And then there were four...

So who needs a new brother or sister when you can have... a new PUPPY!!! Merry Christmas to Nathan and to us! Last night marked Lucy's first night as a member of the Bull family. She's doing pretty good so far considering her mommy and 8 brothers and sisters are still living next door! Nathan is LOVING having a new playmate! Although one time she got a little rough with his little sock foot and he wasn't loving her so much then :) But we're excited and hoping that along with lots of fun times and new memories... she will bring the added bonus of keeping those pesky varmits out my house! God bless you all and have a MERRY Christmas!
Which one should we take home Nathan? Looks like you like them all!

She's the one!

Nathan loving on Lucy (we're hoping his "loving" stays gentle :)

Our neighbors... Lucy's Bolivian Family and her 8 other brothers and sisters :)

  1. I love her! How fun! And wherever did you get the name for her?! :)
    We hope to get Shelby a puppy sometime next year, after her daddy puts up the rest of our fence. We do not want an inside dog!

  2. Lucy, you have some splaining to do! She is sooo sweet. For some reason, I wasn't thinking 'puppy' I was thinking 'dog.' So she is so little! I remember when Garrett was little and they had Blue as a puppy. He was sometimes so precious with her, and others incredibly antagonistic! But she is still fiercely protective of him now, 12 years later, so apparently she doesn't hold grudges. I'm sure this will be similar with Nathan and Lucy. And thanks for the pic of you -- it was great to see you.

  5. I'm such a sucker for lab pubs! And you've got 8 more next door? How did you come home with only one?!?!

    Julie's right - the bond a boy has with his dog is one that he'll never forget!

  6. How cute is Lucy! Nathan is soooo lucky to have a puppy and like Julie said- boys and dogs just go together! Have a wonderful Christmas!!

  7. Yea! We are such a dog family, and I'm always thrilled to pieces when a loving family adds a dog to the mix. Our little dog is very much the "sister" to our daughter (okay, not to the extreme, but our daughter will say, "Good morning, sister Emma."). Lucy will add a few more fun memories to the Bull Family mix.

  8. Enjoy the new lab! They are wonderful and intelligent dogs. Mine is 4 yrs old now and my best bud. Of course... he wasn't my best bud until he was house-broken.

  9. Good luck with the puppy phase. Minka almost didn't make it to 3 months! Hope Lucy is better behaved as a puppy! I have a quick question for you, Laura. Email me at stampnights@hotmail.com so I have your address.
    Love you guys!
