Libby is the Bread Bandit!


Even though Libby is 4-years-old she still sometimes acts like a puppy. Tonight, after dinner there were two buns sitting on the counter top. My mom was cleaning up after dinner and she left the kitchen for a few minutes, and when she came back both buns were gone! Libby jumped up and ate both buns while no one was in the kitchen. She probably swallowed them whole too. She usually doesn't chew her food, especially when she's excited she'll just swallow the food whole. Now my dad calls Libby the "bread bandit"!

Luckily, the buns weren't too hot because Libby has gotten a hold of food that was too hot before and almost immediately after she eats really hot food, she gets sick. She can't handle the hot temperature of food.

Libby Puts the "Retriever" in Golden Retriever


If you know Libby or have been reading this blog, then you know that Libby loves to carry around a variety of things in her mouth including the remote control, clothes, stuffed animals and water bottles. These are the norm for her to carry around.

Libby Has No Fear...
Well, this week she brought in something brand new from outside...A WASP'S NEST! Somehow she got a hold of a wasp's nest and brought it inside. She has no fear of bees and wasps like I do. My family has to be careful when we let Libby in from outside because she often brings in rocks or sticks and she likes to chew on them and make a mess in the dining room. Unfortunately, she has also found a bird in our backyard and tried to bring that into the house too. So, whenever we let Libby in we always look in her mouth and see if it looks full or not. I guess it's just in her nature to have the desire to retrieve all these things.

Libby Wants to Play Baseball...
As you see in these pictures, Libby brought a bat and ball inside that she found in the backyard. Although, she couldn't figure out how to get the bat to fit through the door.
