Introducing, at Long Last...

...the newest member of our household!

Name:     Charlie (full name: Charlotte)
Age:        Almost 9 weeks
Weight:    3.5 pounds
Breed:      Havanese
Other:      Absolutely gorgeous; a real charmer and extremely playful; very kid oriented; gentle & docile.  In just one day she has
               captivated my children...and their mother!

Here she is!

On the drive home from the breeder's this morning...in her booster seat.  She didn't last long there, though, as she cried most of the way home and ended up snuggled up against my neck while I slowly drove the 40 minutes home.

This picture makes her look a little lighter in colour than she really is, but she looks so adorable!

At the end of a very long day of playing HARD with the kids...tired!

I know I said we were doing this puppy thing for my kids, but I gotta tell you that I'm already in love with this little girl and want to secret her away for myself!

Now I just need to figure out this housebreaking thing 'cause my kitchen floor saw a few messes today!

Anyway, welcome to the family, Charlie!
