New addition!

Everyone welcome Jake! He's our new addition. Sunday, we headed to the Humane Society to take a gander at the doggies. Adam was like a little kid hanging outside the bathroom as I was getting ready, hurrying me up to go look.

You can see how happy Adam is to have his new bff (well, I'm the #1 bff, but when I'm not around....).



We looked. We fell in love. We added a new family member to our new house. It was a thorough discussion - What do we do with our pristine new floors? What happens when he chews through the new furniture? Will he be house broken? What about when we leave town?

But all of those questions were answered as we deliberated over Jake. When we walked through, he stared up at us with that big tongue and we couldn't say no. He is a total laid back pup; yes, pup - all 55 lbs of him. Only 6 months old. He's going to be huge and yet, we're big fans. He's a chow/mastif mix with a little bit of lab with his webbed feet. There will be some training to be done (Adam's job), but he knows his name, he's great with the nieces and nephews and he hasn't chewed through the furniture (yet).

p.s. I tried to get a picture with out him being excited... but couldn't get one! More to come!
