Nena and her dog toys

Nena by far is the one that plays with cattoys more than any others. Her favorite actual toy (non straw or other normal household item) is a rubber squeeky pig (dog toy). She carries it around in her mouth and squeeks it to let you know she is behind you. But she has started a game between me and Joe.

One of the things Nena does is inevitably leave the toy on the ground near our bed. So when one of us wakes up in the middle of the night, we step on it creating the loudest squeek possible followed by halfasleep laughing. This process is now called "getting pigged". Now it is common to find the pig (or the rubber chicken) hidden under a pillow or in a pocket. Like bad parents we always seem to blame it on Nena. This has led to "pig paranoia" as well. We often get into bed only AFTER we have inspected the bedding and pillows.

The joys of animals!
