If Only We Could Bottle This Energy...

I had forgotten just how much energy a puppy can have. And I know the girls have certainly forgotten. Or perhaps they hadn't, but just were content to not have any puppies around to pester them.

Stormie, Shimmer and Breezy do all take turns playing with Cooper, sometimes two or three at a time even. But, they weary of the antics long before he does.

Yesterday was just such a day. Cooper was in a fiery 'play with me or else' type of mood. He just went from girl to girl.

First, Breezy was willing to play with him and participated in a little tug-of-war. I know the pictures are slightly blurry, but YOU try to capture action like this and not be a little blurry!

It is obvious who won the prize in the end!

Breezy gave up, so Cooper went on the search for another victim. Shimmer is the least likely to play with him, and in true typical little brother fashion, he knows this and will seek her out to torment her.

She was sleeping peacefully in one of the beds, but was willing to consent to a little tussle.

Stormie came over to check out the action for a bit, but wasn't interested in joining in.

Just as suddenly as it started, it stopped and it was time for a snuggle and a nap.

Needless to say, I am having a hard time staying on task with my sewing with so much fun and action going on around me. That's okay. He will only be a puppy for a short time, I am going to enjoy every minute of it!
