I don't have any personal experience, here, but my brother and his wife got a dog 3 years before baby. But the dog got totally ignored when baby showed up. I don't think I'd do them at the same time -- both baby and *puppy* need tons of care. So get one of them potty trained before the other one shows up in the house!
I'm surprised the adoption fees were so high. The organization I work with charges $175 now. It was $125 when I got my dog, and the dog had already been vetted/all shots/spayed. There've got to be some places out there...
Have fun!
