Title: Is it a bird, is it a plane? Riley believes he can fly!
Post by: Tiggy's Mum on March 03, 2008, 01:34:46 AM

Took these pics of the boys playing tonight.  I'm so proud of Lucas as he has never been very good at jumping in the air but he did some amazing jumps tonight while trying to catch da mouse.  Missed some of his best 'airtime' but here's a few of my special boys.  Their feet are actually off the ground in the majority of these but the carpet is deceptive!

Riley shows him how it's done...

Woooooow!!!! :wow: :wow: :wow:  Your camera rocks almost as much as R & L!!!  We have so tried for some awesome action shots but our camera is unfortunately too slow, we press the shutter as Oliver takes off, but by the time it actually takes the photo he is walking away. >:(  As soon as we recover from all the expenses from last year on flat rebuilding, we MUST get a good camera!!

Congrats to Lukey by the way on your improved jumping skills, definitely helps to have such a master like Riley as a bro ;D

fantastic shots and well done Lukie!!! But I am even more amazed at Riley's restraint. Does he really just lie on the back of the sofa and let Lukie play?!! It turns into a complete free-for-all in my house ...

*sung to the tune of R Kelly - I believe I can fly*

Ri believes he can fly, Ri believes he can touch the sky, he thinks about it every night and day, spread his wings and flies away, he believes he can soar, he sees him running through that open door, he believes he can fly, he believes he can fly, he believes he can fly....

Well done, Riley!  ;D

Jaffa's the same in that he's a runner rather than a jumper, but he was jumping last night playing with da mouse!

My goodness, I thought Oliver could jump but... well, you said it Helen, Riley flies!!  You named him wrong, he should have been called Michael Jordan, three cheers to his airness!! ;D

What great pictures and thats flying  ;D

My camera slow too but can change the settings but dont know how it would work.........need the manual and a few hours to do anything.

As far as I know I only changed cards but now the counter has gone back to nought and keeps restarting grrrrrrrrr.

Brilliant.  I wonder how much time us humans spend flinging Da Bird and Da Mouse around?
