What Were We Thinking?

Hannah has been BEGGING for a puppy and I mean BEGGING! So, last night we decided to go look at some dogs. Just to look and pet and so forth. However, somehow a few crocodile tears later, we managed to come home with the newest member of our family. Meet Fuzzy Bones:
Yes, that is his name; Fuzzy Bones! Hannah got to pick it because she really wanted a chihuahua and I did not so we compromised and she got to pick the name. He is a mutt Peekapoo , meaning he was intentionally "mixed" between a Pekingese and Toy Poodle.
Hopefully, he won't get much bigger. Also, hopefully he won't shed! He is a little cutie who has already stolen our hearts, but I kind of forgot how much work a puppy is!!! We are off to the store to buy the puppy essentials. One chew toy just isn't enough and if he chews my new furniture (to be delivered Saturday, yay!) he will quickly become an outdoor dog.

Awwwwww!!!! He is soooo cute!!! I love his name! So adorable! My girls have been begging too... I still have to get used to having a family of 5 plus a cat before we add another pet! Have fun training him, I hope he leaves your new furniture alone!

Wow! If you adopt me and I cry will you buy me a Mercedes? PLease! LOL! That little puppy face coupled with the kiddos begging must have really done you in! Fuzzy is so cute although I applaud you-I don't think I could do a dog right now-Preston is such a handful. Enjoy! And post pics of the new furniture-I love furniture shopping!

Haha! Too funny Kim. Usually the crying doesn't work on us, but I think we both had already fell for the cute puppy face.

He is pretty cute, but I don't want to hear any complaints ;) I only wish I could be down to 1 small, nonshedding dog.
