Happy Birthday, Ellie!

A year ago this week, we welcomed this furry little baby into our family. I had promised Isabel she could have a girl puppy someday, since she didn't get a sister when Gabe was born. So...we drove to an Amish-connected farm in Kentucky and picked Ellie out of the litter of four toy fox terrier pups, and we have never regretted our choice. She is the best little dog you could ask for, and so stinkin' cute to boot. From a four-pound ball of fluff to a nine-pound bundle of energy that can even keep up with Gabe...Ellie had us at hello :)

Ellie "opening" her birthday presents...a new bigger bed and toys and gourmet "doggie cookies"...yum!


Gabe "sharing" Ellie's toys...he just can't stand someone else getting a present. Man, he must be three or something!
