Day 146: Remember, We Have a Toddler In The House

Brad and I are out of practice of having a toddler full time living in the house. 

Outlets are exposed, baby gates have long been taken down, toys are left on the floor, food is left within reach on the kitchen counter. 

We might not have a human baby in the house, but new puppy Sonic is proving to be the exact equivalent of a 2 year old human shithead. 

She enjoys, in no particular order, pooping upstairs on Camden's floor, chewing on loose Lego pieces, launching herself on the kitchen counter to eat whatever's been left unattended (including a peach pit! Which she luckily spit out), and knocking over full Pepsi cans/coffee mugs/water glasses that we have haphazardly left on the ledge of our sofa. 

We are very much out of practice and have to remind each other constantly not to leave anything "dangerous" (for the item, not her) out. 

Sonic also likes hoarding random items, like a human toddler might do. She will run upstairs, snatch my bra out of the laundry basket, and gleefully gallop downstairs and deposit it in the middle of the sofa. Luckily I don't host many fancy dinner parties where she could embarrass me. 

Training has been a slow process but we're working on it. It's a good thing she's cute and Calen loves her so much.
