DAY NINE

The girls were playing today for the longest time under an umbrella on the couch. They had a "picnic" (lunch) there, they played shadow puppets and just relaxed.

Then, the kids were so excited to find out that we were going to see our future new puppy!! I had seen her earlier this week, but they got to go meet her. She is a week and a half old and so sweet. She's a Lhatese (Lhasa Apso and Maltese). She'll be ours in 6-7 weeks. (We decided to pool all of the Christmas money we got from Grandpa and Grandma to buy a puppy- that this would be way nicer than any ol' toy!)

So, the first shot is natural light and nothing done to it, except a fun crop. The rest of the shots are for pure cuteness and documenting the meeting- they are flash photography in a dark bathroom.
