Milestones

When we got her, at 12 weeks old, Airlie weighed 12.8lbs.

At her vet visit (one month ago this coming Saturday), she weighed 14.9lbs.

Today we weighed her on DH's certified wrestling scale- she's a whopping 18.6lbs!

Also, Airlie has lost two of her puppy teeth, one on top, one on the bottom (opposite the top one). I kind of forgot to keep an eye out for this, and only noticed today, when we were playing Frisbee (finally, after a week of cold, wet and no sun). I thought I saw one missing. Further inspection showed the second, newer empty space. I think she may have lost one more before this, because there's a little stump of tooth poking out in an odd spot...like it came in in front of a baby tooth and still needs to move back into it's proper place.

Last week she managed to get herself up on the bed. We don't make a habit of allowing the dogs on the bed until they are finally tall enough,  and strong enough to figure it out by themselves. Until now she's just been placing her front paws on the mattress and hopping up and down. However, after her nightly trip out to pee one night, she got a running start, took a flying leap and there she was. She's done it again a few times since. She still needed the running start for most of last week, then, today, when I was changing the sheets, she just hopped right up.

Last night she took a running start and a flying leap right into my lap as I sat here at the computer.
