The Holidays in Mt. Hood December 25, 2006






We are finally getting some much deserved sleep after our new adition, Averna, joined us in the end of November. She's been with us for 3 weeks now. She's doing great on the house training although the back porch is papered in piddle pads and newspaper, since she can't yet make it up or down the porch stairs. Of course the weather has been snowy, rainy, sleaty, and overall uncomfortable since she joined us, but she doesn't seem to mind the cold weather.

She loves my niece Vada and the feeling seems mutual. Apparently they are at about the same developmental level . . . no offense Vada! So this is the only thing we've done for the last three weeks, other than try and get work done in between potty breaks and short puppy-appropriate walks. We're obsessed. We haven't been out to dinner or away from her for more than a few hours, when my parents graciously agreed to puppy sit. Hopefully she'll be further along by the time we leave for our Boston trip in January . . . . wishful thinking?
