...at least, I am. Oscar might be another story.
Watching all 3 boys this week was a nutty undertaking, but we're managing and getting into a routine. I'm not particularly fond of the morning routine, though, as it seems to keep starting earlier and earlier. Once one of them is up, the other two are soon to follow, and when you have 2 little dogs walking all over your prone body, it's only a matter of time before your feet hit the floor.
One of the things that has been amusing me the most is catching Murray staring at himself in Mom's mirrored closet doors. He'll be sitting in bed real still, so I look over to see what he's up to, and he's just admiring himself in the mirror. One time, he sat on the floor in front of the mirror, and I stood behind him talking to him in the mirror. I walked to the right and he followed me, still staring into the mirror, and then he was totally confused when I all of a sudden disappeared from in front of him (my reflection was no longer in the mirror). He tried to find me behind the corner, but to no avail :)
Well, it's 6:40am, and we've been up for nearly 2 hours, mostly just lazing around in bed after a quick run outside. Murray's trying to engage his cousin Disco in some horse play, but he wants nothing to do with it. He just keeps stretching and yarning and giving me the occassional kiss. Oh darn, I spoke too soon. All hell's breaking loose. They all want to go out NOW!!! That's how it's been all this time, one minute all's calm and the next, there are 3 blurring bodies.
Well, I best go answer their call before they take over my keyboard. I'll report some more in future posts.

Sounds like you are "dog sitting" to me. This will probably turn out to be quite an experience for both you and Murray.
Where are the pictures of the "cousins" frolicking around?
Well it could be worse. You could have Phil living with you for a week. Asking for breakfast at 4am. Not just cereal, meat eggs and potatoes.
amelia,
Unfortunately, no pictures of them frolicking. Some would be rated R if I had taken them...lol. They move around way too much and won't stay still long enough for a picture to be taken.
It definitely was an experience! Murray and I were in bed real early our first night back home :)
texasgal,
Your mom's up that early...let him go ask her, 'cause he ain't getting no meat, eggs, and potatoes from me...lol.
