This is the new girl in Shawn's life! He always told me I was the only for him...but not so! I have been bumped to #2, at least temporarily! ;) Apparently she loves him unconditionally and is always happy to see him! 
I made the kids come outside and Shawn was behind the cars! They had NO IDEA!!! They knew there was a surprise but you can tell from the look on Kyler's face he wasn't so sure the surprise was better than him being able to play video games! (stinker)
Isn't this great! Look at their reactions...it was priceless!!! They couldn't believe it was for real. They all turned to me and asked me if this was a trick!
loving their new friend
Can you even believe that we got a dog? You are not the only ones! All of my friends were shocked that we did AND that it was my idea! I think my poor kids (and Shawn) had finally gotten their prayers answered! This is Bella. She was a stray that a friend of ours found and wasn't able to keep. When she started telling me all about her she sounded too good to be true! We think she is about 6-8 months old. She is a yellow lab. She is already potty-trained, loves and is great with kids, loves to be in the backyard, isn't a barker, doesn't chew on too much, and sleeps through the night! This is my kinda baby! We brought her home about 2 weeks ago. She has adjusted quite well here!! We took her to the vet last week and she was given a clean bill of health! We love her so much already, seems like she has always been here!

Kyler did great too!
This is where we can find Bella when we are vacuuming! She hides on the stairs, she isn't a big fan!
Just resting...
6 chatted at me:
she is beautiful! congrats! your kiddos are the perfect ages to be helpers!!!
Congrats! You won't regret it - Labs are the best!
This is one of the signs of the Apocalypse, right? JK- congrats to all of you. (Priceless pix, by the way.)
im so happy you got a homeless pet!! And bella is one lucky dog to have such a great family be her owners!!!
Wow! She seems really great. My boys would LOVE a dog, but I'm the great resister (as you used to be). Simon tells people he will get a dog when he is big and "in college." Ha! Congratulations!
I LOVE the surprise! I wish I could see Shawns face when he found out it was true! I bet it was just as shocked and just as funny! Way to go Tara, you rock! Ty was telling me yesterday how Labs are super smart and Pit Bulls are not...however he did confess that Bella does not do high five, nor sneeze on command! So she is a puppy with a lot to learn, but I am so glad for our new niece!! (for any who don't know me, I think dogs are people too) LOVE THE PICS, can't wait to meet Bella!
