It happened~

We have a DOG!!! I thought that it wouldn't happen ever....but it did.....and from going to not even thinking about getting a dog to three days later having a puppy running around whew, crazy. My sweet husband caved and at one point I think that he was even convincing me! What? Jesse said that any dog coming into this house was going to come from him and it would go to his princess Sophie. Major brownie points have been given to Daddy. We found little Ricky and the kids couldn't be happier. It is a lot of work having a puppy (for me!) but it is totally worth it when I hear the laughter that this little guy has brought into our home. Dylan liked the name Ricky and Sophie liked the name Bobbie so his name is Ricky Bobby! Jesse and I wanted to surprise the kids so we drove 2 hours to look and him and hopefully take him home, and we did! Jesse loves this little guy and I knew he had some dog love in him. Sophie carries him around everywhere and tells him he is the king and she places him onto things and says, "here is your throne king!" It is seriously the cutest thing ever. Enjoy the photos of our new little buddy!
Side Note: Thanks to Grannie Joan for seriously putting the idea about a dog into our heads!! We love you!!

What kind of dog is it? I love my dog but he can be a pain.... I thought I wanted another dog until I took care of 5 dogs at once. ONE is enough. Do you remember all the times we had to talk the Mr into a dog? Especially Norm. It's funny because Norm, Sallee and McTavish have been his dogs. They absolutely love him.
Have fun.. he is so cute and the kids look like they adore him.
