| The '2 foot' rule at our house We have a sectional in our living room and our DR table backs up to it so Maddie Jo likes to sit on the back of the couch with her 2 front feet on the edge of the table and watch me cook. She will stretch out as far as she can to check something out that I set on the table but she will only put her 2 front feet on the table...one back foot remains on the couch and the other one is airborn! So, technically, that's only 2 feet, right?? If she gets carried away and forgets the rule all we have to say is '2 feet Maddie Jo' and she removes the offending foot (feet)...she's so funny! Well, evidently, Miss Moo doesn't pay attention like her sister does...she truly thinks being cute will get you everywhere you need to go in life So, I'm standing at the stove making my omelet and I turn around to see...Miss Moo totally comfortable and all stretched out on my DR table watching me cook Maddie Jo is on the back of the couch, where she belongs, being a good girl I remind Miss Moo of the 2 foot rule and she steps onto the back of the couch where she should have been all along. Man...she needs to pay attention once in a while! (Disclaimer: please don't be grossed out by my girls stepping on my table...it's for decoration only...we never sit there to eat ) |

| Haha! I'm glad you weren't grossed out...I know some people would be but, honestly...I only have a table there because you're 'supposed' to have one in the house, right??!! It only catches purses and grocery bags and the only living being that actually sits there is my plant! Well, and Miss Moo |

| LOL, not grossed out here either. I once layed out cookies to cool across my table, left the room and came back to foot prints through the cookies. If we leave a chair out far enough, my Mylee will be on the table the exact moment you turn your back! My dogs also lick dishes out of the dishwasher. I tell them no (but only when DH is there because he doesn't like it). I rinse my dishes before they go in there so they are only getting wattered down crumbs, and they get washed with very hot water when they get washed for real.....Oh well, I don't have any company over ever for entertaining. We all share our own germs......

| Miss Moo & Maddie Jo sound so cute! I love their names. I can totally see them in the act. I am LOL thinking about one time my sisters dog jumped into a chair, well Princess wanted to copy so she tried to jump on this tall folding table. She failed but it was too funny. All Princess jumps on at home is the coffee table as when we moved a year ago I refused to get a table! We don't eat on it and it collects everything, plus now Princess has more room to play fetch.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | That's so cute. I love how they know the 2 foot rule. Not grossed out about DR table. Mine is to fill the space in there also.
