The Plastic Cup

Last night Ryan and I witnessed one of the funniest things we had seen in a long time! Carson is growing up so fast, 8 1/2 months old and crawling all over the place. Well the boys had left a plastic cup on the floor (one that you would throw away) and Carson spotted it and went for it. Licorice (the dog) was watching his every move, and right before Carson got the cup Licorice ran over and picked it up and walked to the other side of the room. Carson doesn't give up easily and headed after him. As soon as he reached Licorice, Licorice once agan relocated, with Carson following close behind. Several times Carson practically crawled over Licorice to get the cup from him. Licorice started boxing him out, turning his back to Carson over and over to prevent him from getting the cup. Licorice finally jumped up to Ryan as if to say "please save me" Ryan and i just laughed and laughed. Then Ryan took the cup from licorice and gave it to Carson. Licorice looked so betrayed. I felt bad and went into the kitchen to get a new cup for Licorice. When I gave it to him he immediately headed down the hall with him far away from Carson. A little later he came back and grabbed the other cup (Carson had now moved on from it) and took it down the hall too. I tried to get it on video, but it was dead. I love seeing our dog interact with the boys!!
