Introducing Romeo.

Don't let this cute face fool you. He is naughty! A few weeks ago we got a new puppy, Romeo. He is a Maltese and one of the cutest things you will ever see. He is into everything. Roxy wasn't this bad when she was a puppy. So, as you can imagine, it's a full time job just keeping up with him. He is only 10 weeks old and is in the chewing, eating everything, peeing and pooping all the time, stage. I wouldn't trade him for anything though. I love the little booger. It's so funny to see him forming a little personality. He has a tendency to get super grumpy out of nowhere. It's quite comical. And, normally when that happens he will put his ears back, give a little growl, and then go lay down and go to sleep. It just happened a second ago. He is now passed out. He likes to sleep in between things. Instead of sleeping in his bed he sleeps behind his bed between it and the wall. Right now he only weighs 1.3 pounds. We think he will get between four or five which is perfect because Roxy is only 3 pounds. He was the runt of the litter. When we went to see him we were planning on getting a girl. It was him and his two sisters. He was half the size of them. Alberto couldn't resist picking him. He looks like a little snowball or polar bear. And, he's so fat. His belly is so big. He loves to eat. Sometimes he'll be in the kitchen laying at his bowl just eating away. I like to call him little fatfat. Roxy has taken to him better than I expected. They are so cute when they play together. Of course, since Romeo can't jump on the furniture yet, Roxy uses it as her opportunity to escape when she has had enough. She is such a good big sister and will check on him when he is sleeping or when he whines. It's very sweet. He is a great addition to our family.
