John has his first loose tooth! It's his right mandibular central incisor (or tooth "P" for all you dental types out there). He's very excited about it. He has also found his athletic niche ..... swimming. We've starting calling him "Otter Boy" because he took to floating on his back so quickly. He can float forever and in the midst of all sorts of chaos at the pool. And his freestyle and backstroke are really good for just learning them. He passed level 2 swimming with flying colors and will definitely zoom through level 3. In fact, he learned so much so quickly, he only has two new things to learn to pass level 3 and that's treading water and the basics of the butterfly. He's quite amazing. He's as adept and coordinated in the water as Roslyn is on land. Ros still has four things to master before she passes level 2, but she's doing just fine.
As far as George, my lovable dufus dog, he got into the garbage about a week ago and we thought he ate the BBQ rib bones. Which he probably did, but it turned out that what made him very sick (from both ends, but I'll spare you the details) was the corn cobs that he ate from the trash. Fortunately, he appears to have puked them all up and is about 90% back to normal. I had to take him to the vet and make sure that he didn't have any internal "blockages" that required surgical removal. What a knucklehead!!
