The New Family Addition

No, it's not a baby, it's a new puppy! No, we were not looking for one (especially so soon after Bailey died), he sort of just fell in our lap. And we could not pass up the opportunity to give a dog a good home.

How it happened: Our Godson Conner and his Mom Heather took care of one of her co-worker's Boxer's and thought they might be able to keep it, but Conner is allergic to him. Then they had given him to her boyfriend's son, but he had to stay outside all the time (these are really not outside dogs) and they were not able to play or spend much time with him. So Heather asked if we might want him to come live with us. After thinking and talking about it for several days, we said yes! He is 14 months old, his name is Roscoe, the kids love him (and he loves the kids), and he is a great dog! Rolo is not so sure about this puppy that is trying to take over his domain, but they are playing together and getting to know one another. We feel like he fits right into our family and will be so happy here!

Yes, we know we are crazy--2 kids under 3, a dog, a new puppy, and most likely a new baby in Dec!! We love our life!
