Our newest addition


Meet Pixie!!! She's our newest addition. We just got her yesterday after church. A family from church had puppies. Actually it was one of my young women. (I am now recently in Cub scouts.)She is a malti-poo. Maltese and poodle. I've been wanting a dog for a while now. And was having a hard time finding a little one that Ty was not allergic to. He seems to be just fine with her. YAY!!
We are also trying to kennel train her. I'm definitely no pro at that. So I hope we're doing it right. She does have some tear stains, but we are giving her food that does not have red dye in it to see if it helps clear it up. I just gotta get rid of the hair that's already stained.

She's just so cute and loveable. Her favorite toy right now is a pink and white tug of war. I think it's her favorite cause it's the only one she can fit in her mouth. Her food and water are over by the kitchen sink. But she wouldn't go in the kitchen. The floor is too slippery. So I had to put my kitchen rugs as a runner so she can get there. Some minor adjustments for a cute little friend.


The boys love her. Teagan wants to carry her around everywhere. I have to constantly ask him to put her down. These last few weeks, if you asked him anything, he would answer that he's getting a "drill" puppy. That's girl puppy in Teagan talk. He was so excited!



Trenton wrote her a note. It says " Dear Pixie you are one funny puppy." "Dear Pixie you are cute." "Dear Pixie you are one loveubl puppy." Dear Pixie I love you." Then you flip the paper over and he drew a picture of him and Pixie. It has hearts and swirls all over it. That's why there's so many "Dear Pixie"s.

Well, if it's alright with you guys, we will bring her with us when we come. That way we don't have to pay for care. And of course so you can see her!

I'm glad you chose that name of the ones you were thinking of. Trenton makes me laugh with his love notes! And I thought I was so special because he gave one to me!

You can bring her. We may even be in our own house by then (cross your fingers!).
