We are so excited! We are going to go and meet a Saint Bernard on Saturday and hopefully bring her home with us! :)
We found her on Craigslist and I talked to the current owner and she just sounds so sweet! We can't wait to meet her! Here is a link to her.

Please pray that everything works out. :)
Thanks!

I'm hoping that it went well?  ;)  Do you have a new addition to your family?  ;D

Hi Marie!

I am so sorry I didn't update sooner. We met her and she was really sweet. The only problem was that she was really wild and out of control. The owner, a man, had a hard time containing her on a leash. I know that with training, she would be wonderful and I have no problem doing that, but my husband wasn't comfortable with us bringing her home because she was already at 130 pounds and we have tiny kids in the house and I am pregnant, so he was worried that while I was training her, there would be an accident. He said that he just wasn't comfortable. She was a sweetie, though. :(  So, we are continuing to look.

I'm sorry that it didn't work out, but I too can see your hubby's point.  :(  It takes a fair amount of time & energy to train a 130# playful, bouncy dog and both are often in short supply when you have tiny kids and a new baby on the way.  I'm not sure that I could've done it when mine were really little and I was expecting, either.  :-\  Congratulation s, by the way!  When are you due?   ;D

How wonderful to be expecting such happy news on "tax day".   ;)  ;D   I hope that you find the perfect furry addition to your family soon, too.  Please keep us posted on your search.
