So I'm lying on the couch, feeding Arrowroot cookies to the kidlets. Macula
stands at the gate at the end of the couch, looking pathetic (I'm starving,
don't you see me?). After two cookies each, the boys each take their third
cookie to the gate and feed them to Pupster. Little fingers holding big
cookies, plenty of room for the the big-tongue-and-teeth acquisition method
of treat taking :-)

Rugrats are bored with Arrowroots, so we switch to tiny Goldfish Crackers:
one for Chris, one for Alex, one for puppy, one for me, lather, rinse,
repeat. Then Alex decides to feed his cracker to Macula. Little fingers,
litte cracker, no room for big teeth to take treat: Pupster is licking
cracker with big tongue, trying to shift its position. Except Alex gets
bored and eats the cracker instead: Poor Big-Tooth-Puppy (insert insincere
sigh here) ;-)
