I'm not sure if this is an advanced level of "treating the baby niblings the same way I treat pets" or an advanced level of tired, but I keep slow blinking at Teddy when she makes eye contact with me
she's like 2 and a half, so she's about as smart as Lily, it checks out???
Lily isn't that smart but not because she's a cat
Teddy is definitely a lot better at communicating the specifics of what she wants
update: "she's like two and a half" actually she's turning 2 in February, I forgot which toddler was older between Anya and Teddy
Anya turned two like a week ago and the other day when told not to mess with a cough drop she found she held direct eye contact with me as she swatted it off the table like a cat with a fucking water glass
