Hi Everyone  bear_grin
I just wanted to share the exciting goings on in my life over the last few weeks. 
First of all, I adopted a puppy!!!  Another addition to the Medina clan, little Pippin.  I adopted him at 8 days old and he has been a total joy since I bought him home, I love him so much and want to take photos of every little cute pose or thing he does.  He is so cute!!!  My little boy  bear_innocent He is a Papillon, which means butterfly in French, I thought that was so special when I found out, the connection the name had to my fairy bears was so perfect!  I named him after a character in my favourite book, The Lord of the Rings...he is my little hobbit ;)

I also had a visit from two of my dear friends from Melbourne Hayley Justice (Just Us Bears) and Karen Alderson.  Hayley stayed with me for 4 days and we had so much fun together.  Karen took part in the Adelaide show which was another fun day for me.  Unfortunately I didn't think of taking more photos of all the tables!!

So, I have a huge smile on my face still and this has definitely been the best few weeks that I've had in a long time!!  bear_grin  bear_grin  bear_grin

Hi Sarah,

Your little puppy Pippin is the most sweetest wee darling
bear_wub  bear_wub and it is no wonder that you have been having a lot of fun with him.
I love his little blue jersey.
Spike is adorable too and would love to have a playmate.
That is great that you had a visit from Hayley and Karen and you were able to have a good time together.

Take care and warmest bear hugs
Carolyn

I love papillons.  But I have 3 dogs and really I don't think something that delicate would cope with my clodhopper dogs.
He is really lovely. Full of mischief but lovely.

Thanks so much!!  bear_grin  He is adorable isn't he bear_tongue   though cheeky and a little monster at times!  Very sharp teeth  bear_whistle

Sue Ann and Heather, I didn't bring him home at 8 days, there is a waiting list of 10 people after me for this breed, so I went in at 8 days, choose him and paid a deposit and let him grow up with his mum and siblings.  I think I picked pretty well considering he hadn't opened his eyes yet haha.  I went for the markings as colours can change, I wanted symmetry to his mask so I didn't have to pull out my copic markers and fill him in each day lol.  I already scissor sculpt my other dog lol

Eliza, he has grown so much already!!  I want him little!!  And he is already loosing some of those cute puppy noises they make :(

Sophie, I was actually trying to find a French name, when I looked up Pippin on a baby site it said it was French bear_original  Mum wanted to call him Gaston ;)

Mary, Laurie, yes, Spike is basically ignoring him lol, what puppy??  Lol.  He is a character and definitely thinks he is 100% human...we joke that he is not a dog person and that's why he is ignoring Pippin haha.

Off to feed him now!
