I am just so smitten with my little 8 month old sable gal........Trixie. She does something new every day that just amazes me and her little habits are so adorable to me. For instance.......she stole two of my red satin pillowcases that were stashed, by myself, in a bag in my hall closet. She would drag them out and lay on them. Apparently she likes the coolness and the texture. If I lay one out she'll stretch out on it and lay there for awhile. If we take it away from her she runs around trying to grab it from us. While we were out of town my cousins watched her and spoiled her rotten. They have a new game they taught her that is her new favorite. If you grab the end of her dryer tube, she'll jump in the other end.....and turn around real quick so she can see out. She'll sit there until you take off running ....... her dragging behind in the tube. If you stop and dump her out she jumps back in, turns around, and looks at you like, "GO ALREADY!!!" Silly girl!!!! What I find particularly cute.........She hides behind our high-boy armoire in the guest room. It's out away from the wall so that you can see behind it. If you take her rubber ball (with the bell inside) and shake it, she'll come out and roll over and over until you give it to her. LOL If one is this much fun.......I need another one!!! Love and Dooks to all! Shea & Trixie [Posted in FML issue 3179]
