Little Miss will be a whole year old in a month and 6 days. I can't believe how fast time has flown. She's gone from an itty bitty 5lb 7oz preemie, to a 18 pound walking, talking machine! She's shown all the doctors who said she would be 'delayed' in her milestones due to coming nearly a month early, and she took her first steps at 8 months, was full on walking by 9 and is now climbing and running at 10! We're super proud of her, and how much she's grown and changed. She's turning into quite the fun, loving, adorable little person.
The dogs love her, I don't have any pictures of them all together, because it's all just a blur of tails and squealing baby when I try. I have yet to take one that has turned out! But that's okay.
Here she is just before Christmas
After a bath!
And sitting in her chair:
Oh Chelsea--she's gorgeous! So glad that human pups can also tell their doctors to "stuff it" when they try to predict the future! I guess you were thrust into baby-proofing before you were quite ready for it, weren't you? I'll bet Dante has learned to wake up and move really fast!
Our hairless bipawd grandpup-human just turned 7 months old, and she was 3 weeks early and a couple of ounces heavier than your Little Miss. She is also big, mobile and going to show everybody just what damage she can inflict! She likes to grab hold of poor Evelyn's floppy chops so we're trying to teach some new words, like "no" and "easy." So far she just laughs.
Thank you so much for checking in and updating. The last picture I remember, she was just as adorable but considerably smaller.

From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
Warms my heart to hear of another little showing the world how tough they are! 
7 months already? Holy cow! Time really does fly, last I knew she was just a little bun in the oven. And who are we kidding, Dante would have to stop moving and sleep, in order to learn to wake up and move fast 
Pretty sure he's the one who's taught the little miss all her tricks!
Good luck with the "No."! Mine knows it, shakes her head and does it anyways! Or conveniently has something more interesting to tend to, or look at...and refuses to even glance in our direction, as if she can't hear us at all! I think Miss Evelyn is do for some pestering herself anyways 
Oh. My. Dog! What a sweetheart, her eyes are gorgeous! I'm so hoppy you found time in between the chaos to share these.
She's growing up too fast, tell her to stop, I feel old! Wow. I can't believe she'll be a year old already. Congratulations Ma, you've got quite a fun little bi-pawd on your hands.
Do you think some liver treats will help her get over the "no" issue? 
Heh heh
