The Bear


So I mentioned that we have a new pet... BEAR! Our super cute, super lovable, black lab/chow mix puppy. He is about 3 months old, we got him from the Golden Valley Humane Society.
He is about 98% housebroken!! He loves his chew toys (lab) and his food. He literally jumps like a foot in the air when we grab his bowl to fill it. He loves to go for walks, and is learning to stay out of the way of Chris' size 13 feet. It'll be fun to see how big he gets. He's 22 pounds right now. The vet thinks he will get to be around 65 pounds!!
The only one that has not adjusted is Gus. He is not so sure that he likes Bear yet. He spends a lot of time upstairs now. He is super curious though. He just needs to learn to smack Bear in the nose and things will be good from then on.
Emily is now out-numbered 4-1 (4 males, 1 female) in our house. Total opposite from growing up!

Wish I had a camera

With this new blog, I now realized that I need to carry a camera around. Just in case. Chris and I took Bear for a walk around Lake Harriet last night and then went and got ice cream at Sebastian Joe's. Bear, being a puppy, was trying to find anything he could to chew on. At one point he found a white stick. They way he had it in his mouth made him look like he was smoking a cigarette. You would have had to see it, but dang it was funny. Yep, really need to carry the camera!

Our First Post


We thought it would be fun to try this out. We may or may not have things that are fun or interesting, but with an 11 year old,a puppy and a cat we should have some fun things to say.
