Our dog is slightly obsessive. He hurt his foot about a month ago. Now it is healed completely, but in his crazy mind, he thought it would be easier to go up the stairs backwards! Of course, he didn't even start this until his foot was already healed! Now that we got it on video, we will try to fix his issue. You may notice the scratching at the end...also an obsession with him. (Caesar - the dog whisperer- would need to spend at least a week with us!)

Claire and Fred
My class was given a ball python in June of this year. We have been getting used to Fred (the snake), how to hold him, take care of him, etc. He is about 1 1/2 to 2 feet long now. (He doesn't easily stay straight to measure him.)
Last night, Claire and I went back to school to feed him. Before he ate, we took the opportunity to hold him and snap a few photos. Claire got a Reptile Book recently which lists all of the various reptiles, and how easy they are to care for. The ball python page states that ball pythons should be cared for by experts. At this point she turns to me and says, "But Mom, you're not an expert!" I know!! Like I said, we are still learning. :) As a funny side note, a day after we got Fred in our classroom, we were also given another class pet: a hamster! Her name is Cupcake. Fred and Cupcake have to be kept on opposite sides of the room, just in case. :) We tend to like Fred much better than Cupcake; Cupcake keeps biting us!

Here is Claire holding Fred. When Claire was taking some of the photos, she didn't want me in them, so that is my hand in the one. She would take a picture of him, then one of my face. :)
