Big Yawns, Heavy Sleeps, and Blue Sweaters

Here are this week's pictures of Jack. :)

Okay, let's hear a collective, "Awwwwwwww!"

It was one of those days where it was absolutely freezing outside, so of course we had to put Jack in his adorable blue sweater.  And you know, when you've been playing outside in the snow, it's perfectly naturally to fall fast asleep soon after.

And sleep hard.

And adorably.

I have the cutest puppy in the world.


Of course, after a long, relaxing nap, Jack has to wake up eventually.  And he has to look adorable while he's waking up.

Actually, my mom and I desperately wanted to get a picture of Jack yawning because it makes him look so cute and sleepy.  When you rub the side of Jack's face with your finger, it makes him yawn, so Mom would rub his cheek and say, "Hurry, take the picture!"

We finally got one! Here is my darling Jack... and the family cat Oreo who lives outside.

Funny, because Oreo has never in his life been allowed to come inside.  When it snows, he can sleep in the garage or the barn to have shelter, but he's never been allowed into the actual house.  However, he always seems to think that if he stands outside the door with the dogs, we'll let him in too.  Oh, Oreo.

I love Jack's little blue sweater.


Here is a glimpse of how small Jack's paw is compared to my thumb.  He's so little.  We think he's nearly full grown at about three and a half pounds.  He may still gain a pound or two, but he doesn't seem to be getting much bigger.  His growth seems to have come to a halt.


And finally, I'd like to show you a picture of Jack trying out the snow.  He wasn't sure what to think of that cold white nonsense at first... but then he went insane and played in it like crazy!  He ran around and around and around our property.  You can see Jack playing in the snow here on my YouTube vlog.
