He reminds me so much of the dog my neighbors had during my childhood. Thanks for helping me remember that. It means alot.
Awesome photo. I'm totally buying that camera.
Its about 7'o clock where you are, and I just wanted to wish you good luck with the MRI. I'll probably be napping after English class back here on the east coast, but im sure i'll be dreaming of you, john, leta, chuck, and a very happy outcome.

wise beyond his years - and cute!
Jon and Leta seem to spend alot of time on the porch though ... are they watching for stalkers?

Chuck is cute as always -best of wishes for you, Jon, and Lita.

Man, I wish I could take pictures as good as you. You make me very jealous.
And again, lots of good thougths coming your way for the MRI this morning. Give Leta lots of cuddles, she'll do just fine....and so will you and Jon.
Take Care.

someday i will have a dog like chuck. living in an apartment with three other men in a horribly expensive and crowded apartment in boston prents me from having a pet. although we do have roaches. i guess my landlord allows roaches as pets. that bastard.

Great photos, as always. Good luck to all of you with the MRI.
I also wanted to tell you that I was looking at the photo archives and came upon one where you said you had smothered Leta's thigh in barbecue sauce and eaten it--that page now has an ad for barbecue sauce on it. Funny!

Hugs to all of you today. I am hoping for a good outcome with the results of the MRI. You deserver some peace of mind in this postpartum time.
Also, I think you would love a Dyson vacuum almost as much as you love the Nikon D70 which I am getting THANKS to you!
Love the photos of Chuck. I especially LOVE his eyes. They look like they have been edged in black ink.
09.13.04 - 06:37 AM / 15Jill said:
Good luck today. I have a candle lit for all of you. And Chuck is the coolest dog!

Oh, I love Chuck! My dog, Ginger, has that ridge of hair, too! Must be a mutt thing. They are almost the same color, too. I'm still thinking about you guys, and wondering how the MRI thing is going.....
09.13.04 - 06:50 AM / 17kara said:
Best wishes for today's MRI.... I'm sure Leta will prove to be a perfectly healthy baby--from her monthly letters she seems to be developing at a normal rate.

I can't get over how handsome Chuck is!
Thinking & hoping & praying. For the MRI *and* for the tortorous exercises.
Bless you all, Armstrong Four!

He is precious.
I've been reading for awhile, but just thought I'd say hello, and I wish I wasn't allerigic to dogs. It's just no fun trying to take my cat for a walk on the beach. :(
Best wishes to you and Lovely Leta on the MRI and the walky therapy...

i got teary-eyed looking at the picture you took of jon and leta on the porch. wow. praying for you and yours!

Good Luck today! Lovely lovely family, lovely photos, lovely words from your heart!
*sigh* I'm such a fan.
small words of unsolicitated advice: chew tums, lots of Tums, the calcium helps with the stress. My son has had lots of surgeries and the nurse told my husband and I that calcium recuces stress, whether it works or not I have no proof but it gives me something to focus on; distributing the tums.
Breathing deeply and eating extra calcium Tums for you today......
09.13.04 - 07:10 AM / 22Michelle said:
Chuck is so incredibly gorgeous and so...soo..CHUCK! I am dying for your camera and saving my pennies. Watch out on the extra tums advice...might provide lots of calcium but they will constipate the heck out of you too!

You know, I'm a cat person. I've had cats my whole life. Never had a dog. I just want you to know that you're really making me want one.
If I ever get one, I'll have to send you the pictures of my cats freaking out when I bring it home.

Chuck looks like a blond version of my dog, Misty. What a cutie -- and I really like the background, with Jon and Leta. It's like "Where's Waldo," except cuter.

My wife was kind enough to bless me with the D70 not more than a few weeks ago myself. Now if only one could procure the effin ML-L3 remote shutter release.... bygones.
Glad to see the return of Chuck photos. I missed him for a while there.
09.13.04 - 09:39 AM / 27Jo said:
I am assuming that since you cite "former," I can no longer vote for him in the upcoming election? Cause I would. He has great ears. Ears make a man, er, politician, dontcha know ;)
