So today we took a big leap and decided to go ahead and get the kids a dog. Here is their reaction.
More excitement over our newest family member!
Gotta admit, this is one cute doggy!
Now on to the fun stuff! Many of you have given us suggestions for our newest family member. He is a boy doggy so use that in making suggestions for you entry into the name that doggy contest. That's right a contest! All you have to do is give us name suggestions. One name per comment and you can leave as many names as you like. Each will count as one entry.
Once we decide on a name the winner will receive a very special surprise gift. If you have ever entered a giveaway or contest here then you know it will be something good. So get to commenting and leaving your suggestions for a name.
If we do not use any of the names that are entered when we name him, then we will pick our favorite and that persons name will be the contest winner.
So go on! Name our doggy!

Oh, Tim...I had no idea you were getting a puppy so soon...he is PRECIOUS! I love his coloring! I just know you won't regret your decision, though last night was probably a very long night. Puppies tend to whine a lot at night. It WILL get better!
OK, my name suggestion for today is Boomer.
Congratulations on becoming a father...AGAIN! :)
How about Cricket? I'll keep thinking about it!
Congrats on your new furbaby!!!!!!
I love how he settled right in to Taylor's lap! How cute!
You should totally name him:
FOZZIE
Does my previous suggestion count? I still say Doug (the Dog). That's my son's dog's name. Granted, he's stuffed, but still....
How does Rusty grab ya?
What about Snickers?
Umm...how about Amy..LOL. Oh nope will not work cause the cute dog is a boy...well how about Tinker..lol
If I win do I get a brother or sister to the puppy...huh? I want one..I do..really..lol
Bear, Theo, Teddy, Buddy, Titan (a big name for a cute little dog), Stevie, Harley, Charlie, piper, Fonzie.
He's super cute by the way...Is he sleeping good at night for ya?
What a cute puppy! OMGoodness I need one like that.
He is absolutely adorable!
I think Trooper would be an adorable name.
I'm a new fan of the blog--here are my suggestions: Shorty, Cooper, Rowzy, Toby or Gizmo. He's a cutie!
OMG, that first video is PRICELESS! Taylor's reaction is the sweetest thing I have ever seen! And that sweet pup is precious!! OK, a name....what about Tex...or Dallas? You knew my suggestion would have something to do with Texas, right?
Or Harley is another cute one...
what a cutie.... i am an animal lover and would steal him if he gave me puppy kisses... lol...
hmmm, a boy name.... General
How about Barkley? He's a cutie!
Sarge
Bear
Bogey
Oh, so cute!!
Ill list the ones I did yesterday. Again, I am partial to 'M' names. Mason, Max, Miller, Massey (Mass-e)...
I'm back, again...what about Roscoe?
How about Texan?
Abby said for me to suggest Benji. We adore your puppy!
Oh, I'm on a roll! How about Chaz?
Got another one...Peanut!
Oh how cute! Gosh... I don't know about names. They all sound great so far. I like Benji a little as a reference to Pvt. Benjamin. But you could shorten it to Benny cuz he's so stinkin' cute! Okay, so Benny/Bennie is my suggestion. Have fun!!
Tim, how about Tucker?
We get our new dog, a beagle, on April 26. We are excited to welcome a new little girl to our home after losing our little girl last August.
Her name will be Ruby! So, we are preparing ourselves for a busy few months now as we prepare for lots of playing and housebreaking!!! LOL.

Tim, I was scouring the net for info this AM and found this video on working with our new puppies. I hope you don't mind me sharing it here - his tips are very important regarding socialization.
How about Charlie?
I am impressed with how gentle both of your kids were - that's such a good start!
Oso, or Osito (spanish for bear, little bear)
Bailey :)
The kids will love that dog FOREVER!
What adorable videos! :)
I'm back with my suggestions of Sargeant, Major or this new one...Gunnar! :)
I think you should name him "Hemi." Everyone will think it's for the powerful Hemi engine and for how he tears around as puppies do. But WE'LL know it was for what your "cancer" turned out to be and God's grace to YOU and your FAM! LOL
How about Gizmo?
Congrats on your newest family member!!
Oh goodness there are lots o choices here! Some really good ones.
So I will just say that he is too cute :) Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed hearing your daughter giggle in the last video, you can tell how happy she is!
OK, Tim...here I go, again! How about Gooch?
What about Fuzzie?
I told you I'm on a roll...how about Rio?
Jed, perhaps?
What about Sport?
I've always been a fan of Beau...after hearing that poem of the same name written by Jimmy Stewart.
How about Rambo? OK, I'm going to stop for now!
The puppy is too cute….kids are adorable, too.
A few name suggestions:
RAG-A-MUFFIN
POUNCER (he looked so cute trying to pounce on your hubby's hand)
CURLY (his fur looks curly, but I was thinking about the Three Stooges!)
Kellee….not a name suggestion!!!
Loved the kissing one pic. Can't decide between "snuggles" or "giggles" for the pup name. He's a cutie.
What a cute puppy.
Spencer :)
Tim! Thanks for visiting my site and for your comments - too fun. :) And thank you, too, for deciding to FOLLOW! I always tell people I realize time is finite. When someone signs up to follow it means they'll be back and choosing to spend some of YOUR time at my blog is very special to me. Blessings!
OH! And you have a beautiful wife and DARLING children. What smiles.
They look to be about the same spread as my two. Daughter is 18 and son is 14. YEARS of fun and still lovin' every minute of it. (Ok, I lied, there are a FEW minutes every now and then.......!)
I love the new family member.....he looks like a SCRUFFY to me!

Hi Tim, Your new dog is precious!!! I loved the videos, your kids were so excited. The easter pics are adorable, Your kids have got to be some of the cutest I've ever seen. They could models!! You got alot of great names from our fellow bloggers. I had a dog named Romeo once. I also like Harley and Bentley. I'm sure whatever you decide will fit him perfectly! Kristen

The color just reminds me of candy for some reason. My last entry was Butterscotch.
Heck, I just like saying the world Butterscotch. It leaves a sweet thought in my mind!
Dusty!
I keep thinking or army and stuff, and I think of my brother.
Desert or Storm.
Bet you can't guess what that's from, huh?
I just read the two syllables thing, so Dusty still fits!
(Determined to win here!)

Chief?
Wimorey....kinda corny, but check it out!
Will
TimTaylorCareyIt's a tiny part of ALL of you!!
I know, you can't get rid of me! My brain is going bananas! How about Nemo? He was a famous military dog from the Vietnam War. Then, of course, there's the movie "Finding Nemo"...melts my heart everytime!
Do you like Kaiser? He, too, was a military dog that served in the Vietnam War.
What about Micro? I think that's perfect for a little dog.
With you being from Texas, what about Roper? Makes me think of rodeos and horses...and cute puppies, of course!

I think you should name it... FORT!
Max
Flip
Gunner

How about Owen (part of Carey's maiden name)?

Good Luck to all!
