Chore Inspectors

Uschi "helps" while unloading groceries

The boys are very "helpful" when it comes to cleaning up around the house. When we put their toys away, they inspect the process closely and pull them back out rapidly. When we load/unload the dishwasher, they climb in and inspect the process. When the clothes washer starts up, Uschi stands on his hind legs and watches the clothes go around. Vacuuming doesn't seem too scare them to much. Uschi will sit right in the middle of the floor until I actually push him out of the way with the running vacuum. He also likes to sit on the power cord and play "anchor". Tanj is a little less sure of the vacuum, but doesn't go far. Tanj does however like to find any unattended glass and inspect its contents. As for groceries,... the bag noises are just too much and they have to help flatten any stray bag or box.

Toy Boys

Watching a fly

Tanj & Uschi are feeling much better and seem to love their new food. We’re wondering if they could have caught the “stomach flu” virus that has been traveling in our area. Another rainy spring day and the boys are playing with their toys, chasing flies, exploring new hiding spots, and, of course, napping. Uschi loves chasing “DaBird” and licking his white mouse. Tanj sticks with his glitter balls and gray/brown fur mice. Occasionally we hear some serious chirping or growling, and there is usually a favorite toy involved…
