Hello My Friends!!!
I apologize for not doing this earlier today but Aspen was here and quite fussy
today. I had very little sleep from the events of last night. I am about to
turn
in expecting another long night....happy night but long. But before I do I
wanted to share with you how things went with Madison. We left for San Diego
airport at 8:15 am...the weather was warm and clear and beautiful as you can
see
from the pics of the airport I sent yesterday. We met Christina right
away...here plane was actually early and so were we...yeah!!! We knew her right
away because she was carrying little Madison in her arms...I would know that
face anywhere LOL!!! She knew us from our beaming faces and our sign! LOL. We
had our greetings, signed the papers, chatted a bit and she was off to visit
with her friend and we were anxious to get Miss Madison home as soon as we
could. We took a few pics together then headed to the car where she had water
and a bit of ground chicken I brought with us. She gobbled it up! and drank a
bit too. For the ride I had her securely in her carrier even though I was
dying
to hold her the whole time. She slept till the mid way spot where we stopped
for a potty break, some more food and water. When we finally got home...we hit
lots of traffic...it was almost dark but she had a few minutes on the deck to
run and stretch her little legs in the sun. More food and water. Then she met
Myrtle. They really hit it off...Myrtle LOVES her!!! we played and just
snuggled
for a bit...another drink...a few more bits and bed time by 11:30 pm. Maddison
slept right with me...waking me every couple of hours for me to take her to the
pad to pee...what a good girl!!! WE were up by 6:00am awaiting Miss Aspen's
arrival. Great timing as Madison took her morning nap right after her breakfast
which gave me time to get Aspen settled. After her nap, Madison met the rest of
the gang and they were so happy to welcome her...she got lots of licks and
ended
up taking a little nap on the floor as the sun poured into the afternoon window
with Shuai-Li and Myrtle surrounding her. All went so well!!! She ate and drank
well throughout the day...poops and pees great! Mark and I took her to her Vet
appointment this afternoon while Andrea came over and took over Aspen's care
for
about an hour. The Vet said Madison was the picture of health and he did a
fecal
sample and some bloodwork...as well...all is great and normal. She slept in the
car ride home and then played hard for a good couple of hours with the gang.
After Aspen left for the evening, Madison and I took a little rest
together...we
both crashed for about an hour or so while my wonderful hubby made us a late
dinner. NOw Mark has left for work and Jimmy, Molly and I are just enjoying the
evening and I will soon be crashing again. I really am tired!!!! I am SUPER
excited about committing to lose weight with some of you...I am gonna NEED more
energy in the months to come and I know losing weight and eating better will
accomplish that!!! Miss Madison will be sleeping with us again tonight...and I
think it will just work out fine! Everyone found their spots and she was right
next to Myrtle and I and it was just like she has always been there...a perfect
fit!!! She is very playful...and what a little ham!!! I will try to get some
pics tomorrow if Aspen isnt as cranky as she was today!!!!
i love you guys so much!!! I really think our little family is now
complete!!! Thank you all again so very much!!!!!!!
