socializing..

Essa has been having fun at the dog park. We've been hitting the park every day..and letting her run, sniff, explore, dig, and making new friends.

yesterday morning she got to meet Blitz..a weimaraner.. who was just beautiful! His owner said that weimaraners are suppose to weigh about 80 pounds max.. but his 'Blitz" was topping the scales at 120!!
He was solid and like a freight train! Essa gave him a run for his money.. and after about 10 min..we said our goodbyes. Once we got to the car..the poor lil girl was POOPED out! I think i heard her say.."Wow Mom..he was Big! Will i ever get that big someday?" lol..

lazy days...

while the cat's away...
essa and i will nap the day away..

..18 weeks...

being good pet owners

belly before:

poor essa-peppers had to go to the doc on thurs. to be spayed :( I didn't realize they were going to keep her all nite! :(
This momma missed her lil baby...it was strange not having her under-foot..or snuggling with her!
She's back home now.. with 5 lil stitches on her tummy :( Im torn..i would have sooooo wanted her to have babies.. I've never had the experience of a litter of puppies before. But..we are being responsible pet owners..and dang it..i hate it lol

oooooo that face!!!!

Lil Miss Essa..

im so in love with this face

Tippy & Essa

Tippy.. up on the ledge..for some peace and quiet away from Essa...

"please just play with meeeee"

Tippy runs just fast enough for Essa to keep up..

"I'll share my pretty leaf with you!!"

..got milk???

"If i close my eyes real tight and wish real hard..christmas might get here faster!!"

Essa is now addicted to chasing around the empty milk jugs!! I think its the sound of it along the floor or cement..and of course it has a convienent handle for her to carry it around with!

Essa Smiles...

..but not today...
its been raining..
all day...
and Lil Miss Essa no likey the raindrops...
needless to say..
we've had a couple of accidents in the house today :(
