A Mother's lap...

Rubes, Ru-Ru, Ruby-Girl, Ruby McRuberton, etc., etc.
Oh, little Ruby, Rubes, Ru-Ru, Ruby-Girl, Ruby McRuberton, etc., etc. She has certainly made her mark on our family! We have had her for over a month now and she is doing so well! Potty training is going well, she sleeps through the night (although she is quite the early riser!), she does well in her kennel while we are at work, and she LOVES to snuggle in the evenings!
Eli is doing very well with her and is very confident with things such as picking her up by the tail (Nick and I both screamed, "Eli! Put! Ruby! Down!" upon seeing this), snuggling with her while watching a movie, carrying her around, giving her treat, etc. When Eli picked Ruby up by the tail, the poor thing just made a little squeak. She is a pretty quiet dog and she is so very gentle. As quiet as she is, she sure does have alot of spunk and personality.
We say the silliest things to her like, "Who's the prettiest girl in the world?", "Who's the best dog in the world", etc. Yesterday, when Eli was playing with her, I overheard him saying, "Who's the prettiest girl in the world?", "Who's the best dog in the world"... So neat to see how much she also means to Eli.
My parents were visitng this weekend and my mom was holding Ruby in her lap and I was sitting next to her. Ruby looked at me, got up and laid down on my lap. When I go down into the basement, she stands at the top of the landing (hasn't figure out going down a flight of stairs yet) and softly cries for me. Needless to say, she is a mama's girl. But she does enjoy snuggling with Nick!
I knew getting a puppy would be alot of work, and like it is for everyone, was much more than I anticipated. But we absolutely love this little pup and are so glad she is a part of our family!
