The time has come. Emmett needs to start earning his keep. For the first six months we took it easy on him because he was helpless and cute. Example:

We are no longer swayed by his little smiles and chubby cheeks. No more mooching! Now, every morning M is responsible for opening the blinds.

He also opens and closes the cabinets.

And, if he wants to go somewhere - he has to open the garage door.

And those bedtime books don't turn themselves!

He has also started cleaning training

and sous chef practice. After a few practice strokes...

he has no problem with this pepper!

We also let Emmett know that his blog viewers are bored and he needs to kick it up a notch in the trick department as well. He can now sit

for a few seconds.


He also grew a tooth. An acceptable week.
