2 dogs, 3 kids and me

We are dogsitting Magnum right now. He's a nice dog but really hairy and smelly. I try to vacumm as much as possible but he's scared of the vacumm and the more I vacumm, the more he sheds. Since they can't go outside for more than a minute without freezing their bits off, they've taken to wrestling in the house to burn off some energy. The matinee hockey game was interrupted yesterday for a sideshow from the 2 of them. Chloe informed me last night that not only was her barbie, Sarah allergic to Magnum but Riley is allergic too! Only 6 more days....
