New Puppy

As some of you know, we've been really wanting to expand our family a little bit by adopting a puppy. We had finally decided that a lab would be the best fit for our family, as Silas wanted an athletic dog that he could play with, and I wanted a lovable, cuddly dog that would suit our future family too.

When we came across this photo, from the St. Francis Animal Shelter in Georgetown, we knew that we were smitten.


We headed down to see him, and he walked right over to us. Our little puppy's name was Thurston, and he was so cute, walked right over to the gate, and seemed unaffected by his brothers and sisters jumping all over him. He was a very cuddly shy puppy, and we just had to bring him home. He stayed behind in Georgetown to get neutered as well as have his final vaccines done. 

Then, we brought him home, and decided to change his name to Linus. Linus is officially part of the family! At 7 weeks and only 7 pounds, he sure is a little guy. Here are some cute photos for you!



We'll keep you up to date as we experience life in raising a puppy!
