Lookit what we are getting...

Yeah, hello, my name is is Candy and I'm the world biggest sucker mommy on the planet. Apparently my kids are not really believing that the hermit crabs are the same as having a dog. They've been bothering us about it for almost a year now, since we moved into the house. It's not that I don't like dogs because I do, I just don't like the shedding, but since this house is mostly tile, it won't be as big of a deal, plus this dog probably won't shed a whole lot. Meet CoCo Chanel - we pick her up Thursday. She's a Chihuahua, 12 weeks old.

I figure it's fate we found her. I posted an "in search of" post on Craigslist thinking I'd at least collect a list of breeders and this lady contacted me. For various reasons, she cannot keep her and we actually have a lot in common with her family. Definitely fate. So, we are getting a small dog. Tom wanted a golden retriever. Ummm... no, remember, low shedding here people!
