Drake has this new thing where he wakes up between 5:30 - 6:30 every morning. EVERY morning. For some reason, he did not get the memo that us Wienerts sleep in on the weekends. It is probably my fault, due to the fact that I wake up at 6:25 every weekday morning for work and he is on an automatic schedule...but I really wish he would find the joy in sleeping in as much as we do.
And Kylie. Good ole' Kylie. Besides the occassional backyard escape and curtain rip, she does not cause much trouble; however, she will randomly wake up in the middle of the night and pace the hardwood floors while whining. We still have not figured out what triggers this, but we believe it is usually because she hears something outside. It is hard to be mad at her for trying to protect us.
And last night, the two dogs and their habits were working together. Nate and I were up from 2:15 - 3:30 with Kylie, then back up with Drake at 5:30, and then my alarm lovingly went off at 6:25. Now I realize that things could be worse...but with the combination of my working out and never receiving a full night's sleep, my body is crying out for some much-needed fuel.
One of these days, I would like to just lay in bed all day and sleep. No exercise, no work, no worries, jus
t sleep. Good, old fashioned sleep.

when we got our dog, before we had kids, we often joked that the dog helped prepare us for being parents. she forced us to be responsible for the well being of someone else, we always had to feed and care for her and clean up after her, and yes even get up all night with her sometimes ...
so maybe this is just good ol' preparation for having kids someday?? =)
Cats do the SAME exact thing, it's so annoying. Saturday night into Sunday it got SO bad that I went and closed the door into one of our spare bedrooms so I could have a good nights sleep!
I guess now we know what it's going to be like to get up with babies someday... Ugh!
To bad y'all didn't get a dachshund. His name could have been "wienert the wiener dog."
