have to worry about the dogs hurting them. Otherwise, the dogs' time here would have ended long ago. So they are good for that, and they ARE good dogs. They're just...dogs. Jaggar is ALWAYS saying, "Mayer's my friend. And Chanel's my friend." So cute. I tried to get that on video, but this is the best that I could get. Notice Jaggar would rather say his favorite word instead. I think part of why he loves to swim so much is because he can be outside and play with them (squirt them with pool toys while they try to run). I got some adorable pictures of Jaggar with Mayer the other day. Chanel wasn't into posing.
Jaggar is always trying to ride Mayer.

This picture is like a miracle. My mom suggested giving this to Travis for Father's Day. He'd probably love it as a key chain. Travis is crazy about Mayer. He just thinks he's awesome.
Sweet, sweet
This is the best that I could get of him with Chanel.
Beautiful boy
