We are officially crazy. We went out to get shoes and came home with a puppy. Yup, we live crazy like that. Meet our new baby…
After our doggie passed away about 6 months ago, we knew we would eventually get another dog, but had planned to wait a couple of years.
Well, plans changed.
Honestly, plans changed because of the kids. Especially my big kid. He wanted another dog SO badly. Waiting 2 more years began to seem silly. All of the reasons we were waiting would still be there in 2 years {puppy raising/training stuff mostly}.
So this sweet girly is now ours. She is a long haired Dachshund, the kind we had always dreamed of getting. Her ears feel exactly the way I always imagined. She doesn’t have a name, but the most recent vote was Sweenie, short for “Super Weenie". I am also gathering suggestions here on my Facebook page, I love hearing all of the great ideas!
Sunday is usually my homeschool planning day {which thankfully I had gotten done on Sat night} and blog post scheduling day and instead it was get-a-puppy-day. My whole life is gonna be a bit off {just what I needed, I truly am nuts} for a bit, having a new puppy is a lot of work. Life will settle though, and when I snuggle those silky ears and look into those sweet eyes, it will all be worth it!
