This is Nessie's namesake...and for all you doubters out there, yes the Loch Ness monster is real.
As promised yesterday, I broke out the external harddrive to find some pictures of Nessie when she was just a puppy - and boy was she cute!
She was a small terror for a while and as expected used those vicious little puppy teeth to get herself into some trouble. But it was all worth it and she's a wonderful,
energetic dog.
The picture of Nessie with Sean is actually on the day we picked her up, he was on duty. Nessie and I ventured to Ft. Meade so she could meet her dad! Not sure whether she's excited about moving to California or not, but she's gotta go either way. She will be spending a month with her grandparents and their FIVE dogs!
Nessie has a younger sister, Grayson - a small gray cat that we adopted. When we first got Grayson, Nessie was almost a year old and was pretty sure that Grayson would want to play together all the time....not so much. They get along pretty well though, and I think that Grayson misses Nessie when she's away at day camp. (I'll find some pictures of her later. You know how it is, you never take as many pictures of the second child!)
Sometimes when it's really hot out, my parents will take me down to the Middle Patuxent River for a nice refreshing swim! Today I was lucky enough to get to go for a quick dip in the water, which was a great relief from the house - which is 95 degrees right now! I'm probably the best swimmer that I know of and I absolutely love the water. Here are some pictures of me splashing about!!!
