Who Me?

This is Roxie's home when she needs to nap, relax, or get away from her sister Cosby. The clock is to make her think she can still hear her brothers and sisters hearts beating next to her while she's sleeping. Notice the floor to ceiling gate set up since apparently our puppy is half monkey and can scale 3 ft pens in 10.2 seconds to freedom.

Steph made her a cute nametag for the outside of her crate. Fast forward 5 days and it was chewed up and destroyed. But she sure loved it! Who me? I am dirty and stinky and need a bath??

But Mom... I'm scared of going down the stairs!! Don't make me learn how!

After a trip to the vet this week we learned that she 9.4 lbs now and is probably part beagle and part terrier. She really does look like a black and brown Jack Russell terrier doesn't she? There does our dreams of medium size dog... I think we ended up with a small one! But thats ok, we still love her. And according to Joe, he is super excited because terriers are good at obstacle courses like the ones you see dogs running through on tv. $20 I find an obstacle course in the backyard the next weekend I am at work.

Roxie's Home!

I have been out of the blogging world for a few weeks now. We spent the last week in California and just got back on Saturday. I will have lots of posts to come about our trip, but my time has suddenly been cut in half due to a certain little someone we picked up on Sunday afternoon. Meet Roxie (yes, I know I originally spelled it Roxy, but Roxie with a heart over the "i" is just so much cuter). She is 7lbs 15oz, loves sticks, rolling down hills, and can run faster than we ever expected!


Cosby isn't too sure about this little puppy so far. This is a pic of her watching us play outside. I think she is plotting Roxie's demise in a slow and methodical manner. It's been hard because Roxie thinks Cosby is just another one of her sibling puppies to play with. She has no idea what a cat hiss means yet. I am sure she will find out soon, but for now we are trying to keep them apart since Cosby has a good 5 lbs on her.
