Sounds like our boy Huey. Mommy can get away with anything with him but I have to walk the straight and narrow. I can get a kiss out of him but only on his terms and occasionally he tries to see if I'm a sucker (yes).

Well... I made a total rookie mistake. I was operating on autopilot clearly. JoJo has a habit of asking for kisses in many different way while I am holding her, and she typically gets them from me. Well, I was carrying Morgan from one place to the other and he said "Kiss" and without thinking I went in for the kiss. Well, that was definitely a shock and got a nice bite to the upper lip that led to some slight bleeding and a fat lip. That'll teach me to be more attentive. I've not been bitten like that by either of my girls before so it was a shock. I just have to remind myself how slow I went with them in the beginning. I think I just feel so much more comfortable now with handling them and understanding how to read them I just welcomed Morgan right into the family and started including him in the routine, which clearly was clearly too fast. Oh well, live, learn, laugh?

Wow Karen, you really do have your hands full -- bless you for doing so much for Timber. Poor tyke -- I imagine Timber receives special joy in each affection/attention, toy or special food offered.
