Hi all! Shelby here!! Six Weeks! Yes, Six Weeks!!
Today marks the 42nd day with my new forever family. It has been a busy week, but with moments of quiet time as I continue to settle in to my new home.
This week I met a new friend Lulu and she brought me a new toy named Lamb Chop (I love Lamb Chop), we went to the Puppy Spa for a haircut and I caught up on my puppy vaccines, and of course I spent lots of time with my new family. I even got Lincoln to run with me in the back yard!
With the weather colder, Dad isn’t golfing as much, so we spend lots of time together during the day and of course, he is my late night companion after Mom and the other pups head to bed. Dad is teaching me about painting and remodeling, and something called Netflix, and I am teaching him about the best way to hold my favorite squeaky toy to make it squeak the loudest!
My time with Mom is spent early in the morning after her alarm clock goes off and she is up readying for work. We snuggle under the covers and I fall back to sleep cradled in her arms, until that pesky snooze alarms goes off again, and sometimes again! But then something more exciting happens at the end of the day. My siblings must have special radar, because all of a sudden there is a frenzy of activity, and then the door opens, and there she is! Yay! Mom is home and we are all so excited, including our Dad! As soon as I realize it’s Mom I run back and grab my favorite toy to bring to her! The first time I did this it made her cry, because her first puppy Beemer use to do the same thing! I guess doing this is pretty special. I didn’t know, I just wanted Mom to know how happy I was to see her and to share my toys with her!!
Tomorrow we will be decorating for Christmas and us kids will be working on our Santa Lists. We posed for our Christmas photos – but you will need to wait to see these! (There is a little preview if you look closely at the photos.) Mom tells me Christmas is coming, but I am sure it already arrived!
