I Smell like Ha'Bibi

We welcomed Ha'Bibi (arabic for sweetheart) into our lives last night... a 6 week old D-orkie pup, who was one of a litter of five puppies born to our neighbors mini-Dauchsand and Yorkie. What an eventful first night it was! Luckily for me, Sheri's motherly instincts kicked in and she took the graveyard shift until I came downstairs to relieve at 7 this morning. It has been nearly 2 years to the day since we brought 'Zona home, and we forgot how much 'fun' puppies can be!

Ha'Bibi is absolutely adorable, and even though it was tough to say goodbye to her brother and sister last night, we've already discussed a family reunion with mom and dad when she's grown up. It didn't take long for Ha'bs to adjust to her adopted home, with a tendency to climb out of her cardboard paradise and play with Zona. We're so glad to see the girls getting along, even with the considerable size difference. Ha'bs loves to lay on mom and dad's chest and isn't stingy with her kisses - she's even helping me edit my post (quite a curious nature). If only she could help us finish painting the nursery - more pics to follow this week!

We are in love and now have one more thing to be thankful for as the holidays approach.
