Remington

Meet Remington the Bernese Mountain Dog, the newest addition to our family!  After waiting 8 long weeks, Brandon and I finally got to meet and bring home this sweet girl last Saturday.  We have now spent a little over a week with her, and we are completely in love.  I've been meaning to post some pictures of her and with the surprise snow day today, I am finally able to! So far, Remington (Remi) spends the majority of the day sleeping and thinks she is a lap dog.  She's going to be in for a reality check once she gets bigger.  She's gained 4 pounds in one week and now weighs a whopping 21 lbs at 9 weeks old.  She was the biggest in her litter and her breeder said that she will be at least 100 pounds when she is full grown ... I mean, just look at those paws!

Last weekend, we set up the tripod to take our first official family photo ... Remi wasn't thrilled, but we got one!

I am completely obsessed with her spotted nose ... it will eventually turn all black so I had to pull out the macro lens before that happened! (I know, somehow overnight I turned into a crazy dog lady)

Remington loves the snow ... running in the snow, burying her head in the snow, chewing on all the sticks she can find...

And while I baked cookies today, she did what she does best.  The entire time she didn't move.  Playing in the snow wiped her out!

And last but not least, since my dear friends requested a video, here you go, Ben & Liz!
