Go, Simon, go!

It was cute--I captured River trying to teach Simon how to walk on the linoleum floor.  She patiently kept walking back and forth across it, then would stop and look at Simon as if asking him to follow her.  It's like she's saying, "You can do it!"
For those just joining us, here's the link to an earlier post about Simon being afraid of walking on slippery floors:  The bane of Simon's existence.
Simon decided to approach this new flooring from a different angle thinking that it would be easier to walk on from this direction.  Here, River is making her way back to the carpet as Simon army crawls his way forward.
Well, this is as far as he was willing to go this time.
Simon also learned that you can't try to turn quickly on a slippery floor because it makes you do a belly flop followed by a cartoon-style running in place maneuver until traction is attained and forward momentum is achieved.
The little guy is getting brave here and is attempting his new skill on the kitchen floor.  Still a bit shaky, but this is the first time he's tried walking on this type of floor since we moved in.  Oh yeah, here's a video of his achievement...



Follow me!

We're done playing upstairs.  It's time to go downstairs now, little human.  Follow me!
Are you still following us?  Hurry up!
I decided to mess with them a bit and sat down on the second landing.  Simon is trying to push my leg down while River is trying to stick her head up my pant leg (not sure how she thinks that's going to help).
I let Simon push my one leg down and now River is pushing my other leg down with her chin.
Come on!  We need to go down these stairs now.
You know we need a chaperone wherever we go and you're it.  We want to go downstairs and play.  Now, please.
Whew!  Who knew that herding humans was so exhausting?!

Bunnies: Nature's clowns.


Music:  "Yakety Sax" by Boots Randolph
After watching some of Simon and River's antics, I just had to make a video to this music.  Hope you like it!
On that note, we hope you have a great weekend and we'll be back on Monday!

Time to clean!

I felt a bit bad about yesterday's less than flattering photo of River, so I hope this one is cute enough to make up for it.

Ah, brotherly love...

Simon gives River the bunny version of a wet willy.  I love how her little face is all scrunched up while she's trying to shake her head.  It's like she's saying, "Ewww, Simon!"
I'm thinking it's payback for the whole "capture the couch" incident earlier today.
