"Little Grasshopper"... Gizmo

Gizmo does this 'little grasshopper' thingie... Or maybe it is more like how a newborn fawn reacts once they figure out how to use their legs... It's like a spring straight up and jump... Landing, then doing it again several times... It is quite comical to watch, almost like he lands on hot coals and has to quick jump again...

We had a visitor to the house yesterday and like me, the visitor was shocked once he was able to cuddle and feel Gizmo's coat... It is incredibly soft like a baby's butt... You're not expecting it to be that soft when you look at Gizmo... And then you just want to stroke and pet him, especially that little piglet's butt!

Gizmo readily hands out kisses but he's not much of a cuddler right now... He's just TOO busy exploring and moving around like most puppies do... Gracious, is he tiny!... If I cup my two hands together and hold him, nothing is hanging over the sides!

Throughout the day, I would put Gizmo and Nacho together for mini play times... They'd play, play, play and when Gizmo got tried, he'd cry and want back in with Sunshine... Despite what I heard at the shelter, I'm not so sure Sunshine is his mother... She's certainly not overly loving towards him like most moms are... But he's bonded to her even if she is not his mom... Especially when he's ready to take a nap or sleep... We're going to extend the times Gizmo spends with Nacho until eventually Gizmo and Nacho are together all the time so we can intergrate Sunshine and start working more with her...

Gizmo is just so precious, he makes you melt... It's not just his petite size, but the way he looks at you... And that little butt? It's to die for!
