Growing Up

My little girl is growing up...

From the first day I saw her...

To now.


She still drives me crazy with her puppy energy but then I look at all the pictures and I snuggle with her while we take a nap and it's all OK. I guess this is just a little glimpse into what it's like to be a parent. That is, if your child is a 50 pound dog that can't talk...

Delilah...

is huge!

She went from this

to this

in just 10 weeks. How crazy is that?

Delilah, You're Irresistable

And home! As of today it has been a week since Delilah came home and it has been good times. Of course she likes to chew on my toes and everything else she can pick up but that's ok. She's cute enough to get away with it.

You can see the rest of the pictures here.

One Week Left

and then Delilah can come home!


These are just my favorites. View the rest of the album here.

She Walks!

I saw my beautiful puppy Delilah on Friday and she's walking! Apparently is she not only walking, she is also beating up all the other pups. I've been told she doesn't always start it but she always finishes it. That's my girl!

She is 4 and a half weeks which means only 3 more weeks to go until I can bring her home.

Puppies are Awesome

I took another visit to Delilah today. She is 15 days old and looks like a little teddy bear. I love my puppy!




She has opened her eyes and is starting to lift herself up on her front legs. She slept in my arms while I talked to Carol with a few amazingly cute yawns and whimpers.

I <3 my Delilah!

Puppies!

This little girly made my day yesterday...

I shall call her Delilah and she shall be mine. She shall be my Delilah! (Anyone not understanding the Finding Nemo reference should watch the movie, NOW!)

The Hoffmeyer's dog, Princess who is part black lab, part chow had puppies with a yello lab and they turned out like...

this!

They are one week old in these pictures, taken Tuesday, February 26, 2008.

And...

I get one!

Grandmama agreed that I could have a puppy as long as a) its a girl because boys are icky and Buster would not be a happy doggie (like he is anyway, grumpy old man) b) I pay for everything which is doable, possibly... I'll make it work, and c) she has somewhere to stay while I am away for the summer and the Hoffmeyer's agreed to keep her for the three-four months I'll be gone!

YAY! I get a puppy! I get a puppy, I get a puppy, I get a puppy hey hey hey hey! (Anyone not understanding the Little Rascals reference needs some serious culture.)

This little gal was whimpering in her box and right when I picked her up she stopped whimpering and fell asleep in my arms. aaaaaawwwwwwww!

My little Delilah!
