No- not a baby! We are holding out on that for right now! But we did add another boy to the family. Rudy traveled home with us from AZ. He was my mom's beagle mix dog. She rescued him from a shelter about 6 years ago; they guess he is about 9 years old now. For various reasons he hasn't been able to live in the house with them so he had to stay outside in a small fenced area year round. (For those who have been in AZ summers, I'm sure you can imagine what that is like). My mom hasn't been able to give him much attention because of her busy schedule and due to the fact that he has to stay outside, and she has wanted to find a new home for him. Matt and I both (independently) thought we could bring him back with us. He seems to be doing well. He does really well with the kids, but he has had a little bit of a hard time adjusting to Anubis. Rudy hasn't been around a lot of dogs, not to mention a crazy dog that is twice his size that wants to play all day. I can see why he was a little scared at first. They are getting along better now. The kids like him. He is really gentle and would sleep alot of the day if Anubis would let him. I could sum this up with Matt's words, 'with two dogs, we're gonna be the dog people.' I guess he's right- we're officially the dog people.
