I am soooo excited. I found out a bit ago that Maddie's and my Christmas present from my husband will be a baby yorkie! She will be Maddie's real sister as she will have the same parents. She hasn't been born yet...yikes...I hope there is a girl in that litter. I'm not sure when I'll get her...March, April or May...I will find out more info. I am so happy....but scared too! I just hope Maddie loves her new little sister and doesn't feel jealous or upset that we have a new puppy. One of the reasons he decided to do this was because Maddie had been so depressed, but she's snapped out of that a few weeks ago and I think it was probably that sore throat that took longer to clear up than what it should have.

Anyway, I will be anxiously awaiting the arrival of my little Libby. I've had that name picked out for some time and now I'll have my Maddie and Libby. YeeeeeeHaaaaaaa!

I came down sick for Christmas. I have a horrid headache, sore throat, aches, ear ache and feels like bronchitis. I think I will be staying home instead of celebrating. My sister was supposed to have Christmas dinner and she's also sick and so is my daughter. I think Christmas is cancelled.

Merry Christmas to all from Maddie and I! Hope you all have a joyous Christmas!
