So Monday's are not anyone's favorite day of the week in our house. Believe it not, we haven't set an alarm clock since The Roo was born. Recently, Baxter has been our alarm clock during the week. The lucky dog gets to sleep in bed with us and in return his responsibility is to make sure we get up on time for work. Usually around 6am he moves from being in the middle of the bed inbetween mommy and daddy over to mommys side of the bed, or depending on his mood, on top of mommy (yes, mommy loves this....sarcasm). But recently, Baxter has been sleeping in on Monday's and we haven't had a very reliable alarm clock.
On top of our reliable alarm clock becoming unreliable, The Roo has decided that Monday's are his least favorite day of the week. This is good and bad. It makes mommy and daddy feel good because we know he loves all the time and attention he gets with us on weekends, but makes us feel bad that we don't get to be home with him all week long. Maybe if Baxter got a day job and really worked to earn his keep one of us could stay home with The Roo.
So this morning mommy got up and got ready and decided that we really didn't want a repeat of last Monday. Last Monday daddy carried The Roo out of the house over his shoulder kicking and crying. He was over his shoulder to avoid the painful crab pinches that The Roo uses as his weapon of choice. Very very painful. So today, mommy made sure that The Roo had a sippy and snack ready and waiting. Funny enough, The Roo decided to sleep in, so when mommy went in to wake him, he was in a lovey mood. We took him downstairs and as we were getting him dressed, he said, night night, night night. Poor Roo, just wanted to go back to bed. Who can blame him, wouldn't you rather sleep than have a Monday!
