As you may remember, in March, Mia (Patience) came home to George and I. She is from Lori's (aka- Maggiesmom_2007 ) beautiful girl Friday, and littermate to Peppermint. Well, Friday will be retiring soon, and had her very last litter on Mother's Day. I am bringing home the little girl. She will be 9 weeks old tomorrow. I get her Aug. 24 (15 wks.). A dear friend is bringing home one of the little boys the same day. The other two boys are being held back for showing. So, Mia is getting a new little biological sister. I love that we can have puppy play dates with Toby, and Lori can watch them all grow up together. George is making it clear that this will be HIS little girl. He named her Ali (I like it spelled "Allie" better), and he even puts a heart over the "i" when he spells it. OMGosh! Is this the same man? In just one year, Yorkies have turned my big, hulking, construction worker husband, into a sweet, baby talking marshmallow, and I've loved just sitting back and watching this happen. We are so excited, and counting the days until she arrives. In the meantime, Lori has been great about sending us lots of pictures. Poor Lola will now have two little monkeys tugging on her ears. Lucy sleeps most all the time now, so I don't think she will care very much. This will be our first puppy. I'm sure I'll be hitting the YT puppy library a lot! I couldn't wait to share our good news.
