so, i started making jewelry while in college, and in 2009 i created my own little etsy shop.

since then life’s gotten pretty busy … and i had to take a little break from the shop –

so the day f i n a l l y came when my sweet hubby agreed to let us get a PUPPY!

i am the definition of a “dog person” .. and i’ve been “patiently” waiting for us to extend our family with a little furry addition since we said “i do.”

welllll say hello to evelyn!  ( e v v y for short )

she was technically my christmas present, but we picked miss evvy up from the breeder on february 4th … and have loved every day (and sleepless night) with her ever since!

she is now 12 weeks old (boy, do they grow up quickly!) and she has already learned to stand at the door to tell us she needs to potty … annnd, she can sit, lie-down, and roll over on command! (ahem, puppy genius.)

her mom is a miniature poodle, and her dad is a yorkshire terrier, making her none other than a Yorkie-Poo. : )

she has the sweetest little personality, and we love her so much! just take a little gander at this cuteness …

the day we picked her up (8 weeks old)

9 weeks old (above)

she loves to sleep on our shoes.

nah, but for real though ..

11 weeks, keepin’ warm in styyyle.

sooo, madeline was an incredibly brave guinea pig for me a few weeks ago, as she became my first senior portrait subject. : )

we shot all around downtown Greenville, SC.  …

madeline is such a sweet, humble, beautiful and intelligent gal … and i’m hoping these photos caught some of that. : )

enjoy!

(by the way, congrats on becoming a gamecock, madeline!)
