I have twin second cousins who look exactly the same except one has blue eyes and the other brown. Thankfully their mother always dresses them in the same style shirts, but different colors to coordinate with their eye color. Seriously.

Aww...poor little thing. Let Chuckles give him lots of kisses so he's not afraid of dogs after getting bit. Again, poor little guy. But great pic as usual. Good luck with the teething...my little was a pure demon when he got his first. He's up to eight now, and we think he's working on some more.

Apparently, some dog mistook him for a green, plastic dinosaur... It happened to me at that age. Still have the scar. Grew up to be absolutely dog crazy with a giant greyhound.

Cute Picture, as always.

I thought my 7 mo. daughter was late in teething-she doesn't have any yet. Good to know Leta is just now starting. Is she sitting up yet?

Ouch! He sure is a cute little boy, though. Hopefully he isn't scared of dogs. When I was little I was the one to bite dogs....I guess I was kind of weird back then.

Love in Christ,
Amber <><

My son, John-Malachy, beat Leta out of the womb by 3 days, and is working on his sixth and seventh teeth. I hadn't realized yet how competitive he is. The problem, however, is that no ordinary teething ring will satisfy him, and he prefers to use my face, leaving me looking much like poor little Joshua there. Serves me right for mistaking his advances for innocent kisses. Typical man.

teeth are nothing. wait until leta is a teenager and then you'll jump right in that grave you're talking about digging.

it was actually a dog sent by the guy who sends weird emails but the dog got confused.

but, poor kid. he doesn't look very happy about that dog bite. but then again, he may know that you call him "the other one."

Now, I'm not hoping this or anything, but if it scars you'll be able to tell them apart forever :/

When you get hate mail from people telling you that letting a dog bite one of those boys just so that you can tell them apart is evil and wrong and you're going to hell, will you please remember to post it? ;)

I’m sad that I don’t have a hairy chest. Not that I typically go rubbing my boobs on strangers’ windows. But you actually made that sound sorta’ fun.

Congratulations on your schnazzy corporate mailbox.

Dooce, as long as i am too far away and i cant do that on my own will you be that kind to pass my kiss and my higgie to him ;) Thanks

He looks almost like the little one on the Lowercase tee ad you have on your site. Except for the doggie bite. Dogs that bite give dogs like Chuck and Marley a bad name.....

can we have an update on Leta please? :-) how's she been doing with putting weight on her feet?

needless to say "the other one" is a cute boober too

My brother got his face bitten off my a dog when he was little (don't worry, he's fine, they fixed him right up) but now, 25 years later, my mother is still terrified of dogs. He loves them.

Having actually dated the Koopmans in question (at one of the STATE COLLEGEs he attended), I can say with reasonable assuredness that his e-mail was meant in jest.

OUCH! Poor little pook. He looks sad but he can also be tougher than his brother since that experience. Not that it's much consolation to his mom, I'll bet.

BAD DOG!!!!

Dooce. Queen of the com-backs!
Heather, I hate to say that a tiny part of me rejoices when you get a letter like that, because you can tear someone a new one with such grace and poise. It's beautiful. Poor dog bitted kid. Much love to the Dooce fortress.

if a dog did that to my kid, THE DOG WOULD BE DEAD.

and that email, do you think that guy was just messing with you? probably some dude that just wanted to see you post his name on your blog for hype.

Most awesome response to a nasty email EVER. Dooce, you rock the casbah.

VERY bad dog!!!

I hope that Amy is joking about the whole Chechnya/Bridget Jones thing. Word up - Chechnya is a separatist republic within Russia. Of course, Jon knows that. And so do I, even though I went to not one of the most highly esteemed universities in Canada.

I have twin neices named Ruby and Amber. They are often dressed in the same outfit except that Amber's is yellow and Ruby's is, of course, red.

I can only imagine, from seeing previous mentions of these nephews, what they were doing to antagonize a dog into biting the other one. Still, can't help but feel sorry for the little guy.

Hey, George, livejournal is a perfect (free) place to write about your crappy roommates. It is, I think, actually required as part of your livejournal account. Either that, or you have to whinge about your love-life (particularly if it is a "lack thereof"), post dreary poetry and/or pictures (nude, preferebly) of yourself and obsess about your favorite band (particularly the hot lead singer).
