Reagan and Benson love animals. They get so excited when they see a dog. They run up to almost every dog they see and try to pet them. You would think we would be nice enough to get them a pet dog. We aren't that nice so the boys just play with this dog. If you ask Reagan if he wants a dog he will let you know that he has one. This toy dog. If you ask him if he wants a real pet dog he will say "NO! We don't have a bucket and shovel. So I will never be able to play ball in the back yard again."
I took the boys to a birthday party last weekend. The birthday boy has a real dog a little bigger then the dog in this picture. Benson was so excited to see the dog and chased it all over the yard. When he finally caught the dog he sat on the dog just as he is sitting on the one in this picture. Then he started screaming "Go! Go! Go!" When the dog didn't go he got off the dog and kicked him real hard. After the kick the dog decided to go.
Our boys may really love dogs but for now we think it is best to just stick with this toy dog.
awwww-Benson is way cute...I'm sure the dog didnt' mind ;-) Besides, Benson wasn't kicking that dog-he was probably just passing him an imaginary soccer ball!
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel though-we typically have to leave get togethers/picnics early because Jonah will never stay put and we get totally embarrassed by how Jonah pushes other kids and all the crazy things he says!
Your kids definately haven't gotten the whole pet thing figured out yet. I still remember Reagan taking the mixer for a walk.
