Snack Time!

This is Lexi and Sparkles. Lexi is waiting for supper and Sparkles is waiting for Lexi to drop or throw some of that supper off her highchair tray so Sparkles can pick up a quick snack. Before Lexi started eating table food, we had put both of our chubby dogs on a diet (advised by the vet). They were given half salt-free green beans and 1/2 of their dry food. May sound funny.....but it worked!! We are happy to say that worked and both Sparkles and Snickers lost weight. But now it seems to inching back on them. Of course it is; they follow Lexi around when she's munching on a snack or like the photo above, waiting to see it they are lucky to grab something if it to drops. There is nothing to do about Lexi....I mean toddlers are messy eaters and will throw food on the floor if they don't like it. So, we will keep up the diet for the dogs and hope for the best. Hey, at least with the dogs, there are not a lot of crumbs to clean up. It sort of got me remembering back to when our girls were toddlers and our dogs at the time really came in handy. Living with three young girls makes me remember a lot of wonderful memories of when our girls were small......but, I will be honest. I seem to be having more fun this time around. Some can understand that and some can't. But it's the way I feel and I don't really worry about it.
