..and baby makes 5 (if you count the dogs)

So we are very excited to be expecting our first (non-fur) baby and to be starting a family! I am almost 4 months along and due the beginning of October. I am a little nervous about how the dogs will be when we bring a baby home, mostly because we are still practicing 'manners' with Napa. She doesn't really know she weighs 70lbs...that could be a problem. We started going back to training with her, and I am proud to announce she is doing great (as long as you have a peanut butter treat in your hand, pocket, or anywhere it can be sniffed out).
We just finished training level 1. Wish us luck on level 2! I'm not sure what level it is when you can get your dog to listen without treats...but that is the level we would like to be at. As I write this, I glance over at her (see pic) and she looks so peaceful and harmless. Then I realize it is all part of her master plan, what a tricky Golden! In a few minutes she will hear a dog bark outside, she will leap over the back of the couch, and knock over at least 2-3 things on her way to the back door. That my friend, is the reality of a spoiled Golden.
By the way I take 25% responsibility for this, the other 75% belongs to my husband for hugging her every time I try to tell her 'no'. (see evidence below).

I should have called this blog ' The Sweet Life of a Golden Retriever'.

Oh yeah, and back to the baby (the real reason this post was intended to be written). Nick and I are battling with names. The only name we seem to agree on is for a Girl, so let's hope that is what we get. Otherwise, it will be a battle to end between Nicholas Jr. and Noah. Guess which one I like?! Do I get an extra point for carrying the baby for 9 months, morning (all day) sickness, exhaustion, and body aches? Nick says I don't because he has to listen to me complain, which then makes us even. Let's take a vote...who's on my side?

If your on Nick's side, you can keep your opinion to yourself ;)

    I think the momma wins the name battle! but this could be partially due to the fact that i know which name you like and i like it too ;)
