Meet our newest family member “Tedy Bruschi”. This little love was a completely unexpected addition to our family. I had worked overnights all weekend, and sunday my family went to church without me as I had worked saturday night and was working sunday night as well….. When I woke up sunday afternoon we had a puppy. He is the sweetest little thing, with razor sharp teeth, and an affinity for nipping at your ankles….
Add in some squeeling from Preston and Paisley as they get anxious when he nips at them and the subsequent running that they do, and we have utter chaos. A puppy who is running after some squeeling kids because he thinks its a game, and some squeeling kids who are actually afraid because his little puppy teeth hurt.
I had thought about getting these guys a dog in the future, but my plan had been a dog from the shelter, that was maybe a year old. A dog that would know not to pee in my house, a dog who was hopefully mostly finished with teething. But God knew we needed this dog I guess, so here I am with this sweet little bundle of terror… people say that having a puppy is like having a newborn, I disagree, I would have ten newborns over this puppy LOL.
I think he is going to be a wonderful addition to our family, this is just the growing phase. The part where he pees and poops and teethes, will pass, and then we will have this amazing dog in our family. God knew he would be a good addition. I can’t help but wonder if he will end up being such a good emotional support for these kiddos of mine as they go through life and all the craziness that goes with it.
