So, yesterday was Mia’s birthday. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to do much with her. She had school; however, Jennifer and I met her there and had lunch with her (Subway). After school she had gymnastics till 7:45 and Jennifer had to stay and sell pizza for the booster club till 8:15. Tonight we will be taking her out to dinner for her birthday. She wants to go to Red Robin.
I haven’t mentioned this yet, but we are getting a new puppy. Our house is really quiet and seems empty without that big personality that was Kodi. So, we decided a month or so ago that we would add another dog to the mix.
We found a place, somewhat local, that breed Saints and they actually had a litter that was expecting late Feb. Perfect, I placed the call and we were placed 8th on the list. About a week ago I sent a follow-up e-mail to find out if we moved up (we were worried she might not have 8 puppies) and to ask how Jada (the Saint mommy) was doing. We found out we jumped one spot to number 7.
Well, yesterday Jada had her puppies! She had 7 of them on Mia’s birthday. So, we took that as a sign that it was meant to be. She had 4 males and 3 females, so we are almost assured a female as there are 5 ahead of us that have preference on males. That was our preference as well. But, it really doesn’t matter either way.
Since we decided to get a puppy…we have been thinking about male dog names and suddenly we have to switch that. So, I went to Game of Thrones and came up with the following names:
- Daenerys
- Rhaella
- Arya
- Shae
Hopefully I can convince Jennifer to go with one of them. She did say she liked Rhaella. Although I prefer Daenerys and Arya. But, that is probably more to do with how much I like those characters on G of T. Anyway, that’s what’s going on in our world. We will be getting our puppy in late April and that is going to change our world as we know it.
