I think the dog has alopecia {and other things that happened this week}

It's been a super busy week.  Work is crazy with the Memorial Day Weekend coming up.  Holidays kinda stink when you work at a beach club.  Don't get me wrong...they're great for all of you people who get a three day weekend.  But those of us that work holidays, it means one extra day of work.  Ugh.  I just need Josh to pick the right numbers when the Powerball gets back up to $400 million.  Anyways, for all of you that need to keep up with the Jones'...here's what happened this week:

Juliette slept in her crib in her room!  She's sooo incredibly independent already.  Of course, I was a nervous mess the first night she wasn't sleeping in our bedroom.  So nervous that I slept on the couch so I could be closer to her room if she needed me.  Welp...she didn't need me!  Here she is passed out for the night. 

Juliette's oldest brother, Mugsy, looks like he has alopecia.  He went back to the vet this week for the 4th week in a row (literally!).  He has had every test in the book done on him. Skin has been scraped, medicated baths, thyroid tests...you name it.  Darn dog is costing a fortune these days!  We've narrowed it down to food allergies and/or a yeast infection (a yeast infection on his skin...creeeeeeepy).  So he's been on meds for a good solid month now.  And if you know Mugsy, you know he's not the easiest of dogs to work with.  Pill time is no bueno.  I also caved in this week and called Bark Busters.  Bark Busters will be coming over to work with us on training the pups to be good and obedient.  Wish us luck!  We're going to need it.

On a prettier note, my succulent potted garden looks great!  I have now proven that I can keep succulents alive!  (Basically, that means the dogs have not yet tried to eat them. Last year, the tomato plant didn't survive if you get my drift.)
