Why I don't call her cute

This week we are dog-sitting my brother's dog. My husband told me that I am more affectionate to my brother's dog than ours. He thought that it hurt Lilly's feelings to hear me call my brother's dog "cute and cuddly". I immediately told him that my brother's dog is needy and requires the extra attention. Lilly is independent and doesn't need the extra attention. He left, shaking his head.
Shortly there after, I looked over and there was Lilly, playing with her ducky. And that's why I don't call her "cute".

A Sunny Saturday of Work

Off to help a friend with moving into their new house.
I thought I would give a smile today. Several people have said how cute the Puppy and Kitten are. I don't won't you all fooled. As we speak, Ranger is in Kitty time out for knocking my sewing scissors off the table (for the tenth time) and into Lilly's waiting mouth. They are 8 months (Ranger) and 6.5 months (Lilly) and love to get into trouble together.
Here is the cute picture from below, and a second picture taken just moments later...
