Angel Hair and Baby's Breath

Jesse!

We'd been talking about getting a dog for a very long time. Todd was out one day and found this little fella up for adoption. He called me and I said "yeah"! We named him Jesse and he's been with us two weeks today. He's almost three months old now and is so super smart and he loves to cuddle, play, and bounce around. His favorite activity is chewing though. He's already spoiled with puppy stuff and too much love. He likes taking walks or just hanging out in his pen in the sun. He only whined in the middle of the night a few times and Todd took him outside for a few minutes then back in the crate (I call the crate his room). Now he sleeps all night and just plays with toys in his room until we wake up. I've tried to sneak out to adjust the heat and go back to bed in the morning but he won't have it. "I know you're up, play with me!"

We think he's Maltese and Terrier, but we know he's our baby. Early on Todd had him out on the leash and he apparently went a little crazy. Todd told me about it and I replied now we really know he's our baby.

Speaking of baby, I didn't think we'd be the type of people who call a dog our baby but he'd chew and suck on our fingers at first because he was still so young. I told Todd we are his parents (he nodded). Now we refer to each other as Mommy and Daddy, yeah we're pathetic.

Hi!
I have a big head because
I'm perfect.
Looks like a bunny here!
King Puppy of the World!
Ah, a nap on the couch.
