Date Night!

Can you believe Leon slept from 11pm until 6am this morning??!!! He screamed up until 11, but was good for the rest of the night. I'm so glad. My son and his wife REALLY needed the sleep...

This photo is from last spring, 2011.

As you may know, Meri is planning on breeding her Golden's again this spring. And as luck would have it, Ellie went into season just over a week ago. The howling started yesterday. DUKE! I was in my office and I heard it. DANG! So I decided, why not? I put both dogs in the yard.

Let me just say... it's probably too early because they haven't got a clue...

That seemed to settle them down a little bit though and the rest of the evening, both dogs were somewhat fine in the house except for a lot of sniffing.

So at 2am, the howling began again. I will NOT let that dog wake up the baby! So after hearing the first howl, I said a bad word and climbed out of bed. Hubs didn't know what was going on but I had woken him up and apparently he couldn't get back to sleep. *sorry hon!*

I put the Goldens outside again. They were still clueless...

Oh well.

I slept on the couch thinking I'd wake up when I hear the baby cry and that will be my reminder to bring the dogs back in. As I mentioned before, Leon slept until 6. I happened to wake up at 5 and brought them in to their kennels, then went back to bed myself.

Today's going to be long day...

How'd you sleep?

Like a baby?

(SUCH a bad comparison... slept a little, cried a little, wet myself, slept some more...)
