This is what I walked in the door to last night...

After an evening with my husband, celebrating one retirement and one promotion, we got home around 8:30 (long drive) and this is what we saw...

No, we didn't beat her, she didn't run into a fence...she ate not one, but TWO blue pens...one sharpie, one white board marker. I accidentally left them on the coffee table when I rushed out to pick up my husbands car...this was the first day I let her stay out after our bed became her potty....you can't tell me a child is any more difficult, I simply don't believe it! She even looks guilty and knows she was bad in the first pic and when it came for the underbelly shots, she rolled over by herself, the hubby just kept her from wiggling....Thank you Penelope, I needed a reminder of what it takes to get blue ink out of carpet, your bed, and your WHITE fur.
