1 year ago today...on July 13, 2008, I got a call around 6:30 am telling me that little Ellie was on a American Airlines plane to Austin, to arrive a few hours later. I went back to sleep for a while & then my mom came over & we headed to the airport!
Her flight was a little delayed, but she soon arrived in a little crate filled with newspaper...she weighed only 2 pounds. This is our 1st picture together:
Once we got back to the apartment she immediately made herself at home, peeing on the carpet (one of the only accidents she had), and went to snuggle in her pink puppy bed.
I can't believe it's only been a year! I never thought she'd teach me as much as she has...patience when she takes forever to find a place to poop, preparations for kids one day the nights I am up with her when she's sick, and just learning to take care of something other than myself.
Happy 1 year anniversary little one....your gift is me home all day with you...even though I'm home because I'm sick, so there will be more sleeping & less playing....sorry :)
