In Honor Of National Dog Day


I have a pregnancy pillow I'm rather fond of.  It's called a 'Boppy'.


Jesse, is also rather fond of the Boppy.


She naps on it.


Fights me for it.


Beats me to bed so she can lay on it, first.


I get up during the night no less than 27 times to use the potty.  Every time I come back to bed, Jesse, is on the Boppy.


We have bought her dog pillows.


Lots and lots of dog pillows.  She wanted non of them.


But THIS pillow... MY pillow...


It's the one.  Whomever has ever competed with a Standard Poodle for a pillow, please raise your hand.

Harriet's Leg Update


If you are one of the many people who prayed for my Harriet's leg, thank you.


The swelling has gone down significantly the last few months and looks much better.


Harriet has been learning how to use her leg again.  She limps, but not like before.  Her world is better.



In other news, there is a child, slash, alien, slash, parasite, slash, vampire growing in my stomach.  We're on month 4 together.  This person likes to elbow me right as I lay down to sleep at night. 


We bought Duckie jammy's for the little punk.  The feet are my favorite part.  If it's a girl, maybe I should name her 'Harriet'.  I'd sleep on it, but, you know.....child in the womb, elbows, movement, wide awake, that whole thing.
