Birthday Girl!

August 7th was Nattie's 3rd birthday. I know this is SO cheesy but I remember the day we went and picked her up from the breeder. She was 10 weeks old and such a momma's girl. She stood right up against the fence where her momma was and didn't want to play and didn't want anything to do with us. Of course, we picked her and I almost cried the entire way home because I had taken her away from her mom. She just cried and laid in Seth's lap the entire way back to my house.
Fast forward 2yrs and 42 weeks. She is still a momma's girl and a daddy's girl (wow Kate, you have severe problems :)) Anyway, she still loves to crawl in your lap like she is a 5 pound poodle, if you will lay with her, she will wallow you to death, and don't even think of rolling down your car window to talk to her unless you want it scratched because she will jump up to say hi. She may be a German Shepherd but she is so gentle and so obedient. My neighbor actually told me the other day that she is amazed how loyal Nat is. She stays in the yard when we let her out, she comes when we call her and when we say "House" she goes and stays regardless of whether the door is open or closed. Anyway, I can't believe she is 3 already. For her birthday, we took her out for one of her favorites...ice cream cones! Shhh...she loved it!

Happy Birthday Nat!

Umm...Mom, I think you dropped some.

Dad, can I have some of yours? It seems to be melting faster than you can eat it. I can help:)

PS~If I am like this over my dog, watch out when I have kids. Whoa!
