Comparing Will, Reina and Trigger

Bites people:
Will - Only when provoked at preschool (one-time incident that was clearly self-defense. No really.)
Reina - Not that we know of.
Trigger - Yes. Absolutely. And toys, the sofa, the floor, the floor trim, toys, dolls, books, furniture, cups, plates, his water bowl, legos, grass, blankets, clothing, toothbrushes


Runs everywhere they go:
Will - Usually while in character as a knight, soldier, pirate, good guy, dinosaur, hunter
Reina - Definitely.
Trigger - 95% of the time.


Pretends they don’t understand commands/instructions:

Will - Getting better but still has selective hearing, especially if the answer is not one that he wants to hear.
Reina - See Will’s answer but increase the frequency 10-fold.
Trigger - Gets a blank stare on his face as if he’s meeting you for the first time and has no idea what language you are speaking.


Potty trained:
Will - Yes.
Reina - Somewhat.
Trigger - No.


Sleeps through the night:

Will - Somewhat. If the winds not blowing, stomach not hurting, or weird noise not being made within a 20-mile radius.
Reina - Somewhat. If winds not blowing, ears not hurting, and is snuggled up between mom and dad.
Trigger - Yes. Without a peep. Slightly early riser though.


Current favorite item:
Will - Little tiny Lego men dressed as knights that get lost every 15 minutes.
Reina - Her chupee.
Trigger - Reina’s chupee.


Wake-up time Saturday morning:
Will - 6:30 a.m.
Reina - 6:00 a.m.
Trigger - 5:30 a.m.


When they want to be snuggled:
Will - Only when not feeling well.
Reina - Only to avoid going to bed.
Trigger - After 8:30 p.m. but only if you are trying to type on the computer.
