Puppy Love

Haven't posted in a while, a lot happening around here and just haven't taken a breath. But good news on many fronts. Most importantly my mother is doing well, getting treatment and slowly getting energy back. It is just going to take time, but every day we see a little improvement. From where she was in January, she is talking, reading, a little walking. We are blessed.

Other news, our newest family member!! For Connor's 10th birthday I knew I wanted to surprise him with a puppy. I started looking for breeders (Yorkies! what else!) and finally found one who had females pups available and as if it was kismet, the breeder was about 3 miles from my parents and sisters house!!! 

Connor thought his big gift this year was NY Knicks tickets. He and I have bonded over basketball and the NBA since the Jeremy Lin Linsanity craze, so this was a gift for me too! He had been asking for a puppy for weeks and we led on that it wasn't going to be until summer. It truly was a surprise and she is just adorable. We are still working on a name. Annabelle took 2 weeks to name. Charlotte thinks she is the cutest and I agree!
