Baby's Best Friend?

There were a lot of things that I needed to get used to when I came home from the hospital.  I had no trouble getting used to my nursery, the swing or all of the cuddly blankets; but, it took me a while to figure out what that big, furry, four-legged creature was.  Now that I am eleven weeks old, I am used to having that wrinkly brown and black face looking at me!

 Delilah, our two year old Boxer, has become my barking body guard.  Anytime she hears an outside noise, she checks it out and then runs over to me to make sure that I am okay.  She lays her chin on whatever I am in, looks to see that I am okay, and walks away.  She likes to lay close to me and checks on me whenever I make noise. 

At this point, my parents do not let Delilah touch me.  But, in a few months, and throughout the next few years, I can imagine that we will get into a lot of mischief together!
