        Hopscotch has a bunch of really cute habits but some of my favorite are when any time he hears the fridge open he comes sprinting into the kitchen because he thinks he is getting greens or a treat. He will stand in front of the door so that i cannot close the fridge until he gets what he wants.

          Powder plays chase in the morning, which is really cute. He’ll binky spring across the room and that is his invitation to chase him. Stickers loves to stand up and look around at everything, every day she stands on her hind legs at least a few times a day. It’s soooo cute when they stand up.

            She nudges me in the butt.

            In addition, if she wants pets (and if I’m laying on the ground) she puts her nose under my hand.

              I think it’s adorable that the only thing Otto chins is one corner of one specific box. My theory is that he saw Hannah doing it (she does it all the time) and started imitating her, but he doesn’t seem to have any idea what he’s doing – he just does it out of habit now every time he passes that box. lol

              Hannah likes to sit on the top of the maze haven and survey her kingdom. It’s so cute.

              Hannah’s new habit is running for the stairs first thing in the morning. Today was the second day in a row she’s made it up there. lol We’ve been using a box as a barrier, but DH doesn’t like to put it up and she sneaks past while he’s not watching. Apparently she was running around my bedroom this morning with DH trying to get her out and I slept through it all.

                I forgot to mention: My dad said that this morning, he put pellets in his hand, and Chacha bun kept on nudging his hand.. haha

                  Elrohwen: I remember that story about Otto; that’s so cute!

                   

                  When I go into the bedroom at night to get ready for bed, Hodari will usually just glance at me like she couldn’t care less, but then she’ll suddenly do a head binky and spring over to the door of her cage so I can kiss her goodnight. It always makes me laugh because she seems so disinterested, but it’s like she’s teasing me because then she does this big, silly, shrugging “head binky.”   Like: “Hmm, all right. I guess I’ll let you kiss me, Mom!”

                   

                  When she gets out of her cage in the morning, she surveys the entire bedroom and bathroom for any changes. If anything is different from the day before, like the laundry basket has been moved, or something, she tip-toes around the area until she’s sure everything is safe. Also, if she hears a noise that startles her, like my DH blowing his nose or the phone ringing, she’ll do a head binky as soon as she realizes she’s heard that sound before. It’s as is she’s sighing in relief, and saying “Oh, silly me!”

                    Silly, I love when they tip-toe!! Hannah is the queen of tip-toeing around new areas and it’s so funny.

                      Stormy and his super kisses. I say “super” because he gives like a million of them at once. He also does these little head binkies and zooms back and forth on the couch so fast it makes me laugh.

                      Whenever Olivia gets a new toy or a big, exciting piece of lettuce or dandelion she runs in her house and hoards it in her loot pile. She has a big pile of toys there, she doesn’t really play with them, she just hoards them. Also her twisty binkies. Sometimes when she’s out playing she will pick something up (a new toy, a pen she stole, or even a piece of paper) and run around the room with it in her mouth. It’s so funny because she’s not really sure what to do with it, she just runs around. The funniest was when I gave her a bunny-sized tambourine and she was making music as she ran.

                      Right before Bindi flops, he always does a little “dig dig dig” on the floor. I also love when he nudges me for attention. And the spontaneous “popcorn” binkies he’s famous for.

                        LPT, Otto does the dig-dig-dig-flop thing too! Haha

                        Hannah sounds like Olivia with picking things up and running around with them. The other day she picked up Stuffy and ran all over the dining room with him, then dragged him into the living room. lol

                        I forgot to mention Hannah’s “fat girl binkies”. She’s not really fat, at least not according to the vet, but she’s a solid girl and she looks hilarious when she binkies – like she can hardly get into the air but she’s trying so hard. Haha
