Where’s Perry?

If it’s Tuesday this must be, Random Tuesday Thoughts. It’s brought to you by Keely at The Un-Mom. She really knows how to rock Tuesdays so go and check her out and tell her the Blue Monkey Butt sisters sent you!

It’s official, I’ve officially lost my mind. Friday night we were overwhelmed with incredible cuteness and came home with a puppy. We weren’t planning on another dog. My husband swore we would never have another dog, ever. But now we are the proud owners of the cutest puppy ever. So not only do we have a St. Bernard mix and a Lab/Chow mix, we now have a Shih-tzu/Pomeranian mix. 

Meet Perry!  

Yes, Perry. Yes, the kids go around saying “Where’s Perry?” “Oh, there you are Perry.”   

How can you resist that face? Even my husband couldn’t and he’s really good at resisting adorable animals. Having a puppy is a lot like having a new baby in the house. Except for the diapers.  Housebreaking a puppy isn’t the easiest thing. So far he’s only had one accident in the house and that was in the kitchen for easy clean-up. He’s considerate like that. I’m afraid I’m going to turn into one of those women who carry their dogs with them everywhere and dress them up in clothes. Please somebody stage an intervention if that happens. The kids already expect me to make him a Perry the Platypus costume. Right, in my spare time.   

That reminds me, I haven’t even started making the kid’s Halloween costumes. J-Man hasn’t decided what he wants to be. I think that’s the plan for tomorrow since he’ll be home sick from school anyway. So much for having the day to myself to take a nap.

 I would have to agree, Elle definitely has the cutest puppy ever!!  I want a super cute puppy now!  I have puppy envy!  My dog just snores and whines!!  

 I really wonder why my freezer doesn’t have a light bulb in it!  Do you know how hard it is to see the ice cream in the freezer at 1am?  Well I do, and it’s really hard!   

 I’m really getting sick of being asked questions.  When did I become the all knowing Oracle?  It’s really annoying!  

 Halloween is coming up this month (duh!), and I really want to dress up.  The only problem is, I don’t have a Halloween Party to go to, and if I dress up while bringing the kids trick or treating, I will be that weird Mom who dresses up on Halloween.  And of course the boys will probably complain that I would embarrass them anyways!  

 High heeled shoes have a time limit.  After about 9 hours in 3 1/2 ” heels, you need to take them off or risk not being able to walk the next day…just sayin’
