You can call us crazy if you want to...

Well, Greg and I celebrated the last days of having a little one and the fact that I am not pregnant (this is a record since our marriage began) with the purchase of this sweet little cutie. Well, Actually...

none of that is true. We completely purchased her on a whim..

Just to keep life exciting.

Seriously though, she is a GREAT dog. I knew it from the time I saw her. And, she had me when she crawled in my lap and put her paws up on my shoulder.

I'm not a dog person AT ALL,

so it was a little strange getting attached to something so furry...

so fast.

She's a pure bred Irish Setter.

She seems to be very smart and very much of a people-pleaser.

We have had her since Saturday and she is already coming at command.

She follows me around the house,

and when I am in the kitchen she will literally just lay down next to me on the floor.

She is very sensitive to tone and emotion. A small reprimand for biting will stop her

and she has already begun alerting me when Addie is up from her nap.

She is concerned when she hears crying.

This is a very loyal breed, and although they are not know for protection,

they actually become very protective of children.

I can tell that she is going to be a great family dog.

And this is so fun for the children to experience a puppy!

Yep, were keeping life exciting here.

She is so sweet and fun!
