Spots

Molly and Frank have their "spots" . . where you can nearly always find them . . sleeping, chewing on toys, being their cute selves etc.

Molly's favorite spot is at the top of the couch looking out the window. This allows her to track all cars coming in and out of the neighborhood, as well as the dogs going on walks in the neighborhood. Ryan says that this is a Schnauzer trait and tries to limit her stalking time by putting the window shade down. Apparently, he had a Schnauzer named Muffin who chose the chair in the living room as her "spot" and became so lazy she was nicknamed Sweatpants. Seriously. So if this is the precedent that has been set, I can totally understand why Ryan restricts Molly's stalking time. Also, Molly likes to "talk" to those walking by . . and then Frank likes to join in. So I know when all the neighborhood dogs go on walks and when the kids get let out from the elementary school down the street. OH and she also snots up the window . . . I figured that if we never cleaned it, she wouldn't be able to see out the window and then wouldn't bark at every freaking thing that was out there . . but Ryan thinks its gross and he cleans it every few days. Ugh! Here is Molly in her spot:


Frank's spot is near people. Usually that is with me, but when I am busy, he chooses others . . case in point, the following pictures. I felt bad that Franklin was sleeping directly on the floor, so I decided to move his dog bed closer to me, and of course put his favorite blanket there. He might be spoiled.




Franklin loves little kids and Zoe loves Franklin, so this combination works out pretty well, especially when his blanket is involved. :)



And here Franklin decided to snuggle with Ryan . . . everyone, together now "aawwwwww".
