I'm a Mommy!

Yesterday was my birthday, so I'm legal now.  It actually snuck up on me, I forgot all about it until about Tuesday.

We're keeping the puppy!  When I saw her, she was such a bright orangy-red that I decided she had to be called Pumpkin instead of Cricket, because she's the color of pumpkin pie.  And she's beautiful.  For some reason, her beautiful face doesn't come off as beautiful in pictures, but she's still gorgeous.  Tons of people have commented on her color - apparently it's rare for a poodle to be so red.  But she's as sweet as she can be (as sweet as pie, lol).  And smart too.  And mostly house-broken, which is nice.  Here's a picture:



It looks dark on my monitor, but I think everything looks dark on my parents' computer, so let me know whether you can see it okay.

Also, thank you all so much for being so supportive.  I really appreciate you.  Tori, you're such an amazing friend.  I wish we were in a position to hang out more often (because it's been like, eons!).  Heart you.  Thanks for being there for me ^.^
