The siblings have been requesting a picture of Livie and the puppy together. Let me tell you, this is no easy feat. It is hard enough to get Liv to hold still for a picture. Trying to get a picture with both holding still is near impossible. But I have tried all day and here are the best I have come up with:
Liv loves the pup. They enjoy exploring the yard together. She loves to have the pup chase her, throw the ball for the puppy, and wrestle the puppy's chew toys out of its mouth. She also loves to pull poor London's tail which London doesn't actually seem to mind too much. London in turn loves to chase Liv around the yard and she loved licking Livie's feet when she is eating in her high chair (Liv thinks that is hilarious). I'm so excited for these two to be friends.It's fun. Definitely a lot of work trying to watch Liv and make sure the puppy doesn't pee on the carpet. Derek is definitely re-evaluating this added stress he reluctantly agreed to. London has actually done really well. She sleeps in her crate all night and doesn't ever go to the bathroom in there. And she is pretty good at letting us know when she needs to go out. She seems to pee in the house once a day, and it is usually my fault for not letting her out when she whimpers at the door. She is such a sweet puppy, and I love that as I type this out while Liv is sleeping in her crib, I have a cute little puppy curled up on my lap. But I will be thrilled when she is officially potty trained. That will sure make things easier.
