Nonnie

Silly Nonnie and hardcore Shi

Last weekend, my mom was able to make it up from TX for a visit, and a wonderful one at that! [The entire day before Shiloh began prepping herself for her visit by saying "Non-nie, Non-nie, mor-row!"] Shiloh and I loved spending time with her, and it was heartwarming to sit back and watch the two of them get to know each other. Nonnie was able to watch Shi tromp around in her rain boots, dance, and ride on the horsey she sent her for Christmas. At dinner, Nonnie fed Shi bites of "roni" [macaroni], a big favorite.... then playing and squirting water at bathtime... and then Nonnie read Shi a book for the first time, and rocked her to sleep. It really was precious!

How pretty!
The three of us, enjoying each other's company :)
[And the hat Nonnie brought her, which was a HUGE hit]

Ohhhhhh yeahhhhhh
Stylin' and profilin'.

Being silly with Nonnie
Playing with Nonnie's hair, or ear... Shi is fascinated with both!

Nonnie also brought her new baby, Isabella Grayson, a Malti-Peke who was about 8 weeks old [and around 1.5 pounds... so tiny!!]. She's adorable!! Shiloh loves animals, especially dogs, and was quite taken with Izzy! She has talked about "Zizzy.... zizzy..." ever since!!

Sweet little thing
Cute little thing, isn't she??

Izzy and her Mommy :)
The glowing new "Mommy".

Checkin' things out...
Mom's friend Karen took this pic, so I can't take credit... but how fantastic is that?!?
[The other dog is Karen's lab, Kylie]

Nonnie, Shi, and Izzy :)
Nonnie helps Shi hold "Zizzy".

Izzy is very interested in storytime
Zizzy helps Shi read a book...

Shiloh shows Izzy how to read a book
... "First, Zizzy, you climb inside the book like this.... see? You can see the pictures better this way."
