Ella Bella (commonly referred to as EB)

I know I've already done a post today (and lots of posts about Ella already click here for my favorite one) but I just noticed there's a Link Party at Kelly's Korner and I wanted to share my own little girl! I'm sure I'm a little biased, but Ella's definitely the cutest dog I've ever seen. Especially better looking that Boo. Ugh, that dog is funk-ay!

Moving on, most of you probably already know that I am the momma to Ella. EB, as her BFFs like to call her. Here are some of my favorite videos and pictures of her :)

(DISCLAIMER: Just realized this post will probably be full of sappy commentary that is unnecessary and extreme. If you do not wish to experience said sappiness, please leave now. It only gets worse from here. Consider yourself warned.)

Ella on her way home -- February 18, 2011

Ella is a shorkiepoo. I cannot believe I just admitted that -- how embarrassing! I hate saying it out loud but there you have it. She's a designer dog. Basically, her mom was a mix between a shih-tzu and a yorkie. Here papa was a black toy poodle. Who knew this was the perfect combination?

First family photo! February 18, 2011

She was born December 25, 2010 (Christmas Day!) and we picked her up on February 18, 2011. She was 8 weeks old and weighed 2 pounds... It's hard to believe she was ever that little -- she's up to 10 lbs. now. (please excuse my high-pitched voice in next video -- it's embarrassing but authentic)

If you haven't figured out by now, John and I are borderline obsessed with her. Sometimes we even take her to Lowes with us. {{Hides face}} Some of her quirks include her amazing tongue (Yes, there's an entire post dedicated to it already) and escape skillz. See below:

Like I said, skillz. She can also climb over fences and half-doors. NICE! (not)

Ahh, but we love her anyway. And I'm pretty sure she loves us too :) Almost as much as sticks.
