We have a Winner!

Has it really be 10-days since the last post? Wow. After a year, I'm apparently SO over this blogging thing. No, that's not true. I've got to win back St. Helena first.

Maybe this big announcement will bring them back:

In the War of the Brains, Finn has finally emerged victorious over the cats! Yes, it's true. No, this does not mean he now has figured out how to poop in a box that I only need to clean once a week. But it does mean that he now clearly understands what we're saying and reacts accordingly.

The other day when I got home from work, Kitty asked Finn to go bring me his ball and he walked into the other room and reached under the sofa to pull out the ball. The cats have never done that!

And it gets better: if he's refusing to eat and is crying (read: every day) and we ask him if he wants milk, he can easily find his sippy cup and angrily knock it to the ground!

Awesome!

Here's a picture of the new one-year-old definitely not crying or angry while on the slide with mommy. Perhaps we need to move meal time to the park.
