Our new addition






So we have officially lost our minds. With 2 dogs an 18 month old and a 4 1/2 yr old we didn't feel busy enough. Travis just started his MBA program, online this week. So what did we do. We got a puppy!!!



I really do think I have lost my mind. He is absolutely adorable. He is a Yorkie-Poo puppy, 7 weeks old. Born on 11/22/08. He is all black and looks more Poo than Yorkie. He is not officially named yet. The short list so far is Koda, Bart, or Ringo. Hayden likes Koda best. That is the name of the little bear in brother bear.


He did not sleep well last night, so neither did I. It is like having a baby again, but messier. No diaper to keep things tidy. His parents were both about 4 1/2 lbs so he will be small.



His brothers Bullseye and Sammy are getting up there now, they are both 12 yrs old and having some health issues. Sammy has had Valley Fever and has been on meds for over a year now. Bullseye has eye problems and is having to get drops 3x a day right now. He also has arthritis in his hips, which is common in German shepards.



We want the kids to have dogs they will grow up with so we had been talking about getting a dog. I don't think we really thought we were going to do it, and then we did. A very spontaneous endeavor for us, not our usual way at all.
