First welcome back Tess,I hope you enjoyed your holidays! ^.^
I really like the new 2nd-gen litter,grey & purple are among my favourite colours and I love the parents.The newborns are very cute and I can't wait to see how they turn up as puppies/adults <3
I don't mind the fact that they take long to grow up though,it's a good idea in my opinion
I'm also very much relieved to see the old 2nd gens were not retired ( I was scared when I logged in and saw the "new" sign next to them ).Even when I have all of the variations already I still like seeing them around and I enjoy getting some new puppies from time to time out of the couples I have not yet maxed :3
The bad news is that I didn't get the pink blanket one

,no matter how much I started to hint names after the 7th adoption..oh well T_T
“What I hear is never the same.
A walk through the woods brings a light crackling song:
Leaves rustle in the wind, birds chatter and squirrels scold,
twigs crunch underfoot,
and the beat of my heart holds it all together.
When you join the flow,
the music is inside and outside,
and both are the same.
As long as I can listen to the moment,
I'll always have music.”
