Life continues to be very fun with Theo. He gets more and more fun every day. He's a real smiler and loves to laugh. His favorite word is "Doggie" and while we hope that his first word because that would be so dang cute, we're kind of loading the deck by speaking entirely in the word "doggie." The real-life doggies are doing well with Theo. We know that Scout has officially assimilated him as a part of the family because she now includes him in her bark-fest when we arrive home. Scout is a great watchdog. She could care less about strangers (thank God Digory is keeping us safe from the UPS Men of the world) but if someone she knows walks in the house, she barks and barks and barks. Now when we walk in she goes to me and gives me a piece of her mind, then over to Kevin, and then swings by the infant car seat carrier to let Theo know how she feels. It would be heartwarming if it weren't so damn loud.
Kevin is nearly done with the wine cellar. I'm very excited about it and it looks great so far. He partitioned a corner off of the garage and built two walls, then insulated the heck out of it all. My dad provided us with the cooler unit that used to be in his wine cellar (it was practically brand-new and he had planned to use it until he found that he wasn't allowed to vent into the garage, or something--I'm kind of unclear about the details but hey, his loss is our gain!) so we've got that in store. We're going to set up some inexpensive Ikea racks for now, but eventually we hope to do a custom racking system that looks all cool and stuff. Soon we will be selling our wine cooler. Anyone want a Vinotemp?
