What better way to spend a summer afternoon than nappin' on your dog?

Mavis the Experimental Model


For a few days, Mavis was really fascinated by the camera and wanted to pose. Here, she wanted to see what she looked like with her eyes closed, which I thought was very interesting. Do you know what you look like with your eyes close?

Mavis the librarian.


And Mavis the Punk Rocker, which you may have seen featured on her infamous 2nd Birthday Party invitations.

Traveling Economy



In June we made a quick trip to Tulsa. Fortunately, Mavis fit within the luggage sizer, so we were able to take her as a carryon and didn't have to check her. The hard part was deciding between overhead and under the seat in front of us.

Dylan Comes to Visit

In May, Dylan and her parents came to visit. Mavis had a great time -- even shared her swing and volunteered to push.


Sharing can only go so far, though. Mavis "bowed up" and got in Dylan's face when she tried to use Mavie's ball-blowing toy.


Mavis eventually let Dylan play with it, but didn't tell her that if you look into the hole, you get a big blast of air in the face.

Catching Up.



Yes, I know it's been 8 months since our last post. I know, I know. Lots of catching up to do. So here it goes:

Back in May, I thought this was an amazing picture because Mavis looks so grown up. Now she looks that way all the time. The "soft lens" effect was achieved through the application of some unkown sticky substance to the camera lens. It took dad a couple of weeks to spot the problem, so all of our photos from this period look like they were set up as shots of Cybil Sheppard in Moonlighting.
