13 months

Jasper is not generally this squeaky clean, but he had just come out of the bath so we decided to go au natural for his 13 month photo rather than take a shot in jammies. You can see from this sequence of photos how active he is these days.

check out that belly!

even with being sick around the holidays and on a reduced diet, he still weighed in at 24.8lbs when we were at the doctor's office last week.

Last year, we took the very first "couch photo" the night of the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. Jasper sort of stayed up for that game, although he didn't watch any (lucky dog). The photo is nice to commemorate. The game was not. This year we did not keep Jasper up for the BCS championship game (lucky dog), and again that game is nothing to be relived in our memories. Let's just hope next year is better. (sigh) Apart from thinking of the games, I thought it would be fun to take another walk down memory lane and compare Jasper one year later.

In addition, Jasper's announcement photo (taken at 9 weeks) is with his little giraffe, so we took that out and tried to position Jasper for a comparison photo. Getting him to lay still is like asking an Aggie to paint their house burnt orange. So ... I think we got really lucky with the shot we have. Enjoy!
