"Mom, I can't find my socks!"

Like most households, we have a sock issue. There always seems to be atleast one missing!

Lately, Jessica seems to be losing more and more socks. We can always find one, but not the other. These mysterious things that resembled socks started popping up around the backyard. Belle, Cinderella and Ariel had taken a trip that Walt Disney never had intended. (Definitely not an E ticket ride) They had been ingested by one of Jessica's four legged brothers. Richard and I figured it couldn't be Fenway because he is such a priss and it had to be the gut buster Max.

These mysterious packages had disappeared for awhile until today. We were in the living room when we heard the most obnoxious belch. We looked and saw Max...and what appeared to be a sock. A sock that belonged to Jessica. I asked Richard if he thought I could get the sock clean, more of a challenge than anything. We both agreed,it wasn't worth the effort, so to the trash it went. (Please note, I would not have had Jessica wear it-it was just this totally cool Halloween festive green color that seemed challenging)

So the mystery of the sock culprit was solved. It was Max. We were amazed that he did not choke or get it stuck in his intestines. It is strange that it has been awhile since any of these have surfaced. I think it is because he has eaten all of the Disney socks. As Neighbor Jenn pointed out, he is a true Delgado-Martinez. He too wanted a piece of Disney. I quickly pointed out that the Martinez side had him "let it go," as like Richard, he can only handle Disney for a short time before he to needs to let it go.

Peace and pick up your socks!

I know socks go missing in the laundry, but in the belly of your super cute boy, Max?! =) He has good taste...gotta give him that!
