Still too excited to wake up

Waiting to meet my cousin!

At the airport waiting to meet
cousin Dalton and Aunt Valerie.
So much excitement he fell asleep.

This must be why he can't hear the baby monitor

Naya snuck in bed with Jase this morning; this
must be why he can't hear the baby crying on the
monitor---Naya's paw is covering his ear!! I don't
know how he doesn't wake up! Don't you love how
she puts her head on the pillow too and spoons Jase.
Maybe he thought it was me? Either way I'll be
washing the sheets today.

Tough life being a dog

I guess there is a shortage of pillows in our
house since Moose is using Naya's head as one!

Ladies Man!!!

All the ladies at Aunt Barbs
had to check out our little
cutie pie.

Me & Mommy

Getting in a little snuggle time before we leave
for Easter dinner at Aunt Barb's house.

Easter kisses from Daddy

Isn't his bunny bib
too cute?? He kept sucking
on the ears.

Now we're pals

Not too sure of Mr. Bunny

Lauer and his Easter Loot

Geez, more pictures, Mom!

Lauer gets bored easily during our photo sessions.

Not another picture!

Ridin' my police car

Lauer's Easter basket

The bunny brought
Lauer a few treats too.
The little police car Easter
basket was from Randy and
Angela Danison.

Joxter got treats too!

No pig ear for Jox, tuna instead.

Naya's Easter treat

We got pig ears
for all of the dogs for
their treat from the
Easter Bunny.

The shirt says it all!

First actual tub bath

Lauer had his first bath
in his actual little aquarium
tub. The froggy bath cloth
is from Gramma's trip to
Vegas since Dalton loved his
so much too.
He loved the bath and actually
started to fall asleep in the
warm water. It lasted about
10-15 minutes then Waaaah,
ready to get out.

Rota boys

Uncle Mike taking
a gander at Lauer while
daddy holds him.

Matthew & Lauer

Ha Ha, get it?! Not the Matt Lauer from the 'Today'
show, We've
got our own version.
Cuter too! Check out
Matthew's big beautiful
brown eyes!

Cousin hug

Matthew really liked Lauer and kept calling him
"My buddy" and "my little cousin". It was so sweet!
He was so gentle with him. Matthew also has grown
like a weed!! We couldn't believe how tall he is, and he's
not 3 until June! Hopefully Lauer will get some of those
tall Rota genes.

Meeting Aunt Kathy and cousin Matthew

Aunt Kathy, Uncle Mike, and cousin Matthew
came over on Saturday to meet our little guy.

Officially "cordless"

Lauer finally
went "cordless"
on April 1 st--
No foolin'!!

We're not sure
if it's an innie or
an outie yet. Every day
it looks a little different.

Do these stripes make my butt look big?
