The camera was only able to catch the last half of his song - but it is still so cute!

Bye, bye Lucy
Well, Lucy has found a new home. It's been a week since she left so I think it's official - she's not coming back. I needed to go back to work (to pay off bills and pay for all the new things I want to buy the new baby) and with this new baby on the way, we felt it best to find a better family for her. And boy, did we! They are inlove with her as far as we can tell and I couldn't be happier. The family has another Weimaraner in the neighborhood and apparently they get to play outside together all the time. It's like a Weim club and they sort of disconnect from the other dogs... what snobs. Anyway, it's been weird not having her around - but also a relief in some ways. Dogs come with responsibility, and I have been rather enjoying not having that responsibility right now. :)
Maybe someday in the future we'll get a dog again, but as I figure it: I'm in my prime baby-makin' years. We're gonna have my hands full with #2 on his or her way - 3 more weeks til we find out which - and then a few years later, maybe #3. We haven't decided how many kids we are having yet, but I think we have decided that dogs can wait for a while.
But fish... now, there's a pet or two with much less responsibility. And the fish tank can act as ambient noise for Jack's sleeping pleasure. It's more pricey than I thought to start it up, but a lot less expensive to maintain. And we don't have to make sure they get proper exercise and affection. I also found out there ARE fish that can live peacefully with Betta fish, so I'm excited! We have started with just some Zebra Danios (tiny, but very active little things) and then we'll get the Betta after the first nitrate cycle. Look at me! I'm using fish lingo already.
Wish us luck!

Sumo-Jack!
While I was trying on some maternity clothes, Pete and Jack came up with a way to entertain themselves.
