Monday :
- Long day back post a good weekend for all of us but I wrapped the day with a nice long walk with Tena - such great weather!!
Tuesday :
- I went into the office today
- Our kids enjoyed the amazing weather at school and at home after their day wrapped
Wednesday :
- A super long day at the office for me with not getting home until about 800p BUT I got to catch up with a former co-worker on the drive home and we got a more recent picture of Diamond (about to be Rosie) so all in all a great day!
Thursday :
- Tena's Birthday!
- We had full days with both of us at home but we had a break in our morning with Jane Marie, interior designer, popping by to give us some recommendations for some decorating touches on the house (kitchen back plash, living room furniture layout, lighting fixtures, carpet etc). We look forward to seeing what she thinks!
- I got some late night work prep wrapped and then Clint and I headed over to the Harty's to share a cocktail with Tena and Nate for her birthday, they are heading to FL the next day for a long weekend with some friends
Friday :
- Normal work day followed by gymnastics with the kiddos
- We then ate at Sunshine Factory before coming home to cleaning some stuff up around the house and my email inbox.
- Completed All American Season 2
Saturday :
- Up for Maci's soccer at 7a and while Clint took her I got some clean up done around the house and for work
- They brought home bagels for breakfast and we continued to do house chores, plan meals, order groceries etc
- We had a busy morning b/c we knew once we did the Puppy Drop that the rest of the day would be all about Rosie!
- Around 1230p we left the house to get lunch at Countryside Cafe and the kids still had zero clue about what the surprise was, so many guesses but not on the money!
- We then drove to Cabela's and pulled to the pet exercise area in the back and saw all the puppies playing in a grassy area 💖
- Clint video taped me and the kids on our walk up - Connor was lost and Maci was slowly registering that these are puppies but took a while to realize we were getting one!!
- Rosie was playing with a sister puppy and we happily grabbed her and let the kids play with her while I got paperwork etc. Within 10 mins, we were off in the car taking her home. She did great on the ride and then we played outside for almost an hour.
- She LOVES to chase the kids up and down the hill in the back, so cute! She follows Maci everywhere, does not love a leash yet but really loves exploring our big yard!
- We took a family walk to the neighborhood park with me carrying her at points - she is currently 8.3 lbs. Maci wouldn't play on the playground, she wanted to sit with Rosie, walk Rosie, show her to her friends at the playground etc. She is head over heels! Also a gorgeous day to get a puppy with sunshine and almost 60 degrees!
- At 6p Kaitlin came as we had a pre-planned date night
- She was awesome with the kids and dogs, Boomer is totally ignoring Rosie and the only time she has barked is when she wants Boomer to play with her and he just stares at her. HA
- We got home and then started the really long night! Poor Rosie will be crate trained and this was her first night away from mom and siblings + Boomer didn't want to go anywhere near her crate when she whined. We let her go on and off from about 11:30p to 1:15a. Clint then got up and let her out which helped but then back to whining. So Clint got up and came down to lie by the crate and humm to her. This worked and she then slept from about 2a to 6a. We also lost an hour of sleep so we are all zombies walking here today!
Clueless Saturday Morning
So Excited
Car Ride
So Much Fun Outside at Home
Both Kids Love her but Maci is clearly her Person
Sunday :
- Maci and Connor woke up at 6a (not like them and that is usually 5a so they will be exhausted tonight!) They right away took on carrying for her so Clint and I laid in bed until about 8a (usually 7a ugh!). She is the calmest sweetest dog when not in the kennel and even in the kennel she just cries :(
- Clint ran to get donuts at Cub for Cael's 12th birthday since Tena/Nate are out of town and when he was back we were all chugging coffee.
- We had several rounds of playing outside, only 1 pee accident so far when she was with the kids this morning.
- She then napped with Clint in the basement and me on the couch.
- We are about to take a walk to the park again soon and then I need to do some work prep.
- We have a yummy dinner planned at home tonight, early bed times for the kids and lazy couch time for Clint/me and Rosie so she is ready for her crate and some different strategies for more rest tonight.
Sunday Morning Snuggles
We can't wait for all of you to meet this sweet thang and we look forward to Boomer warming up to the idea of running and playing vs staring at her HAHA 😜
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
