Our Big Surprise

So when we decided to get a dog for Max, we thought we would skip the puppy phase and adopt an adult. I guess the joke is on us because she is having puppies! It should be any day now. I took her to the vet a week after we adopted her for a general checkup and was told that her belly was very big because she needed to be dewormed. Guess he was VERY, VERY wrong. We dewormed her and she just kept getting bigger.

Aaron and I had to laugh about it. Here Aaron was calling her Cleo the Cow because of her belly and the whole time she was just pregnant. We impressed ourselves with how quick we were to pick up on it. But then again, the vet missed it so we won't feel too bad.

When I told Max, he was thrilled. He has told everyone that it is very exciting news. He asked me if we thought it was exciting and I told him that dad and I used different words to describe the event, but that it was definitely a big deal.

So, I will post pictures soon, and if anyone knows anyone who wants a basset hound/? puppy, they will be ready in about eight weeks!!
