The One Where You May Say I'm a Little Bit Crazy...

Do you remember when I wrote a post and I had a picture of a puppy? To be more specific it was of a group of puppies...golden retriever puppies if I may.

Fast forward a few weeks. I've been begging my heart out discussing with Leo about getting a puppy. We've talked and talked and talked.

Maybe it has been me talking to him and trying to warm him up on the idea of having a family dog. He wants one...but wanted to wait another couple of months. Hm. I really don't like waiting. Remember--I told you I'm having baby fever with Madelyn's 1st Birthday rapidly approaching...it's awful! Do you get baby fever?? I did the same thing when Isabella turned 1...

And now look...Madelyn is here with us!

I rest my case about the baby fever.

Fast forward to yesterday. It had been a typical Monday. Which means that tantrums were in full force, I felt like my cold was coming back and I had a fever. Not fun.

Leo walked in and sat down in our living room. He asked me to put down the laptop. I told asked him to hold on just one more second. He insisted that I put it down--that this was important...so I sat it down.

He's grinning ear to ear--I love seeing him happy! And then?

He told me that we could get Macy. The golden retriever puppy that I have been wanting. The golden retriever puppy that I know belongs with my family. We pick her up on the 19th on our way home from Tennessee and I am SO excited! Isabella has been jumping up and down saying "Macy! Macy! Macy!"--to say she is excited is an understatement...

So here is our newest family member, Macy. Almost 11 weeks old and the cutest little furball ever!
