Our kids certainly love every kind of animal...I can remember Austin with Maggie at this age and he loved her just the same as Reagan does now. I know lots of babies that won't get near dogs, but that does not apply to our children. They are well aware of an animals worth. 

Four months in and Austin still asks every day if he can hold his sister, he is relentless. Some people said that the novelty would ware off for him and he would be interested in other things. He was so cute the other day. He said, "Mom, I care about Reagan a lot." It was very cute, but he was not looking for a response from me...he just wanted me to know that.
