Otis has arrived

Rocky and Meagan brought our Christmas surprise to us when they came. The kids were all asleep when they got here but we couldn't wait until morning to give them the dog so we showed them that night. We took the dog and set it on Natties bed and she was so excited. It took Nichole a little while longer to figure out what was going on when the dog started to lick her face. When we put him on Tyler's bed he didn't wake up for a while so I told him that it was his dog and he said "Ha Ha very funny" until he realized that we were telling him the truth. Ella didn't really care she was just to tired to do anything about it. When we put Otis to bed he whined and whined and made this horrible sound that kinda sounded like a mixture between golem (when he says it my precious and yells) and a gremlin. He went on like that for so long that Nate and I ended up sleeping on the couch upstairs. All of the kids have loved having Otis around. They fight over whose turn it is to hold him and he runs away from Ella. He still whines alot when he is put in his Kennel but he is getting a little (a very little) better.
I thought that this picture was so ugly I had to post it.
