Tim and I kept a big secret from Zach for one of his Christmas presents this year. As you may remember we lost our baby
Zoe in August after Zach's birthday, well the vet told us that we would need to wait for at least 3 months before we bring a new puppy home because of what she thought she had. So we did as we were told and one night after Zach went to bed as I was pinning a beagle picture to my Pinterest board I looked over at Tim and said could we get one of these for Christmas? He looked at me and said I will call the lady tomorrow. He called the same lady that we had bought Zoe from and she said she had a set of puppies that were ready then but we wanted to wait to give him a puppy for Christmas so I called her back and talked to her about maybe holding her until then and she said she would but that she had another set of puppies that would be ready about a week before so we decided that might be better so she emailed us a bunch of pictures of all of the litters she had. We looked through them all and looked at each other and said maroon.. (She takes pictures of all of them behind different backgrounds)
So we emailed her and let her know that we wanted Zoey's tri color that was in the maroon background. I thought it was only fitting that we got her from a Zoey. We decided to pick her up on Sunday before Christmas. It's funny when we decided she was our baby I had saved this picture to my phone and one day Zach looked in my phone and goes.. Ahhh I want her.. and I told him that I was sorry but she was someone else's that they wanted me to see her. and he said but I want a new puppy.. and I told him so did I but we couldn't have her... he goes.. ok.. daddy said we can get one in the Spring.. and I said that's right we will have to wait until then. Then the day before we go and get her Tim tells Zach that he can open one present the next day.. well Zach was so excited about that and so the next morning we get up and tell him to get dressed and we all get dressed and Tim finds him looking under the tree picking out which gift he was going to get to open.. Tim told him that his present wasn't under the tree.. He wasn't sure what to think about that but he went with it. So we get in the truck and travel to Dimebox, Texas a little north of Giddings. When we get there Tim tells the son that we were there to pick up a puppy but I made sure Zach didn't get out at the same time so he didn't here anything. So we go back to where they keep the puppies and he takes us to the cage where our baby was and pulls her out and gives her to Zach and he looks at us and Tim says she's yours.. this is your present. I tell you he was in shock.. it was so cute! We knew he would be excited and he didn't disappoint.
As you can see she loved him too.. He made sure to put her in his lap and she feel fast asleep.
On the way home we talked about names we talked about a few names and ended up going with.. Macy. I wanted to spell it Macie but Zach wanted to spell it with a y.
We got her home and she seemed to fit in right away.
We are very excited to have her as part of our family. She is super sweet and loveable.
