The Unbearable Cuteness of Being

So you know how we finally broke our "no pet" rule and got a bunny? Well, the very same weekend, our friends got a new puppy. Behold the cuteness that is Lucy.

We couldn't pass up a little romp in the grass with the two of them together. Aren't they the cutest little things?

And by the way, WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME?? Why am I suddenly finding these animals so cute? And why am I using the word "cute" in every other sentence? Is this just a honeymoon stage, or am I actually finding a teeny tiny little space in my gristly, grinchy heart to become a PET LOVER? (gasp!)

Don't worry, mom, I'm pretty sure it will pass...
