Best Buddies

Barney and Ben have become quite aware of each other lately and no longer seem totally oblivious of the other's existence. Their blooming friendship - usually prompted by Barney's nosey nature - has lately consisted of Barney trying to lick the baby or smell him in all of the right places (as dogs do...yum, diapers!) and of Ben watching Barney closely, most likely wondering what the heck this big hairy thing is! We expect their friendship to grow even closer once Ben is eating solid foods and "accidentally" drops some on the ground for his buddy :).

For weeks we have tried and tried to get them to pose together and today I finally was able to catch them off guard, lounging around together. How cute!

Eyeing each other surreptitiously:

Relaxing together:

Smile, boys!
