One of my biggest challenges, right now, is trying to stay one step ahead of the boys. [View all]

For example, if I want to keep a glass of ice water bedside, at night, I have to use a drinking cup with a lid to keep Madoc from washing his paws in it, or fishing out the ice cubes so he can chase them around any flat surface.

Gryff's big thing, right now, is he will stretch out flat against the last step and wait for me to come along. He thinks he's invisible so I have to pretend I'm going to step on him and then let out a little cry of surprise. Weird, I know, but he gets up and scampers down the hallway. If he could giggle, I'm sure that's what he'd be doing.
