Dear Ethel,




We are SO excited that you are the newest addition to our family! We cannot wait to bring you home and get to know you so well! We cannot wait to snuggle, play, walk, and feed you! Your big sister is so excited to meet you too! We talk about you alot to her and she looks around when I ask her, "Where is your baby sister Ethel?!?!?"




We are so lucky that our friends told us about the little place where you are coming from. We are so lucky that they have a Yorkie that is so darn cute! Because if we hadn't met Athena Jean...then we would have NEVER met YOU!




The first day we met you, you were only 7 days old and weighed 11oz. Look how little you were!:








(Ethel, 7 days, 11oz)


You fit nicely into just one of my hands! And boy, did you like to cuddle...you kept nuzzling your noise into my hand!



The first day we met you, we couldn't see your beautiful eyes, but we were looking forward to that day!







Then our second visit with you was when you were 14 days old and you weighed 22 oz. Getting bigger fast!!





(Ethel, 14 days, 22oz)


Now, you take up both of my hands!



Your eyes were still closed on this visit, but we talked to you ALOT!





Our sweet friends M and B came with us to visit you...they are SO excited for your arrival too! M is the mommy of Athena Jean...and we just know that you two will be BEST FRIENDS! B, wants a puppy really bad, so we are hoping she gets a dog so that yall can all play together!





I didn't want to put you down on our second visit! Your coat is SUPER soft and you are just so tiny still!




So, Ethel things got really busy for us, we moved, and I was in a wedding so we had to go 2 weeks without seeing you. It was hard for us because we knew you had grown so much! It was so exciting to see you at 4 weeks old! You are now 1lb and 13oz! BIG girl!! Your eyes were open, so you got to see us for the first time not just smell us!







(Ethel, 4 weeks, 1lb 13oz)


Look at those paws!!



You sure do like to snuggle!!! We can't wait to get you home to snuggle with us! Your big sister LOVES to snuggle!





We love your coloring! You are just PERFECT! (Just like your big sister Lucy!)





Miss Ethel, we CANNOT wait to bring you home Easter weekend!! Everyone is so excited about meeting you! You have lots of family and friends to meet!




We are so blessed to be adding to our family! Miss Lucy is excited about you coming! (Even though she may bark at you a few times when you first come home!)




We love you baby Ethel!


Daddy, Mommy and big sister Lucy!
