The new baby....





Well as it turns out, about a month before Foster had to go, my DH talked me into a new puppy. We knew Foster was not doing so well and Foster had always been our dog, not the kids, we had him before kids and he never really was happy about the fact that they came and took over his territory and took our time away from him! So we decided to get a puppy, that would be the family dog and would grow up with the kids. My DH had always wanted a Siberian Husky, and I like bigger dogs and we both wanted one that was good with kids. So we found a husky and named her Loki. The name was also my DH's idea, it means "Norse God of Mischief." Wow, is she appropriately named! She's about 4 months old now and doing very well with training, but she's still doing that puppy nipping and rough play, which the kids don't appreciate, but they love her and are having fun playing and getting used to a doggie that will play and isn't grumpy and hurting. She's very soft and cuddly, so the girls really like that, me too! Everyone we know that have huskies or have had them, say that they are great dogs, but very stubborn! Even the vet told us that. So... it's like having another two-year old around! This is Loki at 8 weeks and today!
