And having wanted one all your life only makes it that much more special---have a happy Bailey homecoming!

I wanted to name our DD Blair, but my DW wouldn't hear of it. She made me to back and reconsider...I finally decided to call her Wednesday. My wife hated that too. Her name isn't Wednesday, but that's what I call her anyway. She loves it, but I am the only one allowed to call her that.

You should check out the Dog's Rules for Christmas thread, and make sure that Bailey knows all the rules before you get started. It could be a little tricky otherwise.
