Mollypop

Meet Molly! Molly is the newest four-legged addition to our family, and we love her to death already. She's the size of a large potato and just as uncoordinated as one. Her favorite hobbies are nibbling on mom and dad's faces, going "swimming" in her water bowl, and beating up her big brother Milo. The last is definitely the most entertaining to watch. Molly is a miniature Australian shepherd and she should be about the same size as Milo when she grows up. She also has the same energy level as Milo. For them, that's wonderful! They'll always have a furry friend to keep each other company and won't bother mom and dad too much to play (which we've already noticed this past week). For us, this means that we now have TWO little holy terrors running around the house. Hurricanes Milo and Molly do nothing but play tug of war, wrestle, and sprint laps around our kitchen and family room endlessly. I'm talking for hours on end. I don't mind one bit because they keep each other preoccupied and don't bother me much. The neighbors downstairs have taken to banging on their ceiling (our floor) to signal to us that they're becoming annoyed with the sound of puppy paws moving around. However, they've never said a thing to us about it bothering them. We get a little tired of the banging so we might have started throwing toys for them to chase a little more often than we used to... who knows?
My poor little Molly is sick with a tummy bug right now and has been throwing up all of her food today. I took her to the vet to have her tested for the Parvo virus and thankfully, it was negative. So, miss Molly is now on the steamed rice diet. She's not a fan of it and keeps turning her little nose up at the rice and chicken broth mixture in her little cupcake bowl on the kitchen floor, but she'll learn. She's gotta eat some time. Please pray that my little fatty gets well soon! Until then, we'll be cuddled up on the couch watching Friends. We're exciting, I know.
