The Newest Member of the Stein Family...

Meet Tupelo!!!



Tupelo is our new sweet, 7 week old, Boykin Spaniel puppy.  We picked her up yesterday and she has been settling in.  We actually got some sleep last night!  She is so sweet...she loves to follow us around and makes sure that she is right next to us.  She has also been exploring her new home and figuring everything out.  We've kept her pretty busy so she's been very good at taking naps.  Last night she cried for about 20 minutes when we put her in her bed at bedtime but then she slept until 5:30am!  My sweet husband took her out then and she did a great job of going to the bathroom outside instead of in her bed.  Today we have not been quite as successful with the no-pottying-in-the-house thing but luckily she is little.  We're working on it.  We love her!!!










(Please excuse Richard's lack of shirt and the folded laundry behind him)

She doesn't sit still too long for me to get a picture but we're working on learning to "sit" too so maybe soon I'll have a cute sitting down picture.  I'm sure she'll be growing fast so stay tuned for more pictures!
