Whenever the baby eats, there’s a baby-stalker. When the 3 yr old eats, there’s a baby-stalker.
He lurks in the shadows under the table. He follows quietly but you can still feel his hot breath on your calves. His cold nose inches close to your hand. His tongue reaches out to a messy baby-finger. He knows if he’s patient, he’ll be rewarded with a helpless animal cracker that fell out of the grasp of a small child.
And so he watches…patiently, ever attentively, cautious so the bigger people don’t shoo him away. But he’s always present. Just a few feet away, brown eyes watching and cold nose sniffing.
LOL! We had one baby stalker, now we have five people stalkers.

Ha! Look at that baby-stalker… sitting there waiting for someone to accidentally drop some food or intentionally throw some his way. Hopefully, he’s also there with a carefully guarded and protective eye…

But isn’t it nice to have a built-in vacuum cleaner so you don’t have to pick up crumbs? I like dogs for that special Clean-up Feature. My cat eats spiders and bugs–that’s his specialty.

😀 lol…Very true! Milk, too…he loves it when our 3 yr old tries to pour his own milk.
What a pretty dog. Hey, at least your don’t have to clean the floor after dinner. LOL! We have two of those baby stalkers. The best floor sweepers I ever met.

He’s great at washing dishes, too. Give him a pan and it’s spotless in no time! The only downside is our dishes taste like dog breath…
(yes, sooo kidding)
We have one of those who stalks my mother-in-law when she comes over to our house. They find the weakest link who is most likely to drop food.

Yep…it’s the “old folks” and the babies they go after. He’d definitely like me pregnant.
We used to have a glass table and if food fell even just from our fork to our plate my dog would bash her face against the table to try and catch it. It prevent injuries we had to get a table cloth and a kennel.

LOL! That’s hilarious!! I just picture our dog doing something like that 😀
Funny how cats stalk. Mine follow me all around too, usually staying just out of my reach.

I wish one would stay out of reach…she’s awful. She literally runs between your feet going down stairs. I can’t count the number of times we’ve tripped over her.
