I’m Raising a Puppy

       

The other morning after I’d hit snooze one too many times, I was rushing to get ready in time to make my early morning meeting that I always seem to have scheduled on mornings such as these. I threw on my clothes, put on my left shoe and, alas, my right shoe was nowhere to be found. I hobbled all around the house at 6:02 in the morning looking for my shoe (aka Kallie’s favorite toy) trying to be as quiet and discrete as possible, which can be a task for me – just ask Josh, the more doors slammed and foot stomps the better – yet it was nowhere to be found. At this moment, it dawned on me that I was, in fact, raising a puppy.

10 reasons my baby is actually a puppy:

1. She chews on everything: my shoes, blankets, fingers, blocks, balls, you name it. If it fits, she will chew.
2. Her favorite chew toy is my shoe and she moves them everywhere.
3. She pees on me unintentionally.
4. She eats food that’s fallen on the floor before I can pick it up.
5. She gets really excited anytime someone walks in the door and her head perks up to see who it is.
6. We clap and reward her every time she does a trick.
7. She’s cute and cuddly and has a lot of rolls.
8. She follows us everywhere we go.
9. She loves to give kisses.
10. She is so lovable and makes everyone happy when they are around her!

 

What does your baby do that is puppy-esque?!
