Getting sad :(...but only a little

[Jasmean]

Yoshi is growing perfectly, but i get so sad when she does these milestone things like jumping down off the high bed and learning to jump on the couch! As i dont have any kids i feel like a mom who's baby is growing to fast! is that weird?? lol

No, not weird to me. I have no skinkids, so dog milestones are fantastic!
Speaking of jumping, though, I bought my daredevil stairs for the bed and am TRYING to get him to use them to instead our jumping back down. So far, mostly unsuccessful, so I bought insurance for those possible future orthopedic surgeries! I tried covering the floor with soft stuff like pillows and blankets, but that just made him jump even further in order to miss the obstructions in his landing zone.

Oh they love to jump!!! Not weird at all. But, Please Please be careful. There was a Yorkie on this site who broke it's leg I think last week from jumping off a high bed.

Post pictures of your baby so we can all see!! My 11 mo. old has changed so much that she actually sits still now when I pet or brush her. She was a jumper too but I had to make her stop. I knew they were sensitive little things but I didn't know in the beginning that jumping was so hard on them.

LOL!! My little one is the same way. I have stairs at the end of my bed and he will jump on and off the bed right next to the stairs. I think with my guy, it takes too long to navigate the stairs. It's quicker and easier just to jump up and down.
