Gurm,
The asteroid belt wouldn't contribute because it's mass is evenly distributed around its orbit, and it is much farther from the sun than the earth is so it could almost be considered to orbit the earth as well as the sun.
However Charon (sp?) the "moon" of Puto could be considered a 10th planet.....
So, there you go, ten planets.

PS Planet "Asteroid" may never have completely formed.
