My life is wrapping around this baby


It is amazing how such a small puppy can bring so much joy and so much work. She is testing her new teeth out on everything within reach and still piddles anywhere. Shelia is smart and now only poops outside - I know I know just what you wanted to hear about - not. No fantastic tricks except getting the entire house up at 5 in the morning. Her howls are kinda cute and we are starting to figure out a little dog speak. My motive of helping the kids learn responsibility may be noble in thought but sure is making my days busy. And I have to admit my floors have never been cleaned so often since Rachel was a baby. Shelia had the entire house until I blocked off the carpets, and then she promptly got a dog pen for a much smaller portion of my wood floor and now I'm scheduled to get a kitty crate. Hopefully her area will get bigger as her education improves. It sure feels like I'm the one relearning responsibility, I'm wondering just what or if my kids are learning anything.

I bet they are learning things, they are at least learning how much fun a puppy can be.
