When trying to figure out the best way to wear down a child that has more energy than both parents, use the animals. They have almost as much energy as the child and both child and animal has fun. Mikayla found something that made Milo happy since he was able to chase this around the house. Mikayla likes to be chased and having either the dogs (Phoebe is Mikayla favorite chase buddy) or Milo takes the pressure off the older folks (i.e. us parents).
Now before anyone gets excited about seeing another dog in the video, no we have not gotten another dog (even though the thought is there). This is our neighbors dog, Sammy, who we were watching for the weekend. It seems that all the animals that Mikayla meets seems to like kids. This is very important to us since we want her to enjoy all species. We are teaching her the importance of being careful and not all animals are the same as hers at home. She doesn't quite get ti yet, but we are setting the foundation.
