Hi Raine! Arabella here! You sound like just like me! My mommy would keep telling everyone that my big brother and sister were never as ornery as I was. She still tells everyone I'm the "bad dog", tho' I have gotten a lot better. Grandma even said so!
Mom also said she was glad they hadn't put in new carpet before I came along. I thought I had done a good job breaking in the old one. We did get new carpet after I tore a hole in the old one. It wasn't my fault, honest! Mom was gone for a whole week at some place called a hospital, and I just didn't understand why she couldn't come home and be with me.
I also used to eat a lot of things I wasn't suppose to. One time I got my sisters bottle of pills and ate them all! They had some great beef flavoring on them. Mom still doesn't know how I got them, and I'm not telling either. My mom had to buy some stuff called ipecac and give it to me. That stuff really tasted bad and then it made my tummy really upset!
Oh! If you want to chew something and have some peace and quiet while chewing. I suggest under the bed. You gotta do that while you're small. Pretty soon you'll get too big to fit under there. I miss my special hidding place. Sometimes I will stick my head under there and wish I was still small enough to fit.
I'm glad you are keeping your new mom and dad so busy! They made get a bit upset now, but in a year or so they will tell someone about what you are doing now, and they will smile and laugh about it! Honest!
I'm sure you will soon learn to potty outside only. It really makes for a much happier mommy. I gotta go, it's dinner time and if I drool on mommy's keyboard she won't be happy.
