Our new little furry friend.

Just thought i would post a pic or two of our new furry friend, Her name is PIP. We are having my brothers dog on a weeks trial to see if a dog is for us !!!! All seems fine at the moment and the kids adore her. (they think we are just looking after her for a week whilst my brother starts his new job but if we like her we can have her) We are going to have to have a family vote at the end of the week !!! HMMMMM !!!

I think it will be great for us & we already know her and know shes great with kids but my Hubby isnt too sure (he likes bigger dogs but i can't handle that what with having the kids too) What do you think of her shes not as cute as a puppy maybe but shes toilet trained , will come back to us when we call so all the hard work is done..... is she cute or is it just meeeeee ? :D

Update how we get on at end of the week.

I asked her where she got it and she said John Lewis . i went online and just ordered one and surprised it was free delivery too !!!! I love Momiji dolls and this is very simular. the doll on the right is a real momiji doll & the last one i bought a few weeks ago , i only buy the green or yellowy ones so they look good in my craft room thats icecreamy pastel yellow and minty green . It was painted when it was a nursery before Keira was born we werent sure baby was going to be a boy or girl so i suggested yellow and green its so bright and sunny we left the room that colour as it grows on you.
