Well, my blogspot blog did something really weird last nite and jumped the gun on my big news and posted a pic all on its own. I didn't upload it to the blog!!! I don't know how it happened.  So, beware, all ya bloggers. That said I wanted to properly introduce a new member of our family. Orio! Yes, that's how one of our children spelled it in a hurry on the new tiny bowl! The child was a bit taken back when a few giggles arose but then assured us that was the way she intended to spell it. I have 3 shes so I won't disguise which she. But we love the name. It is totally different like the rest of our kids's names! Yeah!  Spelling sometimes does come in handy, especially when not many oreos are ever present in this house (except when Newman's own mint ones are on sale at Kroger).

So, since it's really very late and I need to close for now I wanted to make up for my blogger slip the other day and let you properly see the latest news.  More on our sweet, playfull, poopy baby later!

Blessings, most of the dog pics were taken by the children with a point and shoot camera, not bad, huh? Wait till you see their nature pics we took yesterday at the Arboretum.  That is, one week is all you have to wait till I edit 400 something pics to choose just 12 to enter into a contest. I have to take school off this week in order to get this accomplished or count editing pics with 4 kids behind my back exclaiming: "I took this one! Isn't it good, mom. Yes, honey, awesome. to hear another one say: No, it was me who took it, not you!" SOrry if my dialog is not properly punctuated. Got to get in bed! Enjoy!  Oh, yeah, and brace yourself for more pics. Not the fainthearted this blog is.
