Back to School– 1st and 3rd Grade

Oh my I have kids…not babies, not toddlers, not preschoolers but KIDS.

Big lunch packing, bus riding, homework doing, all day school kids.

Willow- Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

I am in love…with my new puppy Willow.  She is so lovey-dovey and just yearns to be cuddled.  She is BEAUTIFUL..seriously every where we go people ohh and ahh all over her.  She is sweet with the kids but also really likes to play.  She already has great manners and hasn’t even barked once outside in the yard.

I couldn’t help myself and had to do a few formal portraits of her!

 

And a few more casual :)

 

And this is how she sleeps… couldn’t you just die–seriously its hard to keep our hands off of her.  Lucky for us the more attention she gets the better – as far as she is concerned!

Introducing my sister-inlaw’s new baby… Adidas is sister to Nike :) She is a Maltese and Shih-Tzu mix.

The kids have had a great time playing with her and she is as sweet as can be. When you go to touch her she melts into a flat little rug looking up at you with a ragdoll like face of nose and fur.

Her eyes blend right into her black fur and she looks like a sweet caricature of a puppy you’d see in cartoons.

“C” was not feeling the pink backdrop!

Puppy Sitting-Colorado Family Pet Photographer

My sister in-law has a new baby.  She is a Chorkie (part Chihuahua and part Yorkie). Her name is Nike.

Aunt J went on a little trip and left her with my mother in-law….we found out and asked if we could puppy sit for 24 hours.

My kids have been begging for a puppy, so I told them they could be in-charge. Hoping they would realize how much work a new “baby” was.

They did the feeding, potty breaks, and mess clean up all themselves.

Beauty is dying for one of these “purse puppies”  I was convinced they were too small and timid for my liking.

Nike might have changed my mind.  She was so fun, the kids were gentle, and my daughter was in heaven.

Beauty wrapped her in blankets, let the puppy chase her, walked her, took her out on the grass for potty breaks, and even cleaned up her “mistakes” inside.

She and Nike bonded, and when Beauty went to bed the puppy whimpered for her while curled up on my lap!

Now I am no fool, I realize this was only 24 hours and the novelty factor was there…but it did make me think it might be fun when we are ready for another pet.

Even my hubby admitted it might be nice to downsize in the dog department when the time comes,  after puppy sitting this little one (all 3 pounds of her).

He got such a kick out of watching our daughter squeal with delight and “mother hen” this little creature .

The kids cried when it was time to call my mother in law to come get her.

Beauty carried her out to the car and handed her to C who put her in the front seat.

I promised them  we can puppy sit again sometime soon!
