Praises of a Wife and Mommy

One of the many reasons we wanted a house was so we could get a family dog.  :)  We had a dog before when we lived in a house but when we found him a new home before we moved into our old apartment.  I have really missed our little Izzy!   Well, one of our students from youth group had a dog who had puppies a little before Easter and today we went and looked at all the adorable puppies, which there were 8 of them!!!  It is a blessing for us to find a cute puppy and the family is almost giving us the puppy for free so Praise GOD!  :)  We feel so blessed and we are so excited!   The dog is a mixture of Boxer, Chow, Spaniel, and Terrier.  I think they were so adorable!  :)   We have a few weeks to get everything we need for the puppy.  We get to go visit her a couple more times and pick her up to bring to her home on May 27th,  which won't be here soon enough according to my daughter. HELP us PICK A NAME!  

We were on a walk with my sister's dog's and well her pug is a bit overweight and he refused to walk any further.   Luckily we had the stroller and he took a ride.  LOL!!!  We thought he would jump out but nope he stayed in for the ride.  :)  LOL!  We did have some genuine concern for him because he was breathing so heavily and it sounded terrible. Even after we got home he kept up the load hacking but I guess the deep heavy breathing is normal for a pug.  He is 6 years old! Funny pose!  

My kids got to meet my sisters dogs this weekend.  The dogs love the kids and Selah is enjoying playing with them.  Titus got scared when they barked and started to cry but later he warmed up to them and started smiling when they go close to his face.
