Our newest addition… Welcome, Jovie Prichett! We have had a heck of a few weeks around here – our house was burglarized and I still haven’t replaced my desktop so I am getting increasingly far behind on work – ugh. The good news is they caught the guys, they are in jail, and we got back all the small stuff. The bad news is the door is still boarded up in the back and the kids were feeling kind of sad – but here is a little beam of sunshine right when we needed it! The name Jovie came from the movie “Elf” – the family’s favorite Christmas movie, Jovie is his girlfriend.
Jovie is 4 months old, we adopted her yesterday from a very nice breeder in Richmond, Virginia. So far, she loves chasing the kids in the backyard, most of these photos were taken while she was running around with Zach and Alex yesterday. We had old dogs for so long I forgot how great our yard is for puppies! She loves being outside, when the kids went to school she played with the swings for an hour, chewing and swinging them back and forth – she also loves the tee ball bats – what a sport! She is a lot more timid indoors, and doesn’t do stairs yet, so basically, when we carry her in, she stays put in that exact spot until carried somewhere else – my friend Rebecca said I should enjoy the stillness now, because she will come out of her shell soon and I will long for not having to chase her around the house!
