I thought it might be fun to keep a "diary" of sorts while you're gone, so that even though you're missing Sammy and Sophie, you don't have to miss out on what they're up to.
Soon after you left, Sammy could be found waiting at the door.
Pepito the wild man hasn't stopped. I let him out to run around in the backyard (no one else wanted out, except Daisy), and when I came back in S&S were nowhere to be found. I went on a BT round-up, and found them where you'd suggested they might seek refuge...under your bed!
Daisy sought out the sun, and is resting in Sydney's room.
Pepito would still like to be patrolling the neighborhood, but I bet he calms down to sleep soon!
