4 Kids and Us

Well, sort of of. It’s now more like 3 Kids plus 1 Fur-Kid and Us. Our big girl, Kaydence, is turning 2 in just a few days and I convinced my husband not to throw away his overtime money on a Power Wheels Pink Mustang that she would either crash or get tired of in two weeks. So what does he do…he buys her a puppy. Awwww…I know, it’s cute, it’s sweet, and it earned him the Sweetest Daddy in the World title.

So we’d like to introduce you to Kaydee’s birthday present and our newest family member that doesn’t require bottles or diapers.

shelbi1Shelbi is a 7 week old yellow, Labrador Retriever. She’s also a 13 lb chunk. I know, because we weighed her hefty little bum when we went to Petsmart to pick up her supplies. This little girl is melting our hearts and already best buds with Kaydee.

shelbi2And now begins our Adventures in Housebreaking, as if diaper duty and toddler tantrums weren’t enough to keep me busy. So far she’s doing great, I even typed out a nice and organized “puppy potty schedule”. It pretty much goes something like this – potty, play, potty, eat, potty, sleep, potty and repeat. Coincidently, it’s Emma’s (our baby) schedule too.
