A Boy and his Dog: year nine

I usually take pictures of Hopper and Mr. Bean together right around Hopper's birthday because it was right around then that in my fugue state of being 9mths pregnant, I decided adopting a puppy was a good idea. Thus is my annual reminder to remind you to never, ever allow 9mths pregnant women around orphan puppies.  But, like everything else this year, I am far behind and we just got in our annual Hopper/Bean photos this morning, impromptu-like. They still like each other, nine years later.
