We have a joke in our house that Addison will refer to all dogs as brother, not doggie. I hoped & prayed that Hampton & Addison would bond, mostly that Hampton would be sweet to Addison. From day 1 they have shown an interest in each other but as they both are growing you can truly see that bond form. It's incredibly special. If you want to see Addison's face light up & hear her sweet little squeal, a sure fire way is to bring Hampton within her eye sight. She just talks & talks & talks to him...it's so sweet. She absolutely ADORES him & he LOVES her. He sniffs around for her when he can't find her & he is sure to be at your feet if Addison is in your arms. He is so patient when she touches him. I actually thinks he loves how gently she rubs her tiny hand on his fur because he tilts his chin up in a "ohhh right here fashion". Addison reaches with her fingers sprawled out, eyes lit with anticipation as she touches his furry body and then she crinkles her nose. I love it when she crinkles her nose! We are obviously super cautious; we never leave her unattended with Hampton & one of us is always right there. I am curious see how he is once she is even more mobile, especially because as Hampton ages the more docile he becomes.

Her expressions are so cute! She has quite the little personality now, huh? :)
