last week, for some reason, i convinced levi that i had bought a puppy.
WHY do i like to try to make him believe i did something i didn't do???
i guess i just wanted to see what his reaction would be.
also, i'm a bad liar. maybe i just think i need practice?
anyway, he wasn't happy. he said his first reaction was, "i wonder how big the dog is."
i found it interesting that his first thought wasn't, "how am i going to get rid of this dog AND my wife?"
so maaaaaaybe levi's subconscious actually wants me to buy a puppy.
maybe?
At least three times a week I try to convince my boyfriend that we should get a puppy. At least three times a week, he tells me what a terrible idea it is (because of financial and time constraints). Maybe I'll try this...
ReplyDeleteAh! I send my mom this picture all of the time hoping that she will decide to get us a puppy. Now I'm moved out and send this picture to my boyfriend, too. I better get one.
ReplyDeleteand buying a puppy is best handled like making a baby, as a long term group (of at least two) project.
ReplyDeleteand you may want to consult Gretchen. I suspect she'll have definite opinions.
i want a puppy so badly. i'm sure the bf would rather go without, but he sees how much i want one and would relent if it made me that happy. i think we're going to wait until we have a bigger place, though.
ReplyDeleteps that puppy is adorable. please get him so i can live vicariously through you.
Oh my gosh, that dog is so cute! Goldendoodle? or Wheaten/poodle? I got my dog 3 years ago, and while they are a lot of work, their love and laughs certainly makes up for it.
ReplyDeletehaha that is hilarious! I always do little lies to chris just to see his reacion. i am weird I guess!
ReplyDeleteis that a golden doodle.
ReplyDeleteone thing is very clear to me: you and the hubs belong in SF where there is plenty of yummy coffee and more dogs than children (fact.)
Yes! Get a puppy! Levi will love having the little guy once it is around!
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend and I just got a cocker spaniel and she is the BEST thing ever! We are both so happy with our decision to get a dog... it took me awhile to get him on the same page. :)
yep, it's a golden doodle! i love them & will absolutely get one some day. they're such big fluffs.
ReplyDeleteOh, and, there are SO many cute puppies that can be saved at the shelter right now. So many... :)
ReplyDeleteugh, don't taunt me, rachel!!!! ;)
ReplyDeletei think levi would kill me.
well, not really. (obviously.) but he would be quietly angry which is way worse than loud angry.
You two are so funny! I can't wait to be married! I just got engaged yesterday!!! :)
ReplyDeletecongratulations, alexis!!!!! that's awesome! :D
ReplyDeletewell if the puppy is as adorable as the one in this pic that I'm SURE that he wants you to get one! :-)
ReplyDeleteI totally want a dog too! But my hubby says no. And our landlords. :(
ReplyDeleteawesome that you posted THAT dog photo - it's exactly the kind of dog that my husband and I were looking for (goldendoodle, no?). Anyways, we got out puppy (husky mix) after we finally decided to ask God for the best dog for us. And he really is THE BEST DOG. amazing. :) I hope you can get a puppy one day! (But they are a ton of work and money too!:)
