Hanukkah Loot

Yay, two posts in one day! Here are the Things enjoying some of their Hanukkah loot. T2 loves the alligator mittens her grandmother knitted her. "Hey!" she said. "I could have a puppet show with these!"

Maybe T1 could provide the musical accompaniment to the puppet show with her new iPod shuffle. I'm going to be happy not to have her begging in the car to listen to the pop music station she likes.

Of course, Ruthie got gifts, too. And she helped the Things open theirs. She's a very helpful dog.

They look happy, don't they?

On an unrelated note, Ruthie's been limping lately. I took her to the vet this morning, and he says she has arthritis in one of her rear knees. He prescribed some meds that we hope will help. Poor girl.
