Tough Day!

Well...Today was a really tough day to say the least. We got another dog back in December and her name is Isis! She was only 6 weeks old when we got her, and so our days have basically consisted of potty training...
Anyways, with the new baby coming and two dogs, me and Eli just knew that we needed to make a sacrifice and find our puppy a new home. We have had multiple conversations the past couple of weeks about getting rid of a dog, but we would always talk ourselves out of it. Finally, last night I posted the ad on Craigslist :'(
This morning at 7 am we got a text and call from a family that really really wanted her. (I mean who wouldn't!? Cutest puppy ever!) I started bawling while Eli was on the phone and made him get off and tell the person he would call them back. I did NOT want to do it! But Eli is really strong and even though he was sad, he called the guy back and we decided to meet. We said our goodbyes and I cried SO hard.
This family has a couple of kids and two other dogs. They have a huge yard and offered to keep us updated on her. He even said we could visit her if we would like. (Hmmm I don't know if I could do that. I might wanna snatch her up and hide her in my car..)
I know that even though this was a really hard decision, it was the right one. We thought we would be into a house by now with enough room for two dogs, but things didn't quite work out that way. With a baby on the way, I know that 2 dogs and a newborn would be super stressful!
I am so glad that we were able to give her a home for a short time and I hope that she loves her new home and is well taken care of.

Sorry this post might be really silly to some of you, but I have always had such a tender heart when it comes to animals. I just had to let out my feelings!

I have finally stopped crying now that my eyes are totally bloodshot! And I try and smile whenever I think of my cute baby puppy Isis.

Good thing I have Eli to help me :)

Goodnight.

Happy Day of Love.

It was so good to FINALLY have Eli with me on Valentines Day this year.

He took me to lunch at Rumbi on his break and it was YUMMY!

When he got home from work, he made me leave so that he could set up his surprise :)

So of course I ventured over to the D.I.

SO glad I went, because I found another big dog kennel for Isis for only $6! Score!!

Anyways...I came home to a clean house and music playing.

This sign was on our bedroom door...

I walked in to find our room...

HEART ATTACKED! <3

Eli cut out all the hearts when he had some spare time at work the day before.

They were all over our bed...

All over our dressers...

And all over the floor...

He also left a sweet love note and a certificate for dinner, a movie, and a massage!

We had pizza, watched a batman movie (of course ;)) and played monopoly! (I got schooled btw.)

Such a great, relaxing day with my hubby. Just what we needed!
