over-exaggerated yawning!

sometime lily will do this really dramatic yawn. i call it her 'eastenders' yawn as it is so over the top to her normal yawn!

she will throw her head back and also make this whiney noise when she does it. she usually does it if she's excited, like in the back of the car, or if she's a bit cold.

does anyone else have a little drama king or queen with this habit?

Both my girls do it. I call it their attention seeking yawn as it usually happens when they think I should be doing something to amuse them!!!

jake does this first thing in the morning if we go out for our first walk at the back of 6. otherwise he doesnt, although he does sometimes yawn over my arm. im convinced he is trying to cover his mouth, he is such a polite boy

hollys a real diva, she over exaggerates everything,

she throws herself down rather than laying down, you name it she can make it into a real drama.
