tootsie rolls and terrorizing the cat

Finn likes to go out to the mailbox with me to check the mail because he knows he's going to get a treat from the mailman. Every day the mailman, John, leaves a tootsie roll for Finn. His face lights up when we walk out to the street and closer and closer to the mailbox. When he got his tootsie roll the other day, he said "deese" and I opened it up for him and gave him half of it. He usually eats the first half and then asks for the rest of it. Well, that day he had to keep taking it out out of his mouth and looking at the half eaten, slobbery piece of candy. Of course, every time he took it out of his mouth, a big drop of brown slobber would come out with it and land on the floor or his shirt. So, I told him not to take it out of his mouth. He understood what this meant because when I turned to walk away, I quickly looked at him to see that he had his hand at his mouth again getting ready to pull the candy out. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that I was watching him and he just froze. I didn't move but just looked at him with half of his tootsie roll hanging out of his mouth and his hand almost touching it. His eyes darted to the side and when he saw that I was still looking at him he gave a little giggle. I couldn't keep from laughing at him so there was no point in punishing him. He just didn't get the other half of tootsie roll that day.

Wanting the camera.


Don't know why I like this one so much. He just looks so calm and sweet.


Another sweet and calm picture.

Eating the horse.


Zodie finally had enough and decided to leave.



Mattea and Jeramy were playing the piano and Finn was dancing.

More terrorizing of Zodie. I don't know why she hasn't just keeled over and died from a heart attack. I would if someone twice my size was running after me while yelling and screaming all the time
