New Additions to the Family...

Ah, no, I am not pregnant.

Just needed to get that out of the way first...

The kids are getting puppies tomorrow night, and they can barely stand the wait...
Nana got each one a scottish terrier for their birthday present (both birthdays are in July), and the pups are of age now for them to come to our home.

These pictures were taken a few days before we went away on vacation... Nana is getting the puppies from her sister, Peggy, who has been breeding dogs for over 30 years. We went to Aunt Peggy's house for a visit, and try to decide which ones the kids wanted to have for their own.


As it turns out, Elizabeth and Cub both decided on a black one. All the better for Mommy not to know which is which, but I am sure I will once they come to live with us...

You may be wondering what their names will be? Well, surprise, surprise folks! In yet another tip of the hat to Disney's Toy Story II, they will be called Woody and Jesse. EJ wanted to call hers Jasmine (for the Princess in Alladin of course) but the dogs are both boys, and so a compromise was struck with naming hers Jesse. I know, in Toy Story Jesse is actually a girl, but it can be a boys name, so it worked.

Amen.

A thousand pictures will soon follow of all the puppy joy that is bound for our house tomorrow night...
