Dog Toys

Recently, as Caden has become mobile, we have had a frequent battle/problem. Caden is always going for the dog toys. Though he has TONS of toys that are his, of course, he is drawn to all of Roxy's stuffed toys and bones. I am constantly putting Roxy's toys back in her basket, and she finds it a fun game to constantly take every single (I'm not exaggerating) toy out to play with. Thus, Caden having easy access to them all. And of course, both Roxy and Caden enjoy putting all toys in their mouths, so.... well, you see the problem. Roxy has even claimed a couple of Caden's stuffed animals as her own since apparently any stuffed toy on the ground is fair game. (My mom was nice enough to give one of those toys a cleaning makeover, throughouly washing and disinfecting it so Caden could once again call it his own after Roxy had been carrying it around, slobbering and wrestling with it for a few days without us noticing it wasn't her toy). So as problems go, this is minor in the scheme of life, but makes us laugh and frustrated all at the same time. Just had to share. That's all. :)

Here are some pics of the struggle. The pink pig and reindeer in the pics below are Roxy's that Caden is constantly going for.

Surrounded by his toys...oh wait, that's Roxy's. Ew. Atleast the book and monkey are his.
