New addition to our family

This precious little English Springer Spaniel joined our family today! She will be 10 weeks old on Saturday - born September 13th. She is so lovable and softer than I could have ever imagined. Larry has been looking for a puppy for several weeks and we took a 2 hour drive out to Globe, AZ and picked up this little girl. She is still looking for a name so if you want to give a suggestion just leave a comment at the bottom of this post. The breeder said she is a lemon and white - not the more typical liver and white or black and white. Some names we are contemplating are Peaches and Cream and call her Peaches, and.... okay, none of the rest are even in the running as far as I am concerned but Larry disagrees - Sugar & Spice, Snow Globe, White Rose, Rose White, Lemon Drop, Lemon Meringue, Sugar Baby, Sugar Bear, White Satin, Sugar Pie Honey Bunch...See what I mean? We really would appreciate any suggestions you might come up with and be willing to share!



So any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Oh, by the way, Lady went with us to pick out the pup and she is very non-committal about the relationship! She is warming up a little bit. Snickers, on the other hand, is staying her distance. The pup didn't seem to mind Snickers because she was raised with a cat.
More pictures to come.....

Matthew likes "spot". Ty likes "Patches". Karen likes "Carmen" (or maybe Carmel?)

BTW-Stauffer's used to have Golden named peaches, if I remember correctly.
