NEW BABY AT OUR HOUSE
Just to catch all of your attention everyone! I got a new puppy for Mother's Day/birthday/Christmas/rest of the year gift. I'm not sure what I am more excited about - that Jer caved and let me get a dog or the fact that I actually have a dog. Either way I am very happy about both. She is a Basenji and we named her Britt. We got her from the pound and she had been a stray. It was just like bringing home one of our children - we discussed names, where to sleep, how to discipline. She is so easily trainable and had to either been someones great pet or is just smart. Christian laughs at her all day, she has taken a liking to Jared, Jay and Kate could care less. But as for me, of course, I am in love with my new baby.

FEELING LOST
Well not really - just upset because I realized approx 500 pics got deleted off of my camera card. Not sure how this hapenned. And of course none of the kids did it - just ask them. The kids don't touch my camera and I sure know where the delete button is. So sad that the last 6 months of our lives are missing from pics. Christmas, the girls birthdays, a concert, a practical joke and just daily fun stuff ALL GONE. So frustrating. I guess I will have to back them up more often than every 6 months to a CD. Oh well.
