Our Baby

Thanks to Josh's persistence, we have added a new baby to the family. Let me rewind just a bit. While the girls and I were in Illinois, the cats were left in the charge of the three Fogas men. Under their ever-watchful eyes, one cat disappeared and has yet to return. It was Charlotte who went MIA. As a side note, she WAS our favorite kitty. Fast forward in time. Josh had been borderline obsessing about wanting to get a dog. When he found Milo on the Internet, there was no turning back. We all fell in love with him. Despite the fact that I had to grocery shop, clean house, prepare for school....we loaded up Mag, Brenn, and Josh to drive into the HOOD, in the torrential rain, to go see Milo, who was living at a local animal shelter. Fast forward again, an hour after arriving, we were swimming back to our car with dog in tow. Mind you, we were in the Prius, so Milo and Mag's car seat took up the whole back seat. Brenn sat on the floor the whole way home. I think he is a keeper though, Milo that is, the verdict is still out on Brennan (Just kidding, Brenn). Milo is already crate-trained. We haven't had any accidents, and he likes to play fetch, no attempts at climbing onto the furniture. He is a real lover, too. With the kids gone this weekend, he has been my shadow.
