These are from a few days ago, before the most recent snowfall. Collin and Willow had a blast, until Collin got snow in his boot, which threw a damper on far more than just his toes. He cried his way the rest of the way home. He was back out later that day, though, romping about happily. The puppy is Sophia Strawberry. She's five months old, and is almost entirely adorable. She's a much more active soul than Zoe was, and I think it's only partly her age. She's got a Cavalier temperament, which means she's snuggly and cuddly and loves everyone, but where Zoe was all gentleness, Sophie is a livewire. It's impossible not to like her, and while we still miss Zoe, Sophie has helped a lot simply by bounding about and being herself. It's wonderful to watch the kids with her - we have to go roust her out of Collin's bed when it's crate time most nights these days. (I might cave in and let her stay, if I weren't fairly certain that she'd wake up and chew apart his room. No nights out of the crate until she's done teething, at the least!)
