So over the holidays we got Roo a cool little Wall-E table and chairs. We put it in the living room and hooked up the VCR and it's now his own little Elmo viewing room. A lot of nights he'll like to have his dinner and watch Elmo at the same time. The only disturbance is Baxter....because, you're not a real lab if you don't beg or try to steal food constantly! However, since Roo can be a lot like his mommy sometimes he has a bit of a love/hate relationship with B (that's what Roo calls him). He gets pretty upset when B steals his food....unless of course he would rather have a snack. For example, just last night mommy and daddy spent a lot of time preventing Baxter from stealing his food. Baxter tried sneaking through the dining room around the table and also sneaking in down the hallway. But, mommy and daddy were on top of things last night and thwarted his efforts. Sure enough, after all of this effort to keep Roo's dinner in tact, Roo decided he'd rather have a snack than a meal. Daddy told him to eat more of his dinner at which point Roo called B to eat his food.
Roo likes to make sure B is fed. Mommy is guessing that when she put Baxter on a diet a while ago, that he had a conversation with Roo to make sure that he wouldn't starve. And sure enough, Roo likes to make sure on almost a daily basis that he saves some of his food to feed to B. 
Finally, if you happen upon a pair of white shorts with sharks on them from The Childrens Place, please buy them in sizes 3T and 4T and possibly even 5. Roo spends his days at home in these shorts and sleeps in them for naptime and at night. We can't imagine what would happen to his little world if lets say, Baxter ate them.....or if mommy just decides she can't stand them anymore.
