We’re expecting!!!
Not a human baby (although I did totally have a dream about that the other night and it fer-reaked me out) but we will be bringing home a puppy this Saturday!  We miss the sound of pup paws on the floor (click-click, click-click) and all the love that comes with them.  We decided it was time.  And guys, he’s CUTE.
 Meet Archer!  These are some pictures from the breeder.  Would ya look at all of the tiny rolls on his front leg!  Eeee!!!!  I can hardly handle it!

Here he is with his brothers and sisters.  He’s the spunky one with the brown collar and both paws in the food.  I love that!
He’s a German Shorthair Pointer, like Ruffino.  And I think Ruff would approve.  Archer will be so loved.  I can’t wait to get my hands on those floppy ears and snuggle him in 🙂  Now, what I can wait on is the puppy training.  Lord, give me strength.
In other news – I accomplished some stuff around the house last week while my mom was here visiting that I’ll show you guys here in a couple of days.  And… since it has been oh only 4 months (second child always gets screwed) since Sam’s 1st birthday party happened and I’m already behind on sharing Izzy’s 5th birthday party, I’m declaring next week as Birthday Week here on the blog!  So be sure to check back for that!

Ruffino

I’ve been putting off writing this post because it’s still too tough.  On Sunday, January 12th, we had to put our sweet pup Ruffino to sleep.

Mugshot

Mike and I had been going through our pictures the other day and started busting up when we saw a couple of Ruff.  They totally looked like mugshot photos!  So, today I came across them again and couldn’t help myself.  Known offenses: pantie stealing, sock stealing, & drive-by food snatching I clearly have too much time…

the diaper incident

Let me paint the scene for you. I walked into my living room where my dog was sitting by the back windows looking all pathetic and lonely.  “Ruff… did you not get enough attention today?”  I walk over, scratch behind his ears, give him a big hug, and a couple smooches on the cheek.  Then,…
