Meet Lexi!

Lexi is a 6 week old Great Dane. She was born January 31 and already weighs 19 pounds. Drew and I picked her up yesterday from a family in Lexington (hint: how we came up with the name). She is the sweetest, most playful dog and newest member of our "relationship". Drew has always wanted a Great Dane. He loves the idea of a big dog that will grab people's attention on the street, but is also relatively lazy and not high energy. So after careful research and conversations with me and his family we chose this beauty. She is still growing into her paws. Right now, they are so big, she practically gallops across the floor when she tries to go fast. A lot of times she ends up sliding on the slick surface.Don't be fooled by the blue collar. The family gave us the extra collar, but she will have a girlie one on there soon. The blue does bring out her eyes though... She loves to be in the sun.I keep saying she is a mix between Drew and I. She sleeps like a rock - (doesn't even flinch when the train passes...including when she's awake), but she's always cold and loves a blanket on her.
