Baby Chiquitita Isabella Caroline Smith

Since our last update a few things have happened. Suzy sent Otis (Viszla) to live with a new family. Apparently he was too cool to hang with our kind. In other probably just as important news, Suzy had her baby. Isabella Caroline Smith was born March 7th at 4:26am. She weighed 9' 11''. She was 22 inches long. When she was born she was so swollen, but since then she has thinned out.

Ethan finally started to get his molars to poke through. He also got tubes put in his ears. It seems to help, but more importantly it gets rid of the repetitious ear infections. Some of his most recent tricks are: eating with a fork, fake sneezing, and climbing. He whines if he does not get a fork. Not a kid fork, but a big fork. He actually stabs food and makes it to his mouth. He doesn't like spoons as much. His fake sneezing is really precious. I don't know where he learned it, but when someone sneezes, he will quietly fake sneeze after they do. He even gets the head movement in with it. He also knows when you are fake sneezing and he won't waste his fake sneezes on you if you are not really sneezing. Apparently he can tell the difference between fake sneezes and real sneezes. As with most kids, he loves to climb. He gets up on chairs to get stuff off the table and climbs in the high chair just to look around.
