Orwell is 6 months old!

[Kaitee and Orwell]

He is 50 lbs (as of last Thursday), and 23.5 inches at the shoulder. He is my big blue boy and is well behaved. He is still my constant shadow (as I assume he will be for the rest of his life) and will sit or lay by me while I make mac 'n cheese as I describe to him how to make it. He is a curious little boy. 

He was just neutered on Thursday last week and he is doing well in recovery. We had the cone on him for one day, but he's not interested in his incision so we took it off. His main complaint is that they shaved his tummy and it made him itchy for a few days. The vet techs made a mistake in shaving him more than was needed. 

Anyway, I just thought I'd post an update (mainly so Joanne doesn't worry ;) ).

And here is the part that people only care about:

I like his deranged look in this one. :P

LOL, Thank YOU!    

I am so happy for you and Orwell and I loved that you thought of me too!   Looking forward to more updates. My how far you've all come!  I'm proud of you, Kaitee 

LOVE the photos.  

[Kaitee and Orwell]

How could I not think of you? You did help a lot early on when it was most needed. (: So, thank you. 

[Janie, Jackson and Jilly]

This just makes me smile! I love your updates on Orwell! You two were meant to be! I can't believe he is 6 months old already! Love the photos.

AWWWW. . .   soooo cute.

[BG and Gavin]

What a beautiful boy! Glad for the positive update.

[Kaitee and Orwell]

Thank you all. (: Just to clarify, today isn't his 6 month birthday. Sunday was, but I was busy then and couldn't post. 

[Judy, Meg & Polly Wolly Doodle]

I want to see another picture of the dish after he masters making the mac & cheese you are telling him how to make...lol.

[Kaitee and Orwell]

Okay. But I'll have to stir it for him because of his lack of opposable thumbs. :P

[Julie, Eloise & Beasley]

What a cute BIG boy!  Great update.  Don't you wish they could use words sometimes?  (Ok that's weird when I type it out, but I'd love to know what Ellie has to say.  What must be going on in their heads!)

[Kaitee and Orwell]

It would definitely be interesting. (: I think most of what Orwell has to say is, "What are you doing?" or "Can we... [insert activity here] ...?"
