Papa's Puppy Nickie:

All Alanna has cared about since Nana and Papa got here is this silly puppy.  She loves her and drags her everywhere she goes.  She made her watch cartoons with her this morning and it was too cute.  As soon as she wakes up from her nap, she RUNS to the living room to find "Puppy Nickie."  

When it was time to run an errand, Alanna snuck away and put Nickie on her bed!  When we asked where she was, she said "I put her on my bed so no one can get her!"  She has also put her on the table to try to get her to eat with her, and she put her on the TV stand so that she could watch TV.  OH MY!

She often carries her like a baby and pats her bottom and tells her "shhhhhh" because she is her baby.  I told her to say hi to Asha and be sweet to her because she missed her buddy.  Alanna turned to Asha and pointed her finger and said "go lay in your bed mutt!"  I guess she's chopped liver now.

More pics to come tomorrow...
