What Is a Baby?

R-2 has officially marked his playpen crib as 'his'. While Randall was changing him the other day, Maynard, Julie's cat, had been sleeping underneath the changing table without Randall knowing. During the diaper change, Maynard poked his head out and started emerging from his hiding place. As he did so, Randy had begun to pee and the stream went straight up into the air and in the path that Maynard was now taking from beneath the table. Poor Maynard!


As you can see from this picture, Maynard is missing quite a bit of hair from a recent hip surgery from when he somehow fractured his hip. This cat has been through a lot! But, he does seem to like Randy a lot and enjoys watching him 'do his thing'.


Ween, on the other hand, hasn't been himself lately. He mainly just slinks around the house and watches the baby with a cautious eye. I don't know if he's jealous or territorial himself, but he definitely seems starved for attention whenever I get a chance to pet him. He'll come around....
