I Finally Have A Girl!

Heidi is the newest addition to our family. She is a three-year-old maltese/poodle mix (aka maltepoo), and we adopted her from a sweet woman who is going through a divorce and is having to move to a small apartment with her nine-year-old son.

We are over-the-moon happy to have Heidi, as she is the sweetest, funniest little thing ever! We've never had a small dog, so this is all new for us.

She has quite quickly assimilated into this crazy, chaotic family. She had to be nearly shaved a few months ago, so she's not looking her maltepoo best. We can't wait to see what she'll look like with her long hair!

Who could resist this face?

Heidi likes to swing with us.

Heidi loves to chase birds. I don't have the heart to tell her that those little legs cannot make her fly.

Heidi meets Rapto, Joel's dinosaur robot.

Heidi finds the remnants of a dead bird further deepening her obsession with our feathered friends.

Silly girl!

She's quite the cuddler, and also has a few adorable tricks up her sleeve. We are in love!
