When did we get a dog?

Having grown up with an incredible dog, Hercules, and now my brother's dog, Jake, I am used to having a friend when I ate. Herk was quick to appear whenever he heard someone in the kitchen. He wanted to see if he could get a free meal.

Lately, Lucas has been doing the same thing. On Sunday I was cutting watermelon. I turned around and lo and behold, Lucas had come into the kitchen and was standing next to me, looking for a handout. He is so quiet, I didn't realize he was there. With the dogs you at least had some warning-whether it be from their nails on the floor or their tags. It gave me a good laugh. At least I didn't make him sit and give me paw to get some fresh melon:)

He managed to get blackberries, french bread sticks and pretzels off of me this weekend in addition to the watermelon-you can say a lot of things about my son but you can't say that he doesn't like to eat!
