The Puppy Years

I got Lola at about 8 weeks old.  And of course I thought she was the cutest puppy ever.  (I am sure it is like that with human babies too.  Your baby is the cutest baby there is.)  Puppies are the cutest things until they actually start acting like puppies, peeing and pooping in the house, chewing up things, waking up in the middle of the night to let them out, etc.  And it goes without saying that Lola did all those things.

She was about 10 pounds when I got here.  Needless to say, she did not stay that small.  She continued to grow, as did her energy.

And she managed to get a hold of many different things and have fun chewing up many different things.

Obviously, she liked the wrapping paper roll over the toy.  Really, this is just an excuse to post puppy pictures. Here are a few more.

Lola after a hard day of play, and it looks like she is having sweet dreams.
