I don't know. She looks very sad that the elections are over. Hrm... Either that or she's really sad that Kerry lost.

Chuck's a boy, Kat. :)

Sometimes I wish I could have that "I just couldn't care less" feeling that it looks like Chuck has. Or, maybe he's thinking, "That damn costume was humiliating. I BETTER get more pizza."

Senator Chuckles is just contemplating his 2008 run. Do you think Lassie's available for Secretary of State? Mouse, do you want to be his running mate?

the letter to Leta made me cry.
Chuck is adorable. :)

Sigh... I have to close my office door again, so no one sees me tearing up! Love that letter to the Frog Princess! What a lucky little girl...

Life IS hard when you have to compete with cutie-pie Leta for attention!
awwww...I'll give you a pop-tart over here, Chuck!

Heather, I loved your letter to Leta. We just adopted a seven-month-old and I can relate to so many things that you mentioned. Rather than the thumb, though, he goes for his middle fingers. And it's loud as can be on the monitor!
We, too, plan to teach him about all religions so he can make a decision on his own. I wish our country as a whole would be more open to differences. I cried a couple of tears yesterday. But here we are, stuck again for four more years. Ugh.
Happy nine months, Leta!

I wish you knew what kind of dog Chuck was, because my dog looks just like him and the vet can't tell what breed she is either. When people ask me I just have to tell them 100% stray.
That's a very good shot of Chuck there, and you look so much happier in that last photo of you with Leta. I am glad you are feeling better.

Your letter to Leta is beautiful. She's a very lucky little girl!
Chuck, life could be worse, you could be my dog and have to live with 2 indoor cats, 1 outdoor cat and 3 indoor kids :)

Chuck looks sad. He should be happy. Leta is going to crawl around soon. She'll crawl towards chuck and start hitting him, as infants are prone to treat animals. Then he'll have plenty of attention, plenty.

Yay Chuck! He's so cool. And great newsletter...made me weepy.
11.04.04 - 05:37 AM / 16Amanda said:
Oh, Chuck. Dear, dear Chuck. If only you knew the joy you brought the Internet...
11.04.04 - 05:38 AM / 17kim said:
i think it's been said before: those monthly letters are beautiful and usually make me cry. in a good biological-clock-is-ticking kinda way. thank you, heather.
11.04.04 - 05:40 AM / 18Eddo said:
Yeah, more chuck photos for wallpaper- I had a dream last night that I got a new puppy and in the dream I was so happy I cried. Now it seems ridiculous, but last night I really wanted that puppy... it looked a lot like chuck... I WANT A PUPPY!!!

I had a dream about Chuck last night.
Weird.

Thank you for posting these monthly newsletters each month Heather. I'm very greatful that we get to follow the journey of raising Leta with you. And the bonus Chuck pictures are always great!

I'm never envious; I'm always happy for others' happiness. And then along came Chuck. God forgive me, I covet him. I covet Janna's dream about him . . .
Beautiful letter to Leta. What a treasure she will have some day, with a book of these letters. What a treasure she has today, with so much mama-and-daddy love.

Dooce,
Your entry to Leta this month made me smile. Just think how different this country would be if all mothers sought to teach their children love and compassion above all else.
Hope for the future is in the air.
Cheers,
Africankelli

Chuck rocks.
He is so cool looking; he's a cartoon dog and an outer space dog and a regular dog all kind of rolled into one.
11.04.04 - 05:53 AM / 24Laura said:
He has got to be THE cutest dog in the world.
11.04.04 - 05:58 AM / 25Drew said:
Heather, you are a beautiful woman and you have a beautiful family. May God bless you and your family for all time.

Okay, now that you've satiated our Chuck-based needs, some of us have a few suspicions that you might have more George pics. Cough 'em up, please.

hmmm....teach all religions? does anybody know all the religions. most people are forever stained by the first religion they learn.

Yay for the cuteness that is Chuck! All hail our canine cult leader! (His face totally says, "I should have minions.")
