Our Little Growing Family


Well it's time. Time to grow by one, time to shake things up, time to tip the scales a little.

They say there's never REALLY a good time, and no one is EVER really TRULY ready, so why not go for it.

That's right. We're getting a baby!

Another corgi, that is. Here's the thing. The only really good time to do it is when John is off in June so that we can be on St. Simons for the new arrival for intensive potty training and beach indoctrination. As fate would have it, I found a breeder near Mom and Dad in TN that had a litter on the way that if all went well, the timing would be perfection.

All went well, and the mom (Faith) delivered her puppies on April 20, my brother Warren's birthday. After 6 puppies, came one more, a little tri (mostly black with some white and tan) boy. Our boy :)

The working name is Brodey (spelling TBD)...from the Welsh word for "brother", Browd.

Tilley is beside herself with excitement and can't wait for (her words) "my puppy". Laika is indifferent but tolerant as usual and is optimistic that this may translate into longer naptimes.

Congrats on Brodey! There must be something in the water - as our family will be growing by one, puppy that is, as well!
