Hazel has been home for a week and a half and she still doesn't have a thread! Time to fix that.

Meet Hazel! Full name Truepenny Bright Side of Life, because Monty Python is awesome. She is Watson's daughter from his first litter, and is one of 9 puppies (go Watson!). So far she is awesome. Totally spunky and fearless. She is tackling things that took Watson at least a month, like the scary basement stairs (which is terrifying because she looks like she's going to slide down them head first; she's only allowed if she has a spotter). She's super sassy and prances around with her tail waving over her back like a flag. Overall she reminds me a lot of Watson as a puppy but even more confident and obnoxious. Haha

Watson is still adjusting. He looks anxious when he wants to rest but she's running amok, because he never knows when she might tackle him and bite his ears. But he loves to play with her, and when she finally falls asleep he'll sneak over and lie down near her. He also looks to me about everything, like if he tells her off for something he'll look at me like "Is that ok mom? Did I do that right?" He's such a doormat and even his telling off is super gentle. He's very good with her.

Right after birth:


About two weeks old and just starting to walk:


Puppy stack (look at that tail!)


First day home and very tired!


Puppies love awkward sleeping positions



Watson thinks she's probably alright, but he wishes that she would chew on her bully stick somwhere else

Some fun on the patio last weekend. She spent some time tackling the landscaping (this was after I finally got her to stop pulling flowers off of the hydrangeas and scattering them around)


Then she struck a pose:



And then she finally took a nap (only took half a glass of wine)

They are both SO beautiful, and the family resemblance is pretty striking! The wine pictures are hilarious.

Thanks everyone! I can't wait to see how much she looks like him as she grows. To most people all Welshies probably look the same, since they're the same color and they don't vary a ton, but I'll be able to tell if she looks more like Watson's side of the family or Sadie's.

In the wine pics, the one with the full glass was actually taken after the one where she's asleep. I decided to sneak away for a refill while she was sleeping, and when I came back she was all sassy and looking at me like "How dare you leave while I'm sleeping?!"
