My sweet baby girl Rylie is 3 today!! Last week it was hard to believe that Bayla is now 4, but this is really hard to believe since I have had Rylie since she was born! Long story, very very short...I dated a guy who bought me my first Jack Russell, Abbie, who will be 5 New Year's Day. Then there's Bayla. Well, when he and I broke up, I got Bayla in the "divorce" and he got Abbie. I was out of town for a while and he agreed to watch Bayla for me. Abbie was in heat, he didn't keep them apart, and on Christmas Eve 2005, 5 puppies were born! 3 girls and 2 boys that were absolutely adorable. That is until they all started to get older. By the time they were 6 weeks old, I was so ready for them to go! Rylie ended up being the last puppy and I couldn't bear to sell her, so I decided to keep her. She's got a lot of her mom's aggressive spunk, but she has a very sweet, snuggly side like her dad. Her name was "Little Girl" for the first 3 months of her life because I couldn't come up with a good name. She is very nosy and loves to be outside. If she could, she would play fetch with a ball all day every day!!! She has a very good nose! At the apartments I lived in when I first moved to SA, I lived right next to the tennis court. She found so many tennis balls in the bushes that I won't have to buy any for years! She could sniff 'em out every time! I thought about renting her out to people playing tennis! She really doesn't like men (or most people for that matter) when she first meets them, but she loves Josh and her Grandpa.
Here are some pics of her over the last 3 years!
Pile of puppies!!
Rylie is the one not looking at the camera
With her sisters...and now she has her eyes closed!
Another pile of puppies!
Sweet girl sleeping
With her brother (The Escape Artist). They were the last two.
Helping her Grandma cook
Hanging out in the sun
Just being cute!
Loving the snow
Sleeping in the sun
Lazy eating
Her favorite spot...a pile of towels fresh out of the dryer
The only time she lays on her back is if she is really really tired.
Christmas 2007, hike in the woods at Grandpa's
Scoping out the tank
She has recently taken a liking to laying on the back of the sofa
So tired!
"Quit taking pictures and throw the ball already!"
So pathetic!
