Leia and the Canadian Goose

Sunday was Leia's 6 month anniversary at our house! We brought her home on December 22, 2007 and have been a happy family every since. We gave her a small stuffed Canadian Goose on Sunday - which she destroyed in about 10 minutes. Everytime we give her a squeaky stuffed animal, her goal is to remove the squeak. And she's usually successful.

She's slowly starting to sniff out people food. So far her favorite human food is cheese...but I've also seen her lick up a few stray Cheerios or Goldfish. If you drop a piece of cheese into her silver stainless steel bowl, she'll come to see what it is. Then guard her bowl for about an hour just incase another piece falls from the sky. (We don't feed her from our hand unless she does a trick first.) She is very good at "sit" and usually just goes ahead and "sits" right in front of us so that we'll give her a treat (even if we don't have one to give.)

Speaking of Leia's anniversary - these few weeks seem to be filled with anniversaries. June 11th was my 7 year anniversary at XM, and on Thursday, June 26th - our 9th wedding anniversary. Can I get an Amen!
