Our New Puppy

Well, SK did it! She finally stopped sucking her thumb! The deal was~ she could get a puppy when she did. I really thought the child might go to college sucking her thumb. Will and I went to MARL (MS Animal Rescue League) on Saturday by ourselves to see what they had. I started crying when we walked in the door- I wanted to take them all. It is such a fabulous organization. The facility is beautiful and clean. We found a shep/hound mix we thought we wanted. So, Sunday we took the kids. The shep/hound was too hyper and big. The kids and I sat in the "play room" while Will brought different puppies in for us to "try out." We kept saying we wouldn't get a lab bc they're so hyper and love to chew. Guess what we ended up getting: Meet our lab, Marley
Coop and SK waiting to see what puppy Daddy will bring next. Notice, Cooper holding the leash~ but he is not crazy about dogs. Marlee is growing on him though.
