Our new family member!

i have wanted to get a puppy really since i left my parents and went off to college, and then after my sister got Maya, her pup and she is seriously the best trained dog i have ever met and lived with... i got nervous bc what if i didn't train my dog as well...i what if i didn't love my dog as much, bc i seriously LOVE Maya! then life went on...travels, work, got married to my wonderful husband...still one of those things i wanted...but a big responsibility...and money....

but then God provided a house... and i sort of got obsessed with the idea of finally getting one....was looking non stop and junior and i would visit the humane society now and again... i kept telling junior it would be a great gift... 

however we didn't agree on dogs...so just started praying that God would give us the one that was right for us! 

one afternoon we decided to go run to the humane society...and it just happened like that...it was so surreal, in fact not until we were walking out the door did i realize we just seriously adapted a puppy... 

my early valentines day and part of my birthday gift from junior!!!!! he is so sweet.... 

its been an adventure ever since...its so sweet to share something like a puppy with junior we are officially  3 in the family now! we named him Brody Blitz Jovin.... couldn't decide on Brody or blitz, but we have 3 names, so its only fair he does too!

he is a good dog, practically came to the house potty trained and crate trained already...he is super smart, but a bit stubborn at times.... he is a snorer and loves to sniff and play catch... he also has started to love digging in the yard...we are working on this one.... he loves his papa junior, often listens to him better (the deeper voice i believe) and never chews his food...it is literally gone in seconds.... he also loves to snuggle  and go on walks.... we are in love with this little guy...

its great practice for kids....but everyone don't hold your breath, we are definitely not there yet.... 

our sweet friend Sarah is going to take picture of the three of us this Sunday and i will be sure to get some on here as soon as i can, but wanted to leave you with a couple shots i have taken of him from my phone....he is a cutie.... we are pretty sure he is a plott hound/lab mix... but who knows...he is just a sweet mutt!!!

Trip to the dog park! 

On the way to the pet doctor...
