Foot Licker

So, I don't have any new pictures to post, but I have a hilarious story! Drew, Gracie and I went out to Irvine today. The shelter was having a big pet adoption event where over 40 rescues and shelters were represented. We were hoping to come home with a boxer dog. Unfortunately, the boxer rescue was out of dogs! They only brought 5 with them and they were gone within the first hour. Since there were no doggies to add to the Lorenger family, we left pretty quickly.

Gracie lives in sandals these days. While we were driving home, she got upset and wanted her sandals off. I was driving, so Drew reached back and removed her shoes. Seconds later, she was crying and pointing at the bottoms of her feet. Drew couldn't see anything other than a few blades of grass and dirt. He asked, "Is it because they're dirty?" Gracie stopped crying and said, "Kay." That means yes. Drew licked his hands (ew) and wiped off her feet. Problem solved! Within minutes, we hear Gracie making strange noises that sounded like she was licking an ice cream cone. We looked back...Grace was licking the bottoms of her feet! She was very focused in her task and made sure equal attention was paid to both feet. All I can say is thank goodness I am not your typical high-strung first time mom! Foot licking, lovely!

  1. Awe, bummed you weren't able to get a boxer and that we weren't home! You, Gracie, and Drew could have stopped by our house when you were in Irvine!! Unfortunately, we were stuck on an airplane!
