Growing pains

Well, Pip hit his 4 month mark this week.  I did some research on new behaviors he's been exhibiting (case in point: becoming the world's best escape artist from the living room barricaded area), and sure enough he's entering a rebellious phase.  Last night I tried my hand at dog grooming because he was gettin' a bit shaggy.  However, the last 1/2 inch that I was trimming off was the deep black/brown puppy fur.  Now he's all buff- colored and it's a lovely color, but he looks so long and dog-like & less puppy-ish.  My little guy is growing up.  He's never going to be huge, but he's not teeny any more.  Still, this morning I was holding him and he fell asleep in my arms while I stroked his back.  If he can always fit in my arms, I think I'll be ok.
