Long time no blog!
I want to try and get back into the habit of blogging.
I used to love blogging ..... both updating my own blog and reading and being inspired by my favourite bloggers.
I'm sat here with my Mabel on my lap. Mabel was 7 months old yesterday.
So, I thought I'd quickly blog and share some photos of Mabel. She came into my life at the end of May when she was 9 weeks old. She is a cross between a chihuahua and a miniature dachsund (a mix sometimes referred to as 'Chiweenies') You'll see she has inherited chihuahua ears!!

She is a constant joy and a perfect companion. She doesn't yap, very rarely barks (generally only when my Dad teases her!), loves people and loves all other dogs. Considering her size, she is fearless. She weighs just 2kg (less than 4 1/2 lbs!) and is much smaller than my neighbours cats. To try and give an idea of her tiny stature, I've included a photo of my 3 yr old nephew taking her out for a run.
I confess to never liking small dogs (my experience of them being noisy, yappy, snappy and over-protective of their owners .... especially chihuahuas!) I used to refer to them as rats :-/
Obviously, my views are now changed (well, in the case of Mabel anyway!)
So, here are a few photos (proud mum!!)

She's absolutely gorgeous!
You know I lost Tiggy very recently, which has left a MASSIVE hole in my life. Nevertheless, I will be looking for another dog in the new year. The joy they bring far outweight the sadness when they leave.
Whenever I cry over Tiggy, which has been a lot this week, I remember that we had 15 happy, healthy years together. She was loved and secure and totally content, and that's all any dog could ask for.
Obviously, Mabel feels the same!
Dear Sarah, I can't begin to imagine what you must be feeling. Mabel has so quickly made a positive impact that even after 5 months I cannot imagine how my life would be without her. In such a short time she has enriched my life. My family are sure she's helped me stay out of hospital this autumn.
I never met Tiggy but knew some of what she meant to you - all of your Tiggy posts and photos on twitter. You were very obviously devoted to each other.
Lovely to find your comment Sarah. Glad to hear you are back blogging. Hope you are having fun creating.
We are having a sunny weekend , off for a walk to enjoy it.
Have a great weekend.
I LOVE posts about doggies! Your little one is adorable.
Glad you are back. I haven't been posting much either. I think internet games are to blame in my case but I got the blahs in posting journal pages for a while. I need to get back to it too.
