It's A Girl!

We were thinking that there just wasn't enough chaos in our home... "lets add another dog"!
Welcome Family member #6: After the loss of Lilli, the hunt was on to find a semi-replacement (aka: a lap dog). Grandma Downard has been looking high and low for a good Chihuahua breeder. We happened on a lady in the Sam's parking lot that had these two 5 month old puppies that were 'too small to breed'. Great, almost out of their puppy stage at 5 months AND have already had all their shots! We'll take one. Well, of course the cute one with the perfect little head, long legs and proportional body was a yapping mess. So, I did the uncharacteristically Bri-thing: picked the squatty one with the unmatching eye color and good disposition (for a chihuahua). Chris says, "I guess beauty comes at a price". I guess so.

I think that this is one of the only times that I've held her. I can't seem to get a turn in the long line forming around her. Clayton won't let her down. He tells Charlie (the Aussie), "CHARLIE, we don't heard" and then he says, "I'm singing to her so she isn't sad". Lilli would've bit the fire out of him by now.

Even Laney needs her daily kisses. Thanks Grandma Downard for telling Santa to visit us a little early this year!!

She weighed in at a whopping 2.2 lbs at the vet today!

Poor thing doesn't have a name yet. Anyone want to vote? Here's the options so far: Stella, Izzy, Zoe, or Pearl.
