Hi everyone! Hope all had a safe 4th. This was Sophies first and she made it very clear from the get go that she didin't like the noise one bit. Poor old Roody couldn't have cared less. He is so easy going, nothing much bothers him. I honestly believe his doggy motto is "just go with the flow." Oh, my life is going to be so different without him in it. I don't mind saying that I am a little scared of being without him.

Sophie gets more and more sweet as time goes by. The minute I sit down she is either next to me or on me. She climbs up on my chest and lays long ways so that I can rub her belly. If I get up to go to another room, she has to follow. When I'm in the shower she tries and tries to get in with me. She was getting so upset when I would take a bath cause she thinks she has to be on my lap at all times that I started placing her doggie steps in there so she could sit by me. Well, after the second time that wasn't even enough and she got right in and on my lap! You could tell by the "Go ahead, don't mind me" look she gave me that I was going to have to come up with a new bathtime plan. I'm still working on one. It's hard to believe she will soon be 6 months old. I have her scheduled to be spayed later this month and then daddy, mommy and Sophie are heading to Illinois for vacation. Because of Roodys heart he gets to stay with grandma this year. Scares me so bad that he will leave me while I'm gone.

From the minute I saw her I was in love. Here was this little 2 lb ball of fur, big ole Gremlin ears and I had never seen anything so cute. The minute she was put in my arms she kissed me and wouldn't let me put her down. She went to work with me everyday for the first two weeks so I could work on potty training. She is so funnyShe will be sound asleep beside me and if I move at all she will be awake immediatly to see what I am doing. She refuses to let me get too far away. She got her first "spanking" (that's what we call any discipline. I actually just slapped the floor next to her) and it broke her heart and mine. She watched the cat use the litter box and the next thing I knew, she was laying in the floor eating cat poo. OOOOHHHHH Gross. As soon as I got done cleaning it up and sat down she came up slowly and got on my lap. She tried to kiss me but that didn't happen. She sat and looked at me for a minute as if to say "please don't be mad" and I couldn't resist her. I cuddled her and told her that she couldn't do that anymore and she laid in my lap and went to sleep. I know she's spoiled rotten, but I don't care. Even the vet said she could tell that she was rotten and a big mama's baby. Other than a few little problems, like potty training and temper, she is so perfect. I knew I would love her but this blows me away at just how much she means to me.
