Dogsitting...

This little fur ball is Sophie our friends dog...

This week we are watching her while her mom is in Mexico...

We have never had a small dog and are learning it is quite funny...she LOVES to: cuddle with you, always sit on your lap (hence the lap dog), sleep, cuddle, walk and stick her head out the window while you drive...

This is Sophie in heaven! And us too..it was in the 50s today and you would have thought it was 100! We had the windows down to smell and feel the spring air!

Oh and she will only sleep at night if she is under the covers with you..hehe!
