This N That

I was so tired yesterday. My son woke me up twice the night before because he had a nightmare. I knew I had a day of running my oldest a few places, so I just wanted to sleep in a little. Paisley is usually really good about sleeping when I sleep. Not yesterday. She was running around and getting into any little thing she could find. It has been awhile since we have had a puppy and usually Paisley is so good that I can almost forget she's still a puppy. Yesterday morning she reminded me. I finally gave her a chew toy and tucked her beside me for awhile.

Today we went to get my hair cut and ran to one store to grab something. I guess being still that long allowed her to store up some energy. She and Miley were chasing each other all around the house. Our floors are a little slick so every once in awhile one of them does what I call the cartoon run. They try to build up some speed but just end up running in place. They love to play together. We are lucky that Miley is very gentle.

We took Miley to obedience school when she was very young. She was taught the command gentle when taking food from your hand, and she is so smart that you can tell her to be gentle in other ways and she will. Paisley is so trusting when they play that she will sometimes stick her whole head in Miley's mouth. A little gross if  you ask me. It reminds me of the man sticking his head in the lions mouth.

I think everyone is getting a bit of cabin fever. It is so hot and humid that it makes it hard to get outside as much as we would like. I love summer but I am starting to look forward to fall.
