What a gorgeous gal! Gaia was about eleven months old when these pictures were taken (early August), so we missed her birthday. Darn it! Sorry, Gaia.
Such pretty eyes… and such a winning smile.
She also has remarkable ear-hair. Am I allowed to compliment her on that?
Gaia is quite food-motivated. She spent around 1/3 of her time looking at various food that people left on the ground.
…and another third of her time successfully slurping up some whenever mom took an eye off of her.
