12:25 am

re 8 is to talk again

12:26 am

Lickety - I love your clues. Please explain how you do them. Are you the creator of the puzzle? Is there a little Babble history/explanation I can access? Want to know how this is made...

12:27 am

mymuse... past tense, or is there another one?

12:27 am

thanks muse, got it!

re 8/45 different, I think

ankh, re8 = said again

hey, I'm in this grid again today!

12:29 am

Ornith, that's what stumped me. I'll keep trying.

12:30 am

think name of our country

ankh - region in which you live (they make up the USA)

12:30 am

Ah! The monkey likes Tea! Thank you, Tea!

yw

12:32 am

kkiln, you should be out on the town!

all the s's and r's are making this one not so bad!

12:34 am

the d's too

12:34 am

I have these 8's : he 8/50 qu 8/55 re 8/45 re 8/45 th 8/45. Can anyone add to the list?

12:35 am

Hey guys - just to ask again (I'm new)...is there a little behind the scenes page about Babble? I'd love to learn how it gets made, Lickety's role etc...thanks!

12:35 am

no idea, Gadget, check the "help" section? It might have some info. Lickety is "just" a really great guy who wrote an algorithm for finding words using the Enable dictionary.

12:36 am

hi folks

12:36 am

not me ARB! I only have the said-again re8, clue for the other?

12:36 am

Lickety did not create Babble, Dr_God did. two separate people.

hi, col

12:36 am

Gadget, down at the bottom of the page is a list of links go to Angelsong's babble pages

12:36 am

hi Colhad! how's the fishing today?

roadster, that is

12:37 am

Thanks Stidmama

12:37 am

wow phenakis! good for you!

12:37 am

I got all the Q words

go phenakis!

12:38 am

re + one of the senses past tense

12:38 am

Gadget, the Enable dictionary is weird, has many foreign words, persian currency, e.g., but not a word like taser.

12:38 am

go Colhad go!

12:39 am

also often has (word), (word)er, re(word), but not re(word)er. *glares at dictionary*

12:40 am

thanks muse, btw

12:40 am

can't figure out the ipod clue for the he 8 -- any other clues for it?

very irritating

12:40 am

when you listen to music nan and no one else hears it

12:41 am

nan, matched groups of things that sit on your neck?

12:41 am

compound word nan

12:41 am

thank you

12:42 am

thought it was something specific to ipod

12:42 am

Nan, I can't get the back half of it, can you clue just that part?

12:42 am

ol7, casual word for an aged person

thanks for asking ankh

12:43 am

ankh, the second half?

12:43 am

Sorry guys, got disconnected and it took a while to reload this big grid. I was trying to be subtle with the ipod clue!

12:43 am

Yes, Thanks, Orinth, glad of the company, Tea, I was feeling lonely and dense!

there's another 8 orinth, with the plural

12:43 am

matched groups, ankh and tea

12:43 am

wondered where you had gone, thought maybe you fell into the REs!

12:43 am

where is the enable dictionary?

12:43 am

Too subtle, ARB, we're stuck on the second half of the compound word.

12:43 am

OH!

oy!

12:44 am

thanks tea, where's that fish? :P

right next to the ipod thingy

12:44 am

in gin rummy you make runs and ****

12:44 am

oh ew, now my he7 smells like fish! :P

12:45 am

phantom: solid

that makes 6 8's for me

12:45 am

Good clue, Nan.

12:45 am

12:46 am

I'm at 150

12:46 am

*felt bad the first time she heard Steve Irwin's voice unexpectedly, after.*

12:46 am

129

12:46 am

it's slow for me

121, and it was slow earlier, but seems to have straightened itself out for me

sorry, ankh

12:47 am

12:47 am

196

12:47 am

12:50 am

12:52 am

Muse, heh heh, I was flunking! But all better now.

12:52 am

When you go to school your teacher will give you te*** to see if you learned the material. Then just add re on the front and add different endings.

12:53 am

Mooch, thank you!

12:53 am

anyone found the last 8, then?

I love all the different ways that we clue!

12:53 am

12:55 am

12:55 am

Ol8?

12:55 am

*thinking about the 9*

it's going off again!

12:55 am

ol8 - plural of a casual word for aged people

12:56 am

Ornith, you saved me from making Mother Nature jokes about butter. (substitute, compound w/sense word)

12:56 am

is the RO 9 something to do with a flower?

12:57 am

12:57 am

12:57 am

Thanks, Orn.

I'm missing three 8s - probably the Rs. I have to say again...

kthdsn ... ro 8 flower + consumed

7:13 am

ty pur, I'm sure I put that in already lol

That's only a 7, Letter!

7:13 am

Is that not ro7?

7:14 am

ok maybe I confused the clues from before, there is an ro8

7:15 am

ro7.28 & 8.40 - can't get definition but get ro5.10 first and extend. ro + original *** + h**e in the ground.

7:15 am

I think i am thick headed today but i dont see checked again and ate again

One 8 left. Have an RO9, and RO7 and 6...but no RO8

ro 8 .... ro 5/10 + circle stick and plural letter

7:16 am

ro8/40....ro + transgression + aged minus the 'd' and hello !!

7:16 am

Hi Karys - snap!

7:16 am

Begin with te4/4 - to try out. Put re in front of it for re6 then past tense it.

Wurdy, if I take an exam, I take a t***

rosinolhi?!

7:16 am

103 and run out of a steam. Back later

7:17 am

103 left, that is

7:18 am

58 to go and trying to get 2 more before I have some lunch

I'm thinking what matty thought on that ro8. Any clarification possible?

7:18 am

thanks i am thick headed today, got them now though thanks again

I'm still stuck on the 8...

7:19 am

Start with ro5/10 - add most of opposite of young. That gives ro7, then plural it.

7:19 am

Esprit - drop the hi from what Matty said and then add s

change matty's last letter to the plura;

7:20 am

thanks for those wonderful clues - have them all now and on 223 i am going to do some work - be back later for the 130 left!

7:21 am

bye sandr

OK, I got it but #1 That's a WORD? and #2 where does the "hi" come in?

7:21 am

I'm running out of steam, I fail to believe there are 152 words left in this stupid grid

and thanks btw

7:22 am

I have a55 left kth and I agree with you

7:22 am

There are - Dr_God never lies to us.

7:22 am

#2 Matty put hi on the end of it when she spelt it out - ?! Esprit

7:23 am

oops 155

7:24 am

does anyone have the i's?

"ro8/40....ro + transgression + aged minus the 'd' and hello !!" - the Hi came from Hello! :D

7:25 am

I have most of the i words.

7:25 am

it's a brand of ski's too.

7:25 am

I have only 2 related - io6 & 7

7:25 am

I have none of the i words

7:25 am

I have only found 2 i's so far

7:25 am

I have them all now.....

7:26 am

are they all in?

7:27 am

No - they're much more exciting. Some io words and an is word.

7:27 am

3 are IO (at least)

7:28 am

io6/21 - add what could be a fruit, or a night out with a special person, then develop it for io7 x 2.

7:28 am

oh joy, I hate vowel words, never mind double vowel ones!

7:28 am

is7/32 - is plus a vowel, then a four letter word which can mean a metal or a means of taking a dog for a walk.

7:29 am

TY Haz for is...

There are two in words as well, matty.

7:33 am

I'm a web designer/blogger/internet addict, I get out of bed, check my email and don't leave the computer until bedtime

7:35 am

7:35 am

wow wurdy that is old school, we have 2 laptops at home, I think I would die without them

my kids arent addicts i swear. lol i would never get my 16 year old hooked on this AHAHAHAH he beats me all the time

7:36 am

wurdy - I know so little about computers that I don't know if a commodore is old or not! If it works, you're flying.

7:36 am

kidding about the commodore - but barely

7:36 am

It's ok janette... If I do this at home there's usually 2 boys and sometimes a husband over my shoulder.... and if I dare leave the keyboard, they're there

7:36 am

I think i might sell a kid (my oldest teenager) for a laptop

7:37 am

my little ones are always yelling out words for me

7:37 am

good day/ big grid everyone

7:37 am

lol wurdy, you're not allowed to list people on ebay

7:37 am

I think it is a good teaching tool

LOL kc i thought i was the only one. my son is on quiz bowl he is a walking brain.

7:38 am

Good day abe - it is a big grid, but great fun.

7:38 am

kth - can you imagine the ad -"13 yearl old boy with terrible attitude and nonexistant work ethic for sale. Fould mouth and body odor are a plesnt bonus"

7:38 am

Hi Haz- I must admit I am enjoying it, thus far

7:38 am

rofl

7:39 am

Hmmm... no, cause the same add with the exception of "bathes and uses plenty of cologne" will be in my add above it

7:39 am

adore

7:39 am

lolol

7:39 am

OOPS

7:39 am

ty frances

7:40 am

You'll not attract many bids that way! You need to speak to real estate agents about how to sell. 'Has potential' should be in there somewhere.

7:40 am

thanks Frances :)

7:40 am

You're very welcome

7:40 am

ahhh you are correct haz - how about this

7:41 am

13 year old boy, very flexible esp. thumbs, vocabulary quite extensive

7:41 am

Perfect - I'd buy him.

7:41 am

colorful vocab that is better

7:41 am

1 dollar

7:41 am

plus shipping and handling

7:42 am

Sale or return?

7:42 am

do you ship to the UK?

7:42 am

do you use paypal definate sale and all sales final

7:42 am

will ship anywhere

7:42 am

Ah, with that low price you'll get people thinking that there is a catch somewhere. You need to put it up to avoid suspicion.

7:43 am

hmmmm ok a tenner

7:43 am

and how will he be packaged, I'd hate for him to be damaged in transit???

7:43 am

has anyone clued the 9s?

7:43 am

And, before I land myself with a teen boy with attitude, I must get some lunch. See you later!

7:43 am

a couple of times grace

7:43 am

lol kth

7:43 am

7:50 am

Good morning Babblers. 356 words--no wonder, look at all of those common letters, pushing the F, H and QU aside.

7:53 am

what breed is it grace, I used to keep hamsters, we still have a robo

7:53 am

I wish I could type without looking at the keys. But I dropped that course when I was failing it in high school.

7:53 am

It looks like a dwarf or a baby.

7:53 am

7:56 am

our robo is a female but my two year old daughter named her Mr Moo

7:57 am

hi Une, are you on your own two feet now, I hope

7:57 am

I am just starting this grid so I am not ready to clue. I am in search and discovery mode.

7:58 am

yes, thanks, Annie--graduated from cast to boot to brace!

7:58 am

I love your flowers for Leslie Ann

7:58 am

:-D wonder when she'll arrive at her shower

8:00 am

I'm already stuck. I can't find the al 4,7. I can't et that many points. I have all of the other al 4,4

8:01 am

merk think beer + a big scoring letter

8:02 am

I'm blind here. I start with the a in the top row, right? I can't figure out how to get to the high scorers in four letters.

8:03 am

make a u-turn merk

8:03 am

Oh, I didn't see the corner letter, duh! Thanks.

8:03 am

merk, first letter of the hebrew alphabet or beer and turn left

8:03 am

yw :-)

8:06 am

I think I need to drink my morning coffee before I start this. And the long grids always intimidate me for some reason. I can zip through the short ones in no time. Anyone else have that problem?

8:06 am

can someone please explain to me why i decided to wear a skirt today?? *shivers*

8:06 am

when the grid is this long I dont print out the list, can anyone tell me how to drag the list near the grid. Yes Merk, I have that problem also

8:07 am

Feeling girlie?

8:07 am

Yes, merk, I look at the big grids and assume I won't finish, unless it is the weekend and i have more time, and my coffee is READY---------> I need coffee now!

8:07 am

evanadine- have any extra leg warmers around? you need them today!

8:08 am

just made fresh coffee, who wants some, going to get coffeeeeee

8:08 am

annie try tiling the windows, right click the start bar and choose tile

8:08 am

Merk- big grids are a bit intimidated, esp. before caffeine consumption

8:08 am

*intimidating

8:08 am

i need pants!

8:08 am

kth, will try that but first coffee, thanks!!!!

8:09 am

*sending leg warmers to evan*

8:09 am

For goodness sake, eva, get some clothes on.

8:10 am

evan I was a bit worried/scared then, pants over here means underwear, took a while to sink in that you meant trousers

8:10 am

see, i was thinking like this: im gonna see the BF later, and i havent worn a skirt in a really long time, so maybe ill wear a skirt for him today... and now my comfort is paying the price!

8:10 am

hah, yes, i do forget that difference in interpretation there kth ;)

8:11 am

BF?

8:11 am

kthdsn- that's good to know! lol

8:12 am

Kate, one of the radio stations here has "No Underwear Wednesdays"--"going commando" is another name.

8:13 am

wow scrabbler, really? I think us brits must be a little more prudish

8:14 am

We've got standards. And cold winds.....

8:15 am

It is a raunchy radio station. Most of us have mothers that told us as kids, "Make sure you where clean, nice underwear in case you are in an accident and go to the hospital." I still think like that.

8:15 am

heh, my brother listens to a station that tries to get people to participate in Whip 'em Out Wednesdays...

8:15 am

lol surely if you've been taken to hospital the state of your underwear is the least of your troubles

8:17 am

It's a Pollyanna thing. You can be lying on the troller, in agony, thinking 'Let's be glad my underwear was fresh on this morning.'

if you are in an accident and go to hospital, your underwear is pretty much cut off you!! wear your worst!

8:18 am

Like the Boy Scouts say, Be prepared.

8:18 am

Hi MrP

8:18 am

Good evening, mrpresident!

Hi abe and haz!

hello everyone!

8:19 am

Hi Haz and mrpresident

8:19 am

One of my friends was on a trip, flying, and did not wear a bra (she really never needs to anyway) and got sick at the airport, went to the hospital, and was mortified that the staff saw her without a bra on. But she is a Pollyanna. Actually our name for her is Prudence.

Hi annie!

8:20 am

Hi mrp.

8:20 am

Good grief, I've just noticed the time. I have to go for a hairdresser's appointment. See you all later.

10:45 am

debating going to the list now, but going through the list is sucha pain with these big grids...

10:45 am

10:46 am

I was gonna ask for help for the es6/18, and then decided not to, but forgot to move the cursor, so i might as well ask for help now. Sigh. Anyone got the first es6/18?

10:57 am

es6/18 - a British petrol company with the opposite of out tacked on the end.

10:57 am

essoin

10:57 am

oops

10:57 am

wrong place

10:57 am

it's also like the bunny/eggs holiday minus the a and pluralized

10:57 am

ty Haz - one of those words I swear I tried this morning.

10:58 am

You're welcome Dachef.

10:59 am

I suppose if one has a country es6, one can be said to be es7...

11:00 am

You would need to be lo6/24 to have one of those!

11:02 am

I see what sprite meant when she said past tense everything...

11:03 am

I didn't catch that clue, Haz. I do have all of the a thru e words finished now though. I thought I could look ahead at your lo clue, but I'm lo**.

11:04 am

lo6/24 - past tense of lo4/5 - to stow stuff on board. The term lo6/24 is used here to indicate that someone is very rich

11:05 am

I see. I was looking for something like lorded.

11:05 am

No, nothing quite so noble.

11:06 am

I've got them now, thanks. I'll go back to mu f words.

11:07 am

Zoot alors! alors doesn't work ..

Okay, I"m back, did I miss anything?

11:07 am

thought it was zut

11:07 am

I believe its spelled "zut".

11:07 am

You thought right.

11:08 am

Je ne parle le Francais tres bien ..

11:08 am

LOL, obviously

11:08 am

neither does Delors, as in the fmous Sun headline...Up Yours Delors... neither does Delon, as in once famous French actor...

11:08 am

You've missed out your 'pas'

thats okay, we love you anyway Torg

11:09 am

It sounds like zoot . .

11:09 am

He didnt miss it out, he just passed on it.

11:09 am

Very good, Dachef!

11:09 am

not if it's pronounced corectly, it doesn't...

11:10 am

there is the zoot suit

11:10 am

loved that movie with Edward James Olmos

11:11 am

My French teacher once taught us that the easiest way to pronounce the u in zut etc is to purse your lips as if about to whistle, but say e instead. It works!

11:11 am

hi evryone. I've been lurking. The grid is pretty good today.

11:11 am

hi Angelsong

11:11 am

hi angelsong

11:12 am

anyone have a clue for the sh6?

11:12 am

A big meaty rump roast of a grid . .

11:12 am

<listen to the collective sound of a load of people pausing typing to whistle an "e" sound with pursed lips.

11:12 am

It conjures up a wonderful picture!

11:14 am

the sh6 has another consonant after the sh... and means a village in Yiddish

mmm, my yiddish is a bit rusty

11:16 am

And it has just one vowel in the middle of the word.

11:16 am

got it!

11:16 am

141 left...have to go make tea for the family....bbl

11:16 am

what a word.

11:17 am

I think something similar was in the grid recently. sh plus an infamous Vietnam offensive, then another consonant.

11:17 am

...If I were a rich man, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum...

A little help with that one . I dont speak Yiddish

11:18 am

Well, I got thru the he rather unscathed, but the final ones were a tad bit sticky.

11:18 am

if fizer were a rich man, i'd rob him..ha ha ha ha

11:18 am

Clued below, lady.

11:18 am

How do you pronounce it?

the clue didnt help much Haz

11:18 am

11:18 am

Hur hur!

11:18 am

Thank you!

11:19 am

lol dachef. thanks nut - fortunately i'm neither....

11:19 am

Heya fiz!

11:19 am

Try sh plus three letters of the French word for head, then a consonant.

11:19 am

fortune - ately

11:20 am

tor it's said just like it looks. Emphasis on the first syllable, 2nd is a little clipped.

ok... Done with the d words... now off to work.. see you all later!

11:20 am

*sides splitting with laughter at nut*

good lord, I monkey'd damn near everything - didnt try that combo

11:21 am

4:50 pm

oh - thought it was an "is" clue! My mistake - not yours - your clues were brilliant!

4:50 pm

How about the LAST io7?

4:50 pm

4:51 pm

4:54 pm

Don't see it muse. I see your io clue but not the lo.

4:54 pm

Thanks wolvie -- swear I tried that, but it was probably the e I did that with

4:54 pm

lo - a term for hate, mkl - then plural is the 7

4:54 pm

yw

4:55 pm

okay - I am taking a break - bbl

she spent alot of time showing me the careful stitching & other details - she was very upset at these people for getting rids of something made with so much love

4:57 pm

oh, helen, that's such a story, sort of of longing or loss or something.

4:57 pm

I dunno, nut -- because of the fantasy of it all?

4:57 pm

caitlyn - sh6/21 - a yiddish village. sh plus the start of a popular English tea.

4:59 pm

Hey everyone! Hey Lara - are you playing?

10:31 pm

I like olives stuffed with anchovies as found in Spain

10:31 pm

10:31 pm

10:32 pm

Ooh, indeed!

10:32 pm

LA, you wouldn't want the ribbons and tin cans after the 6th

10:33 pm

10:34 pm

Hi Jill, I loved seeing all the little smart cars when we were visiting you this summer!

10:34 pm

10:35 pm

:-) do you have help? is anyone taking pictures for your memory book? (can you tell I am so excited and happy for you?)

10:35 pm

Braid the raven hair — Weave the supple tress — Deck the maiden fair In her loveliness — Paint the pretty face — Dye the coral lip — Emphasize the grace Of her ladyship! Art and nature, thus allied, Go to make a pretty bride. Art and nature, thus allied, Go to make a pretty bride.

10:35 pm

10:36 pm

what a lovely verse, douglas! Who wrote it?

10:36 pm

thanks douglas! stid, we have a highly recommended photographer

10:36 pm

It's the opening of the second act of The Mikado, by Gilbert and Sullivan.

10:36 pm

I mean tonight, Leslie Ann -- who's capturing the creative and lovely LeslieAnn doing all this work for her "day"?

10:37 pm

Well, I thought I knew the Mikado, having seen it so many times, but I guess I was too rivetted on other parts.

10:38 pm

douglas always finds real gems.

10:38 pm

PurloinedLetter and I got into a ****** argument about doing play-by-play...

10:38 pm

"Braid the Raven Hair" is one of my favorite choruses. It really captures the spirit of the girls getting ready.

10:38 pm

stid was clued in, of course

10:39 pm

well, I was off at a school band concert so am dying to know what happened in the game while I was gone!

10:39 pm

game tied again. This is a close one, awright!

10:39 pm

Game tied again...Tigers decided not to lay down and die...

10:39 pm

Stid was only clued in because Tom was in the Mikado twice (and stidmatt once)!

10:39 pm

GO TIGERS!!!! (woot cards...)

10:39 pm

you mean LIE down

10:39 pm

hmmm... well, with all these DIY projects I don't know if i'll EVER want to see them again ;)

10:40 pm

stidgrant is in the background reciting the "Dead Parrot" sketch from Monty Python... *sigh*

10:40 pm

Yes, that too...

10:40 pm

What's in your centerpieces, LA?

10:40 pm

love the dead parrot

10:40 pm

stid, i think that's my favorite monty python sketch!

10:41 pm

It is a really great one -- but I am also partial to the cheese shop that is very clean!

10:41 pm

I seem to recall that pine was in a recent grid, as in pining for the fjords

10:42 pm

Rather like the I'm a lumberjack and I'm ok...

10:42 pm

LeslieAnn, you will be so happy you did them. And everyone will say (and think -- and be right) how clever and talented you are!

10:42 pm

they are fishbowls with prairie grass wrapped around the inside, fake leaves and votive candles (the decorations have a very fall-y feel)

10:42 pm

yes, day before yesterday, I believe Douglas!

10:42 pm

douglas, a weird spelling of fjords was in the grid a couple weeks ago, that was my clue.

10:42 pm

ol 7?

10:42 pm

**** we forget...

10:42 pm

natasha, those that are not young, not young + road**** (open car)

10:43 pm

10:43 pm

On Wednesdays I go shopping and have buttered scones for tea! (actually, that IS my shopping day, come to think on it!)

10:43 pm

Jill, how was the concert the other night?

10:43 pm

10:44 pm

Now stidgrant is singing the dolphin

10:45 pm

10:45 pm

10:48 pm

es6/18, es + dirt, but change last letter to another consonant

10:48 pm

10:53 pm

Oh, sorry - it's a bit of a blur now

10:53 pm

lol!

10:54 pm

maybe your smart car is moving too fast, Jill? The brake is the pedal in the middle. Take your foot off the gas, and GENTLY depress the brake...

10:54 pm

Is it just me, or has the speed of the pitches increased over the years?

10:54 pm

I think they're moving faster douglas... like the child's motor mouth. brb again...

10:55 pm

Cardinal gets to first on a third strike getting past Pudge Rodruiguez

10:57 pm

all right folks, i'd love to stay on all night, but i've got a few more projects to finish. love and kisses to all and see you all when i'm a married lady!

10:57 pm

Through hard work and dedication, the Tigers found a way to foul this up...not turning the double play, letting the guy get to first after striking out...etc.

10:57 pm

I hope not, Jill! otherwise I would help nut keelhaul you! *stern look* but since I know you are smarter than that... *offers chocolate cupcake and ice cream*

10:57 pm

NM found it

11:14 pm

Now Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him. "You also were with Jesus of Galilee," she said. But he denied it before them all. "I don't know what you're talking about," he said. Then he went out to the gateway, where another girl saw him and said to the people there, "This fellow was with Jesus of Nazareth." He denied it again, with an ****: "I don't know the man!" After a little while, those standing there went up to Peter and said, "Surely you are one of them, for your accent gives you away." Then he began to call down curses on himself and he swore to them, "I don't know the man!" Immediately a rooster crowed. Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken: "Before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times." And he went outside and wept bitterly.

11:41 pm

Question: The word "teste" is is in the Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary and found on Dictionary.com. It comes up as "not found in the dictionary." Why wouldn't it be in the Enable Dictionary. Doesn't Enable compile all of those?

11:41 pm

I'm quite thankful for the Babble community, where I can be quite the quoter

11:42 pm

hi again! my browser froze up, had to restart.

11:42 pm

You're under the misconception that the Enable dictionary makes sense, luvmypom...

11:42 pm

hey guys :)

11:42 pm

Ahhh... silly me!! :)

11:42 pm

i dont think im going to do much in 18 minutes... what a bummer

11:42 pm

luvmypom, according to another site that uses enable, it is not an unabridged dictionary.

11:43 pm

hi jazi

11:43 pm

..damn being at school :(

11:43 pm

You could chill and wait for the flip jazi, when we are all equal again...

11:43 pm

Thanks Doug & FranMag. I guess we are just at the mercy of Enable then aren't we. *sigh*

Meaningless request for small fixed amount of money each time st4/4 appeared in a crossword puzzle clued as "editing mark" or something like...

They are the best. Sophie will be 2 in February, and Sydney was 1 in June. We call them "the girls" and they keep us laughing all the time. They are definitely "mama's girls" but keep everyone in line. I'm sorry to hear of your loss. After 14 years it's like losing a child, isn't it.

I sort of gave a word away, didn't I...oops

Yes, the one on the left is Sophie. She has more of a fox face. The younger one has the teddy bear face. She was a show puppy, but when her adult teeth came in her bite was off so they retired her. Thanks FranMag. :)

they are too cute - how much do they weigh?

11:55 pm

greetings, folks!

11:56 pm

Sophie weighs 6 libs. and Sydney is only 4. People always comment on how little they are, but we are used to them so they don't seem small to us.

ginger is 6.2 lbs - my other gizmo (not named by me, but it fit her well) was 4.5 - so, this one i sometimes call 'ginger-moose' cause she seems so large to me, esp. her chest -just seems huge
