Three Peas in a Pod!

 

 

This post is all about pics with two videos. I'm going to do my best to try to showcase a few videos of the pets and us now on the blog. The boys are getting up there in age, it's a must to get some videos of C, S, and little P together! Plus we're a bit sad we didn't get videos and more pics of Storm before she passed. To see the full video you may have to click on it in the middle of the pic where the sideways triangle is. Depends on how your computer is set up whether or not it's necessary to click on it to view. Then again it might only show highlights of the video over and over instead of the full video with audio, the video was taken with my camera not our actual video camera.  I need to still experiment with posting videos, bare with me folks. I'll work out the kinks in the coming weeks! :)

 

First let me start out by explaining my surprise when I noticed a rather familiar sight now occurring times 3!  There I was sitting on the couch just a few minutes before Brad came home for the evening, I quickly glanced over at our sleeping trio as I got up to walk towards the kitchen to begin making dinner. I glanced at the trio then quickly did a double take! I couldn't believe my eyes! I tip-toed to get the camera so I could capture the moment. Study the pic below closely to see what it is that caught my eye!

 

 Look closely at all three of them! Do you see it? Can you notice what I'm talking about? All three of them have their tongues out!!!! My little sweet peas!

 

 

Here are the close-ups of this camera session:

 I think we have us a mini-Cody in training! Although she runs to get her meals like Simon!  In most other regards she's favoring Cody.

 Video of Simon and Piper playing.

 

 Two peas in a pod!

 Cody and his daddy playing tug-o-war!  Cody won! Or perhaps Brad let him win! I love how he quickly walks away after he gets the toy from Brad's grasp. See ya!

 Hey Pipe....who is your fave pug in the house? Pipe says, "this one!"

Tongue out again!

 

 

So you be the judge?  A learned behavior or simply a coincidence!  When we saw her stick her tongue out the first or second time we were undecided as to whether or not she knew she was sticking her tongue out.  However, it is quite the coincidence that we would have...not one, not two, but now three pets that stick their tongues out. Unlike Cody it's not all the time for two of them, thank goodness! In the past few days I've noticed it's not just when Piper is asleep. Same for Simon, most of the time he has his tongue out when he's asleep or visibly tired but it does peek out at other times as well.  So based on the fact that it's not just when our pets are asleep I'm severely leaning towards believing this is a learned thing.  However, even if it was happening only when they were asleep I think I'd still lean towards believing it's been learned because it's quite the coincidence in my opinion.  Especially when you now consider Piper is in her first year of life and is a different species!  I certainly believe Simon learned it from Cody as he didn't start sticking his tongue out until he was about 5 or 6 years old.  As he's aged it's become a more frequent thing.  Code-man passing on his wisdom by way of sticking his tongue out at the world!! LOL! Cracks me up that we have three pets that stick their tongues out!  Mommie's little sweet pea weirdos!
