Our litte furball is ONE today!

I can't believe it, but it is true...Molly is one year old today. It seems like only yesterday that Josh picked her up from the breeders (when she was about 6.5 weeks old) and brought her to see me at my work (I couldn't wait until after work to see her). She was this little ball of fur, only 9.5 pounds and easily fit snuggly into our arms. And oh those first couple of nights with her, she was literally up every 2 hours (we had her on a bed in the kitchen with a baby gate up so she couldn't get loose) and oh those cries and whines. And as soon as she saw one of us come into the kitchen she would try to climb as high up our legs until we would pick her up and hold her, then all was right with the world. She was for sure our baby and we were for sure her mommy and daddy! xoxo
Well today she is definately full grown, she is 85 pounds and there is no way I would be able to pick her up now, even Josh can barely hold her for long, just long enough to weigh her.

I made her a cute hat for her birthday and we got her a couple of presents, a nice bone and this huge rope, which she loves. And the whole point of a rope this big and tough is so that she doesn't destroy it in a matter of minutes. We gave her a new stuffed toy just last week...it is now completely torn apart and there is no stuffing left in it :)
She has been such a wonderful dog and we enjoy her so much. She has such an attitude sometimes, and then other times she just wants to cuddle and give kisses. And boy oh boy is she smart, she has picked up so many tricks and she definately has a way of getting what she wants! We are looking forward to many more birthday celebrations with her! xoxo Love you Molly <3

Thanks! It's okay, I wish sometimes that she was still small too!
