I Must Be Crazy

After my ranting and raving about dog hair, I got myself into more trouble. We got another dog! There was a family who decided that they no longer wanted Maggie, a 3 year old female Puggle. Jon and I thought this would be a good opportunity to give Caesar a girl-friend, at least for a short while until we find her a good home.
Maggie is very easy to fall in love with. She is just a sweet heart! She also has a big under-bite so she always looks mad or confused. Caesar and Maggie have a lot of fun wrestling and humping, it is quite entertaining.









Even though we have a baby on the way, this is a really hard decision. I think about how happy they are together and I want to keep her. Then I think about how crazy they can be, and then adding a baby stresses me out.

Tonight Jon and I took advantage of the warm weather and took them to the park. Caesar has always been a very good dog off the leash and coming when called. It is a luxury that we want Maggie to learn. While at the park we tied Caesar and Maggie together hoping Caesar would be a good teacher. It worked pretty well, and it was so cute when they would come and sit together. There were a few times that Maggie dragged Caesar when he was trying to listen and come to us, it was really funny. Poor Caesar, he is such a push-over. I know I must be crazy for even considering this puppy, but just look at her! Anyway, enjoy the pics...we will let you know what happens.

New Vacuum and More

As most of you know our sweet puppy sheds a TON. His hair gets everywhere regardless of how often I give him a bath and brush him. The hair was annoying before but it never really bothered me. Recently his hair has become completely disgusting and bothersome. Not only do I get annoyed with one small hair but then I look at the carpet and the thought of my baby laying on the floor and getting hair in her mouth or even on her clothes really bothers me. Our old vacuum cleaner died a few weeks ago so I decided it was time to invest in a nice vacuum. I wanted to make sure it wasn't just something that moves around on the floor so I feel good for vacuuming, but a really good one that will pick up the dog hair and make the floor a safe place for my baby. I did my research and found a really good price on a Eureka Optima Pet Lover.

After purchasing the vacuum I have found myself almost obsessed with vacuuming, plus it has an awesome attachment that really picks up dog hair off my couch...I love it!!!

It is really weird how this baby has effected my life before she is even born. I find myself thinking about our future in a different light and even the thought of her not being in our future is more depressing than I expected. She is a very active little girl and I can always count on her to jump on my bladder at least once a day. Last week she kept getting the hiccups and it made me have to pee.

Jon is finishing up the winter semester this week. He only gets a break for a few days before he is starting spring semester. He is still on track to graduate April 2010 and he is working so hard to get through school as quickly as possible without going crazy. I am so grateful that I have a husband who is so loving, supportive, and hardworking. He works so hard not only in school and work, but also to keep me happy. I just want to let everyone know how wonderful he is, I can't imagine myself without him.

23 Weeks!!!

I have to admit that I posted a picture of my belly with my previous post, but then I removed that picture because I thought my belly looked too big...silly I know. Im used to looking at my belly by looking down, so when I saw the picture to the side it took my by surprise. So here is a picture of me at 23 weeks.
