Never a Dull Moment!

Today Axel managed to get into the forbidden corner of the house...the corner behind the couch with the Rubber Plant. We have the poisonous plant behind the couch with the only entry to it blocked by a footstool with a stack of books on top. We're trying to avoid the reaction that Lillie had last fall when she chewed on the poisonous leaves (see pics below). Anyway, Axel was so thrilled when he discovered he could climb on the couch, slide down the armrest, and be in no-man's-land.

Lillie's hives from chewing on a Rubber Plant leaf.











While I'm picking up the basket of books that Axel knocked over in his excitement the house becomes eerily quiet. I knew Axel was in the other forbidden area of the house...the office. Not even four minutes from the time he climbed behind the couch he is sitting at the computer practicing his keyboarding skills.

15 Minutes later and he needs to refuel. I am glad the two little monkeys chose to have their snack in the deacon's bench. It gives me a little break because Axel can't get out alone!
