Tha pooch. Day 1

We got up at the crack of stupid this morning (5am) to go get our boy. Matt went out and grabbed us a quick breakfast before we hit the road. After a long hour and twenty minutes he was in our arms.

The ride home was....long as well. He sat up with me for about ten minutes, then started getting out of hand so I put him in the little box down by my feet. Thankfully he didn't pee or poop or vomit because, you know, I obviously had to forget a towel/blanket and paper towels. AND his color and leash, in case we had to stop. Oh well, we made it unsoiled. And once we all got out he did his pee.

Coming into the house, he was a little shaky and unsure. Actually most of the day he was shaky and nervous. But towards the evening he really started to warm up. He's even getting used to the toddler that has a pretty much constant volume level of MAX. And he sleeps more than I expected. He had four accidents today. All pee. But he had WAY more successful outside potty trips. I'm pretty proud of him, and me. We did good. I'm still going to hope for better today though.
My mom loves him. She thinks he's gorgeous and she wants one of her own.

Leah was a little bit more attention-seeking. Which I completely understand. And i tried my hardest to be patient and good to her too. When saying her prayers, she just could wait to blurt out "bless you Jax" My sweet girl. She truly loves her puppy.

At night. Gosh, really? We have a newborn again. The weird part is, when we went to bed I looked at matt and said "Who's getting up with him first?" Lol lucky for me, he did. We went to bed around midnight. Matt took him out at 3 to go pee. At 4 I got up with him because he was whining again. He did his pee and got a treat. And 6 I got up with him again, because he was whining. Took him out, he peed. We came in and he ate and drank, so we went back out 5 mins later. Since everyone was sleeping still, it was just me and him. In my jammies, no makeup, no hair brushed. Don't judge. He did his business again. And i was happy.
We made him a comfy little bed out of an old wicker basket I had laying around. He slept in it, and being the little chicken he is (at the moment anyways), he was too afraid to climb out, so he had ZERO accidents all night!
And now, some pictures. :-)
