Well it wasn't long before there was a peck on my car door. I rolled down the window to see Luke outside saying "Boy, do we have a surprise for you!" Let me tell you, my mind went wild. What could they have found? An old stoneware bowl? Maybe an antique oil lamp? Or dream of all dreams, a vintage quilt top that someone else had overlooked?
Closing my eyes in keen anticipation, I opened them to find:
Oh my was I EVER surprised. Now I love the farm and enjoy the animals immensely. I talk to them all and make over all the kittens and even the chicken gets lovin'. But I have never had an indoor pet. We had talked about it recently and I agreed that our Luke really needed to have a dog right now, but I wasn't expecting to take one home that afternoon. So I was REALLY surprised.
Well, this little 1 1/2 pound puppy has stolen my heart. He is the sweetest little thing. He is an apple head Chihuahua and will get to be about 4 pounds. After pouring over names like piranha, Little John, jaws, Zorro (I can't wait for a girl so I can name it Buttercup, Emma or Princess) and many, many others, we decided on Napoleon ~ the little general.
And so the adventure begins ...
Have a blessed Sunday!

he's gorgeous. I'm so glad you all decided to get a puppy. they are great friends. I know each and every one of you all will enjoy immensely (sp).
What a wonderful addition to your family! He's so cute!
He is adorable Lea and so are you and your wonderful family. I'm a country girl from Arkansas myself and reading some of these primitive crafts blogs and their links, like yours, really make me homesick. Give Colton a hug for me.
That is the sweetest puppy face I have ever seen! What fun you will have with that little one in the days to come. Our Mason needs a dog of his own, but we just haven't found the right one yet. Have a fun and blessed week with all of your sweet boys (including the new one!)

lea,
See you never know what the new day will bring, and from a flea market at that.Well the puppy is a cutie,and I bet getting all the attention any puppy could wish for. Now you need to get a bike with a basket so he can ride in it, just don't take your broom or pointy hat while doing this. People can get nervous. If Richard sees me with a broom he always says"going somewhere?" I'm getting this picture from the wizard of oz. I better go lay down now.

I have two full Chihuahua's (deer type) and two half Chihuahua/Rat Terrier cross, which I love. My little female Chihuahua is due to have puppies at the end of September. I just know you will love the Chihuahua like your own child. I know I lost the little Momma to my two full Chihuahua's during birthing and I thought I would just die. She was so very tiny and shouldn't have gotten pregnant!
The cross is a perfect fit and made just for kids, tough and durable! Full of energy and fun. I can't wait to hear more on your new love..If you were here I would give you a puppy if you wanted one when they were ready!
Blessings..dear Leah,

Aww, he is PRECIOUS!!! I hope you post lots of pictures of him!
My daughter teases that my little Min Pin, Leyna, has a "Napolean Complex". She's small, but thinks she's the size of a Great Dane. ;-Þ
Congratulations on your new little cutie, Lea! :-)
He is just adorable and will bring you many fun memories!!!!
What a Sweetheart- Napoleon is absolutely precious!
Congratulations on the new addition!

*Rondell*
what a darling!!
Thanks for visiting my blog today and most of all the encouragcomments. I really appreciated that! I think I must have needed it more than I thought *U*
Lord bless you today!
Welcome, Napoleon! He's so cute! Even full-grown, he'll find wonderful hiding places. Sweet he is.
Awwww!!! Hehe...too cute! I am so surprised though...i would have expected Luke to want more of a bigger dog! Napoleon is such a cute name! I can't wait to hear of different adventures he and Luke go on together!!! :)
Oh congrats on the cute little puppy and good luck with the adventure Lea!!!
He`s so cute Lea!!congratulations on the new addition to your family!!
Welcome to the family,Napoleon! I love his name and I love his look. Chis are so precious. I wanted one before we had all our females spayed. Some of our girls are so small that I could never find a female small enough to breed them. Like your commentor with the crosses, I would have hated myself if I lost a female like that. It was sad enough when they had their c-sections! Mike and I both get real emotional when are dogs are in stress. You will love Napoleon more with each passing day. You ought to contact the gal offering a pup. Two of those would be so much fun to watch! I can't wait to see Napoleon herding his chickens! LOL
Blessings! Linda
