Yet another "I'll never do that" done this year.
First it was Facebook. I had to join for business marketing reasons.
Now this . . .
We have heard for years how much Cal wanted a dog. He tells us he wanted one "his whole little kid life" and that his dog will sleep right in his bed with him. Cami has always been a little scared of dogs but has recently been coming around to like little ones.
On May 8th, while both kids were at birthday parties I drove down to the Colorado Puppy Rescue adoption event and picked up this guy. Cam and I had picked him out of about 20 puppies online as our favorite but the kids had no idea. Cal was absolutely in shock. He kept saying "This is our dog???" Cami on the other hand was super excited.
After much name discussion we decided on Phineas because he likes to chew on aglets. Check out Phineas and Ferb on Disney Channel if you have no idea what I am talking about. On one episode, Phineas and Ferb put on this whole Aglet Awareness campaign so it was pretty hilarious when Cal turns to me and says, "Mom, he's eating your aglet!"
So far, we have lost one pair of purple mary jane crocs, one aglet, and many hours of sleep but how could we pass on this pure joy?
Seriously, the kids didn't even ask to turn on the tv for a couple of days. More pics and more of what Cami thinks coming when I download my other memory card.
