Yao's early birthday present

I got Yao rollerblades for his birthday but decided to order them early so he could enjoy them before the weather turned ugly. I always bug Yao to come running with me but he can't or won't. So now he can rollerblade beside me as I run-yeah a running partner! Here are some pictures of Yao trying out the new rollerblades by our house yesterday.

Syd gets a haircut

Syd got a haircut Friday-he was not happy & he let his stylist know by peeing all over her and the table . . . twice. He did survive the ordeal and here he is scarfing down his breakfast that had to wait until after the cut.
