I’ve heard from several sources that our home has the volume/pandemonium level of homes with a dozen children. We are impressive.
As the dog is barking for no apparent reason, I’m asking myself, “Why didn’t we add this to the milieu sooner?”

OK, so I didn’t buy the digital camera. The one I was planning to purchase got mixed reviews. My second choice is a little bulky. I might need to expand my search.
Saturday, the Bean and I were out and about with Torey and the Peanut. The two Legumes, were walking hand in hand, talking a blue streak. “I can’t believe I left my camera at home.” Torey said. “And I didn’t bring my laptop.” I said, snapping my fingers. She burst out laughing and made me give her a high five. Making Paul or one of my siblings laugh hard is a gold star on my chart.
Jack is a busy boy and a tease. He likes to strike a pose and then dash right before the shot.
It is really hard to take a picture of a black dog with black eyes.
This Friday we will have had him for three weeks. He is starting to grow into those big paws. I just looked out the window and noticed that he is chewing on an empty plastic 4-pack that held some annuals Eden and I planted.
*sighs, as she gets up to go take it away and give him a real chew toy*
We took the puppy to the vet this morning and discovered that we have been feeding him too much food. I don’t know if I misunderstood what the breeder told me or she’s crazy, either way we have a plump puppy. I was so pleased with his girth and attributed it to his build. “But he’s got such big bones!” I took the news with humble dignity.
The vet asked if she could take him around in back and show him off to everyone in the office, apparantly half the staff have Labs, and everyone loves a puppy. There was quite a bit of cooing and if I had a dollar for every time someone said, “He’s a handsome boy!” the visit would have been free.
So Jackie Boy is cutting back on his chow and tonight the entire family is taking him to Puppy Kindergarden. I don’t know why we couldn’t just call it Beginner Training.
Sorry for all the dog posts – it’s a bit consuming and, I hope, more interesting than laundry posts, which we all know I am not above.
