So it's been a long time, a little over 2 months to be exact.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do this fairly often, as you know, so I'm not going to go into details as to why I haven't been blogging, but...I will fill you in on what's to come!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>The Importance of Life</i> is going to face some pretty great changes. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's going to become more focused, cleaned up and most importantly, kept up with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had started blogging solely for the purpose of getting the chance to write everyday and sort of see what happens.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All I can say is, expect bigger and better things from this blog of mine, because I do and I'm excited to see what comes of it.</div>

But I have found, going to bed a little earlier, making time to watch my favorite shows, and setting nights aside to see the ones I love is really helping! I'm still able to make time to get everything I need to do, done as well as containing a social life in the process.</span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Opie has literally doubled in size since the vet last saw him. I noticed he was growing, his nose is longer, his belly is smaller and he is now taller then the little dogs he likes to play with. When we first brought him to the vet on Feb. 14th, he weighed in at 7 lbs, so little! This time around he weighed in at 13.6 lbs, so not quite 14 lbs but nearly. He has now mastered (aside from a few accidents) going potty outside and we even went as far to teach him "sit" and "lay".</span></div><div align="center" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">He is so smart!</span></div><div align="center" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

The quiet, sleepy, cooperative boy that he introduced us to was a sneak into the life we would not have with Opie.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">The one thing that has stayed consistent is him sleeping through the night. Of all that is definitely a blessing. I don't know what I would do if he wasn't allowing us to sleep through the night.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Yet quiet is far from the truth!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Our little Opie, the one we were unsure knew how to bark, uses his powerful bark to let us know everything! When he wants attention, when he wants to be picked up, when he wants to go outside. It's very confusing trying to differentiate between them all.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">The hardest part is probably trying to get all of his energy out. For a second, I thought maybe we should get another puppy in the next year, now I'm starting to think that is NOT a good idea. Thanks to our friends who own animals themselves, and allow us to show up at their homes for a play date at a moments notice, I don't know what I would do without them.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Not only do we get a break from trying to keep him busy, he has another dog(s) to play with and we usually end up leaving with him asleep on our laps for the ride home.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAUKwLslYJsCdZsmPLBJesZ9KKQ5Q7eNc-kgoDhnFSZ11ILBxtzBWw7ENzfOCq_e8zFmvvYS5cYuZjLU5jePIqX4YLxC1Mbrkh-IVT3_UNfL1qwuVbsgL_KhfSuLzbkDbknQ63stVOvqA/s1600/Opie1.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" lda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAUKwLslYJsCdZsmPLBJesZ9KKQ5Q7eNc-kgoDhnFSZ11ILBxtzBWw7ENzfOCq_e8zFmvvYS5cYuZjLU5jePIqX4YLxC1Mbrkh-IVT3_UNfL1qwuVbsgL_KhfSuLzbkDbknQ63stVOvqA/s400/Opie1.bmp" width="400" /></a><br />
