I know you guys love your torts, but my baby is the best. Hands down. Just LOOK at her. (Danny thinks it's a girl, so unless she starts displaying very manly qualities...."she" it is).

Bernadette arrived this morning! She got a soak and bit of sunshine before I had to go back to class, and ate like a hound. She's currently dug a burrow under one of the plants and is chilling in there. Enjoy the pictures!

Thanks Becki :) I already love her like crazy. I'm reading to her right now and she's sleeping the afternoon away under the "purple" plant. :)

Very cute! Congrats. :)

Can't tell if you have something under that food, so I thought I'd mention a slate tile works great.

Take lots of pictures as they grow up very fast, and good luck!

Thanks everyone! More coming just as soon as I beat my trackpad into submission. I do have a feeding dish for her, but thank you for looking out for me!

I love her so much already! It was hard for me to leave her at home and go to school.

I'm surprised Imageshak didn't re-size those pictures for you. Man-o-man! they took forever to load on my computer!!

But congrats on your little baby. She's just adorable!

haha glad I'm not the only one! My original reply started off as "Holy mother of God, are these pictures enormous for anyone else??" but then they resized somewhat ;)

I'm really sorry :( By the time I realized they were huge my edit period was up. It usually does resize them. I haven't got a clue why it didn't this time.

At least they're really cute, right?

I do but I want to resize them first so I'm playing with imageshack when I have time. I took about 80 yesterday, no lie. Took a couple today as well but mostly I've been in class just running home to make sure she was still ok.

Look for some tomorrow night, maybe? :)

I'm glad you guys agree that she's pretty much perfection. I know I already dote on her. :)

Ooooh or instead of fighting with imageshack...

^that's the facebook album. It's set to public eyes so you should be able to browse the pictures at your leisure. There's lots :) If it doesn't work let me know and I'll go back to plan A.
