Awkward Age

Trust me when I tell you that Evelyn was just as goofy looking as a baby.


Well, almost.



Sometimes I think they sell Sammies at eight weeks to keep them from morphing into this sort of weirdness and ending up on the shelf for a couple of months.

Aren't these paws adorable, though? All our girls started out with spotted paws and bellies but they usually go solid, eventually (belly pink, paws grey).


But she has a pretty coat, I think.


And a darling little mouth.


Look at this spotted belly!



Trust me, this is a stage.



The cuteness will continue.



I think she has sort of a big nose but husband says it is perfect.


There never was a sweeter puppy.


Just like Evelyn - a long leggity beastie. Or a kangaroo.
