Archie

We found out we were becoming parents to our little "runt" last month. Walter, Felix and I had talked about the name of our next dog months before and settled on Archibald after the Marine, Archibald Henderson. We loved that we would shorten it to Archie!..and the way Felix says Archie is priceless! 
Archie's first mom posted pictures constantly to keep all the new owners up to date on how the sweet babes were doing. We melted every time we saw a new one and talked about how we couldn't wait to snuggle our new little boy. Felix painted pictures of he and Archie and wrote stories about him. A couple weeks back we decided to buy a blanket and little stuffed bunny to send to our sweet boy. Felix slept with the blanket for two nights before we sent it, he wrote a card and was so excited the morning we mailed it off.  
We originally thought we weren't going to get him until Mother's Day weekend, but on Thursday the pups were cleared to go to their new homes. We told Felix daddy had to work all day on Saturday. It seemed as anyother day for Felix, but the thought of surprising him with Archie, was so exciting. 
Felix opened the door and teared up seeing Archie in Walter's arms. I love animals, Walter loves animals and a lots of children love animals, but I have never met a child that loves animals as much as my four year old. He eats, sleeps and breaths all living creatures. 
Welcome Home Archibald Garcia! We have been waiting for the perfect addition  and I think we hit the jackpot with you! You are one beautiful Vizsla and I cannot wait to watch you grow into best buddies with your older brothers! 

Before his eyes opened.
