Introducing Petey!

So I'm sure that news has gotten around about our new addition. Nathan came home late one day from work with a 2 month old pit bull in his arms. We've had him for about a month now and he is growing like a weed. At his 1st vet visit, he was 5 lbs. One month later at his 2nd vet visit, he was 16!! If you have never had a very young puppy, it is a lot like having a baby....well not a lot, but there are some similarities. When he was smaller we had to take turns letting him out in the middle of the night, he puts everything in his mouth and he sleeps a lot. It was quite a change from our gentle giant, Lucy. We're not sure how big he is going to get. His dad was a bigger dog and Petey's head is getting pretty big. This is Petey at 8 weeks.
and....
this is at 12 weeks. He is a little hard to get him to sit still right now so this was the best I could do for a picture, I'm hoping he gets to be close to 75 lbs.

In other news, Nathan got a new job! He started about 2 weeks ago and will be selling insurance for Progressive. It is an inbound sales position so no cold calls. These past 2 weeks he has been studying for his state insurance license exam, which he passed today. He is very excited to be doing something new. The new job included a raise and all the progressive swag we could ever want. Those kind of perks come along with a call center I guess, we have more T-mobile stuff then we could ever need.

So as far as current events in this branch of the Cinocco family, that is about it. We're looking forward to the holidays and seeing everyone!!
