Warming up to the city

In her first week with us Hanna has certainly proven to be a love bug. She likes to sit in our son's lap and cuddle up with our daughter (us too!). She goes out to do her business and comes right back in - not a lot of stopping to play as she is still unsure of all the road noise out there. Every now and then, though, Tucker will run out back to bark at a squirrel and Hanna forgets her worries and follows him to see whats up. She is not very vocal but definitely interested in seeing what the fuss is about. I can see when she runs up and down the deck stairs that this girl is quite an athlete - when she jumps it looks effortless.
Our big Tucker is possibly a bit rowdy for her yet which may be part of what's keeping her in her shell a little bit. The two of them do love each other though - Tucker thinks she makes a great pillow and she doesn't mind it one bit. In the morning she gives him little love nibbles in his scruff which he mistakes for wanting to play. In reality, this little girl could sleep for a few more hours, and she usually does, once we've stopped making noise around her.
