It's Ginger

Ginger
I know, I know, I know. . .
You all liked Daphne. But the truth is that the girls were having a really hard time saying Daphne and it was bugging the shit out of me. The little ones kept saying Daph-a-knee.
When I thought of Ginger I really thought that it fit her and it was much easier to say!
DD#2 was the only hold out, (of course.)
Finally she gave in when I said that her name could be Gingersnap and we could call her her Ginger. She was sold.
So it's Ginger.

Shelly, Angie, and my brother are rebelling and calling her Daphne-Ginger.
Brats.

She is SO DAMN CUTE!
She's only had one or two accidents. She is trained on the piddle pads and she has slept through the night every night she's been here. We heart her!

I remember when I had Macy and Rudder as puppies, I thought that it was so much work having a puppy; I was exhausted looking after each of them when they were babies.. That has always been my frame of reference for having a puppy; it's a LOT of work.

Well, I guess I didn't realize that after you have one, two, and then three babies; you realize what a LOT of work is.
Having a puppy is a walk in the park compared to a having pre-schooler and tandem nursing a toddler and an infant all at the same time.

So I'm relieved.
Having Ginger isn't really a big deal; it's quite a joy and she is a lot of fun.

Right now she is sleeping because she is soooo tired!

I have a picture like that right after we got Bella (Grizabella the Glamour Dog) sleeping in a sandal, she was soooo tiny.

I'm glad you found someone to warm your heart

I think having a kid is much easier than a dog.
I heart my kid..I did not heart my dog.
This is why I do not own any pets and our goldfish just died.
No pets here.

Either I call that dog Lilith or we go with Cristin's idea and say she was born in Vegas to a lounge singer.

Yes, I know...I know...i'm a hooker as bitch!

She'll answer to "Ginger," but deep down inside she's going to know her name is Lilith. Or maybe Lilith was her mom! Although, I feel as though she's a showgirl, not a lounge singer. "Her name was Lil-ith... she was a show-girl.... with doggy ribbons in her hair and an urge to sniff down there..."

I did not win Powerball but apparently the winning ticket was sold in Wilsonville; the town next to mine.

You really shouldn't be allowed to post pictures that cute. It makes me want to run out and get a little puppy to go with my big, dorky, can't fit in a tote bag dog.

You need to know that I can't stop thinking about Ginger, and I keep coming back to see yet MORE of her sweet little face. I showed AdRi, and even SHE thinks Ginger is the most adorable thing ever!!!!

Be careful: we're tempted to come dognap her. Seriously: she's frickin' A-Dorable!!!!!! However, we have realized that we'd need to get a little boy gijnger because we have a name already picked out: Nick Arrogio. Long story.

Ginger is a great name for that cute little dog! My grandparents had a dog named Ginger when I was a kid and she was a good dog.

Thanks everyone for your nice comments about sweet Ginger.

Lelo, you can't dognap her but you and Adri can meet her if you like!

I had NO idea that I had a blog about dog care????

And yes, she can be from a lounge singer from Vegas.

Kristine: give up the Lilith. Her name is Ginger and I already have a toaster oven.
