Doggies!

So, when I originally thought about getting the kids a puppy, I had a chihuahua in mind. They're so tiny and cute and can be carried around anywhere we go. But, I also like boxers and have wanted one since I was a kid and one of my friends had one.

Well, as you know, I ended up getting a boxer. I love her and she's so cute and lovey, albeit very energetic and excitable. She will cuddle with me, and I can even get her to sit on my lap sometimes. The problem with that is....she weighs 60 pounds. Which just so happens to be more than my 7 year old son.

Now, don't get me wrong here, I do NOT want to get rid of my Bella, but I do want to get her a buddy and, at the same time, myself a lap dog. I know it's not gonna happen. It's hard enough trying to juggle three kids and ONE dog, let alone adding another. But, I can't help it, I still want one.
