the babies are coming!

Truman is way, crazy excited.  His excitement is because we have laid down vinyl flooring on the wood floor of my home office, and we've put up a playpen with some dog toys, and two stuffed puppies in it.  Truman loves stuffed animals.

He's kind of been freaking out, actually.  But he's getting used to it, which was exactly the point.  Because this week-- hopefully this afternoon-- we are going to be adding two real, live puppies to that playpen.  And Truman will freak out all over again with excitement, but at least he's getting use to the playpen itself before then.

This will be our first fostering experience.  This summer I became a volunteer at SICSA, and through my volunteering I offered to become a foster home (with B's support, of course).  Within a day or two of applying to foster, I was contacted about 11 lab mix puppies (9 weeks old) that are in need of foster homes willing to care for them at least in pairs.  We expect to be meeting them later today.  Let the adventures commence!
