Our 1st Son...

Well hello... I have been such a slacker. I have been meaning to write about our new son. No I am NOT pregnant or had a BABY but we did get a puppy...Duke. So here is out little story... last Wednesday I went to the airport to pick up the new arrival. He was so excited to see me and to get out of his pet taxi. He traveled from Iowa and made 2 stops on the way. One in Atlanta and then another in Texas. So it was a really long day for him. He is a Brittany Spaniel and he is about 9 weeks old now. We have had him for a little over a week. Now, I have never had a baby before but I feel like I have one now. We are trying to kennel train him and potty train him and oh my goodness... it's allot more difficult than we imagined. He is so fun. The day after we got him Brint hadn't seen him yet because he was gone fishing on his 4th of July fishing trip and so Duke and I got to bond. We went up to the Hiatt's cabin in pine and can I just tell you... Duke loves to ride in the car. He sat on my lap while I was driving (i know dangerous) the whole time and he just slept. It was so cute. My 2 sister-in-laws were with me Aryn and Leslie. Aryn brought Izzy their Chihuahua. She didn't do as good as Duke did in the car though. So then Friday Brint got and the all the men got home. They met us at the cabin and that is where Brint fell in LOVE.... Him and Duke are such buddies. As you can see from the pictures. We are so glad to have him. He is so much fun.
