Three days ago we brought home our new addition to the family. Rosa Lee Reinhardt. She’s an 8-week old Chihuahua but I’m going to consider her a newborn baby. She comes with all the attachments; feeding, crying all night, teething and potty training. I guess this is great preparation considering we are planning to have kids in the next couple of years. About a year after we were married, we got our Siamese, Fanny Mae. She came with some responsibility, but for the most part, she’s very independent. So, this is a big jump for us. But a good one.

Steve’s step mom, Denise, was given Rosa as a gift from her neighbor. They already have three dogs, so she offered her to us. She has been so much fun. What a little personality. Fanny is slowly adjusting to the idea. I found them curled up together on the couch today. So cute!
