A Gambian Giant Pouched Rat getting four legs up on Xmas.
I am so conflicted.
Poor dog doesn’t want to go in then don’t goad him. 
That Wonderful Thing led me to here - that’s my evening gone then.
Hard to hide from hunters with a huge pink ball stuck on your head…
I’d be surprised if no one has yet been inspired by this and built a kitschy table lamp. All you’d need is a buck-shaped ‘body’ and a spherical diffuser.
I love Baby’s laughing
Early Experiment in Cause and Effect:
Ouch!
Ha ha ha!
Ouch!
Ha ha ha!
Ouch!
Ha ha ha!
(This one’s a biter!)
Hard to bite without any teefes…
She was viciously gummed!
Speaking from experience, baby gums are no fucking joke.
Yep. Baby body strength is way under-rated. My mom (baby-sitting my then 1.5 year old niece) was holding her while standing in a supermarket checkout line when she – my niece – flexed her legs and sprung up like a jack-in-the-box — over my mom’s shoulder — and into the arms of the customer standing behind her. My mom vowed to never hold her in that “certain way” again!
Good thing the customer behind your mom had quick reflexes!
Agreed. I think the customer was already aware of her though. People tend to stare at babies who stare at them, and — like all babies — she likely fixated on the person behind my mom. So I think my niece’s face was already visible to the customer. She’s a cutie. May as well give you her name: Danielle. On another baby-sitting chore, my parents and Danielle ran into Pearl Baily at a gas station in Hibernia, New Jersey. Per my mom, the Great Pearl Baily saw Danielle sitting on my mom’s lap in the car, went over, and stroked Danielle’s cheek, saying, “Oh! What a cute little baby!” Knowing my folks, they would have gone nuts actually meeting Pearl. In my mind’s eye – and knowing my parents – I could easily see my dad yelling. “Look! It’s Pearl Baily!” and going all effusive. 
I was gonna comment, but I thought I’d wait for someone who may have experience. (My SILs told me that babies can be little vise grips. 
)
Totally true.
