Ok...as if life at the LeBlanc house was not about to get crazy enough, we decided to go completely insane and get a puppy. Not just any puppy mind you, we decided to get a BIG puppy. In fact, I have never in my life seen or heard of a 5 1/2 week old puppy being as big as our new puppy is. His name is Bear (I think quite fitting!) and he is a German Shepherd. He already weighs 12 pounds! Can you believe that! I will say that he is a very good tempered dog. Right now he really just sleeps and eats. He has done all of his business outside today which I have been very pleased about. We got him a small crate to sleep in, and believe it or not he really likes his crate. He has already taken 2 naps in his crate and even when he wakes up it takes him a while to cry to get let out. Now, you also have to take into account that there is a very active 10 month old crawling around and making lots of noise. I think it is safe to say Mary Lindsey makes him nervous at this point. I don't blame him! But, to all you bloggers out there, send up some prayers for us as we begin down this puppy road. I can promise you I will have some funny stories to tell over the coming weeks and months. Seriously, I think we have officially lost our minds!

I will let you know that I feel your pain. I have two dogs and two cats (the result of working at the Humane Society), as if having the baby wasn't enough. While I was pregnant, I used to foster numerous animals, and I must say that taking care of puppies really resembles the first few months of having a newborn. I fostered 6 puppies for a weekend and had absolutely NO sleep. I really think the baby was easier:)Now we are having a blast taking care of Lilla and trying to make sure that our old shelter cat doesn't use the air conditioning vents as a litter box! Mary Lindsay will love your puppy, and it will give your other dog a playmate which could potentially keep him/her from being jealous of ML. Have fun!!
