Our New Baby



I'm a little teacup short and stout here is my picture wow what a cute snout!
We got a teacup Yorkie yesterday from a private breeder and just wanted to add her to our family blog. I've wanted a tiny Yorkie for years now and Will finally got tired of me asking so at Christmas he caved in. I figure if I can't have any real babies I should have some sort of baby to snuggle, plus they don't shed, have real hair not fur, don't bark much, are inteligent dogs and best of all fit in most of my purses! :o)
It's taken me a little while to find one that was on sale because I bargain shop on everything including puppies. :o) She is 9 weeks old and weights .84 pounds. Her Mom was just under 5 lbs and her Dad was only 2.4 pounds so she should be small. They say at 8-9 weeks you triple their weight and that is what they should typically be full grown. These little dolls live to be anywhere from 12-20 years old so we anticipate on having her for a long time. :o)
Look at these cute faces!

Calvin & McKenna love her to fists well just yelling so far! ha ha
They hold her non-stop and only smile when it's their turn
Finally Kenna put me down that's Kenna's hand :o)


We had a rough first night but that is typical and because she is so cute I'll forgive her for keeping me up! The kids adore her and Will is starting to warm up to her even though he had to leave our room last night to get some sleep. We haven't come up with a name that we all agree on yet so do you have any suggestions? please :o) All worn out! So cute!!!
