Tarcil in the Fruit Bowl

Tarcil LOVES fruit!  I let him sit in the fruit bowl, and he immediately tried to eat the banana.  He seemed a little frustrated that he couldn't get it open.  He was very close to being successful which I discovered later when I noticed all the teeth marks on the skin of the banana.  :)

Tarcil eating his Treats

I had to hold the treat in my hand so that Tarcil wouldn't try to cram the whole thing into his cheek at once.  As you can see, he was tugging at the treat with all of his strength to get it out of my hand.  What a silly little guy!  By the way, he is actually a lot stronger than you might think...  :)

Tarcil the Artist

I always have so much fun coming up with ideas to show you all just how awesome Tarcil is!  He brings me so much joy!  It is my hope that I can spread some cheer onto anyone who sees these pictures and videos of him.  :)

Look at that face!  I love when he scrunches up his face!!

If you have any ideas or requests for a photo shoot of Tarcil, let me know!

Tarcil among Beatrix Potter figurines

Sometimes it can be so comforting to look back and remember your childhood.  As a child, I was obsessed with Beatrix Potter's books.  And I still love her works today!  I have a little collection of mugs, plates, and figurines in addition to my large collection of books.  Tarcil enjoyed sniffing them and pushing them out of his way so he could wander around the table.  :)

Tarcil with Penny's toys

I couldn't resist doing this!  This little basket is how I attempt to keep all of Penny's toys together instead of lost under the couches.  Tarcil fits pretty nicely in the basket and almost blends in with the cat toys.  :)

Just to be clear, I do NOT let the kitty play with the hamster.  :)

Tarcil on a Mirror

Happy Veterans Day!

I am so thankful for all the men and women who have served and are currently serving in so many different capacities all over the world!  "Thank you" really doesn't even begin to describe my gratitude for you all!  I especially want to give a shout out to my awesome brother in law who is currently serving in the Navy.  I love you and miss you Quinn!!  :)

I know that me posting pictures of my hamster doesn't really do any justice for today in honoring our veterans in the way that they deserve, but Tarcil is super cute and maybe these pictures of him can bring a little extra cheer to someone.  :)  I decided to stick Tarcil on a mirror because I wanted to see how he would react to seeing himself.  He didn't seem to notice at all.  He was too interested in watching what I was doing.  :)

Tarcil looks like he is smiling in this picture!  I love it!  :)

Tarcil using the Chromebook

Tarcil likes working with me.  :)  I love having him with me while I work, but he is terribly distracting.  I mean, he is just so cute and fuzzy!  :)
