New Puppy

David and I just got a new puppy. She is a cockapoo (cocker spaniel/poodle) and is 12 weeks old. We are working on the training process, but she seems to be doing pretty well so far. She doesn't bark and seems to be a good puppy, besides the not sleeping through the night part. Hopefully that won't last too long...
Here are some pictures and a little video at the bottom (no sound though). We haven't decided on a name yet, so if you have any ideas you can give us suggestions in the comments section!

Backyard

We recently finished getting our backyard landscaped, and we're pretty happy with the results. Our yard was just dirt with a concrete slab by the sliding glass door before. Our yard is L-shaped, so we didn't have a lot of width to work with, and the HOA also said we had to plant things 3 ft away from the wall/fence. We put an area of artificial grass in for the dog that we are hoping to get soon (also, real grass does not do well here in Las Vegas). The plants will be getting bigger and start to look nicer as some time goes by. Here are some pictures!
