our new friends.

When Zac and I went to Ikea yesterday, we found these two little foxes in a bin, and decided to bring them home with us. Everyone, please meet Fantastic Mr. Fox and Ash.

Ash likes to watch Zac while he's doing homework.

And Mr. Fox likes to help and whisper the answers into Zac's ears.

Sometimes Mr. Fox will sit in the chair and enjoy a cup of coffee, while Ash climbs the Christmas tree and tries to sneak a candy cane.

One time, Mr. Fox was watching Animal Planet on the couch, and he got so excited that they were doing a feature on foxes and he managed to get himself stuck in between the cushions!

Mr. Fox likes to help me bake cookies every now and then, but doesn't listen to me when I ask him to be sanitary.

And afterward, when I do dishes, Ash likes to make sure the water temperature is just right.

Ash also likes to drink milk, and will sometimes guard it so Mr. Fox doesn't steal it.

So Mr. Fox helps himself to the crackers, instead.

And then checks his email.

After Ash takes a long bubble bath, he'll hop in the dryer for a few minutes to dry himself.

And then he and Mr. Fox will snuggle up and go to sleep for the night.
