A nice perk of getting a puppy that isn't 7-8 weeks old is that they can sleep through the night. Gerald was 12 1/2 weeks when we got him and slept till 6:30 his first night. Most mornings he's up around 6, never past 7. Kate and Abby have been told they can't come out of their room until 6:30. Kate is often out of her room at 6:30 on the dot so my early mornings have not been lonely. We have all enjoyed many cool mornings outsider together as we watch the sun come up over the mountains.
One of the first mornings Gerald was with us, Ellie was up early as well. It worked out great that there was a leaf bug in our yard so not everyone was fighting over who got to play with or hold the puppy. Go figure. They each happily took turns holding the bug and then playing with Gerald.
