Creepy Crawler Visitor

The last day that Mary was visiting, I was cleaning the house for Thanksgiving dinner and she was sitting outside with Charlotte reading her some books. I had opened the windows in the dining room for Max to sit and creep on them. Well, one of the windows had a lizard in between the window and the screen. Max found it within a few minutes and all hell broke loose :)

 Max would not let the creepy lizard out of his sight. At one point it flew across the room when it bit his paw and he flung it. It almost hit Mary. SCARY.

 After multiple attempts with different bowls, Mary finally was able to trap the lizard under a bowl.

Max was NOT happy that she did that.

 We heard a noise in the dining room. The lizard was moving the bowl and Max was starting to pick up the bowl with his claw. So, we added a book.

The initial part of the lizard incident began around 4:30. Alex gets off of work at 8 so we had to leave it under the bowl until then.

 Alex called from work and said he was going to be late. He ended up getting home an hour and a half late... the poor little creepy amphibian was trapped under the bowl for 5  hours.

 Alex created a plan so that he wouldn't have to touch the lizard.

 He's such a smart, crafty little man!

 Yes, we videod like all of it. It was all hilarious.

 Max is hilarious. Look how big his tail is :)

Max is ready to stab someone here. He is so mad that Alex let the lizard go. He didn't speak to us for a week after the lizard incident.

Oh how I hate creepy things like that. I was so proud of Mary for stepping up to the plate and getting the bowl on top of the lizard.
