Meet Max

We got a dog! The kids have asked for years and I always told them that after everyone was potty trained we could discuss it. They have remembered this and took me up on it a few weeks ago. We rescued him from a shelter. He is 8 weeks old and he is a German Shepherd mix. We are hoping that he will be big enough to go running with me by next year. :)

His name is Maxwell. The kids call him Max...except Kate. She calls him Maxey. I'm sure he loves it. He is super mellow for a puppy. He lets Sam drag him all over the house and lay all over him without making a fuss. The kids are great about feeding and walking him (we will see how long that lasts!).

Here is one of Sam making Max look at the camera. Doesn't he look thrilled?
