Welcome Cousin Ozzie

Our family grew by four paws this week as Aunt Lori and Uncle Sam welcomed Ozzie into their lives. Ozzie is a coton de tulear and was born on March 28, just one day before Ari and Alex. Here is a picture of all of Nana and Poppy Jack's children and grandchildren, including the newest addition:

The kids love their new cousin and can't wait to spend more time with him!

In other news this week, Alex has been showing signs of teething: drooling, runny nose, chewing on his hand, and general grumpiness. There's nothing to see yet, but something tells us we may see his first tooth in the near future. Ari and Alex are now sitting by themselves for extended periods of time-- they even sat through a 45-minute music class without much assistance from Mommy. This week, they added prunes (yum!) to their menu. They are also talking up a storm.

Ari and Alex are getting excited for visits from their Chilean aunt and uncle and their maternal great-grandmother ("GG") this week, and they're looking forward to celebrating their first Halloween in a few weeks!
