Welcoming Chaco to the Byrd Nest

Yesterday I drove to Appotomax VA to pick up our new puppy! We were supposed to get him Saturday but she said we could come tomorrow. Being selfish we weighed the options- car all day on Saturday or pool on Saturday, and sure enough the pool won. Driving home with him was quite the experience. He wanted to play and refused to be put in another seat; so I held the little stud muffin the whole way home. Kenny picked him up for the first time and said he is a Chaco, so there you have it.

 

Nelly loved him immediately. The played all yesterday. I think today she is realizing that more attention is going to him and she is moping a little but still played the whole morning with him! 

 

 A lot of you have asked and I really don't know why, but I will go on record saying my heart still belongs to Nelly. Chaco woke up at 2 yipping and as I type this he is pitching a fit. So, no. He is not my favorite. I am sure in the years to come he will be a close second :)

 This morning Chaco walked right past the pot, and fell four steps down into the garden. Don't worry it didn't phase him at all. I picked him back up on the steps and he did it again. Walk the plank, Chaco.

 On a completely random side note- my tomatoes sprouted yesterday! This has got to mean I am doing something right!

TGIF!! So ready for some Kenny time this weekend! After reading this sentence please say a quick prayer (or begin to fast, whatever you feel necessary) that Chaco would sleep through the night.
