35 weeks

Lola has been going to doggie daycare about 2x/week and making many new friends. She got a report card that said she was very well behaved and loved treat time. It also said which dogs she enjoyed playing with the most. It makes me feel much better about leaving her. While she was at school I got to do a massive amount of grocery shopping, cooking and freezing. At the very least the freezer is ready for baby to come.

Lola also got a beautiful red light to clip onto her collar so that we can see where she is at night. she is the red blur that runs by the windows or is sitting on top of her house. One of these days someone is going to call NASA thinking the aliens have landed. We have been trying to get a video, but no such luck yet.

Baby is still hanging out and moving around quite a bit. Everyday it seems the baby is lower and lower, but still in there. The next dr apt isnt for over another week, so everyone's just hanging out.

We decided to give Lola a trial at sleep over doggie daycare so that she is used to staying over and knows that we will come back to get her. This way it wont be even more stressful for her when we leave here there while I am in the hospital and then she is coming home to a baby. Its very lonely here without Pesty Paws. They do not have office hours on sundays, so while she still gets to play with her friends, we can not go pick her up until the morning. While she is gone we have to reinforce the fence in the backyard as she dug up all the bricks from where she escapes under the fence, and ate all the ties from where she squeezes through the fence.


We continue to try and keep Lola off the couches. It continues to not be working very well. We decided to put sheets on the couch so that at the very least it would be easier to get all the doggie dirt off the couch. We also thought limiting the seating space available on the couch by piling on multiple pillows would do the trick. It did not. She instead throws the pillows across the room and peals back the sheets so that the couch will meet her standards. Before she went to daycare for the weekend she pulled the large couch cushions off and buried a half eaten rawhide gingerbread girl in the seat of the couch and covered it with one of the sheets and multiple throw pillows. At least she approves of them being used somehow.



Sometimes we cant find Lola.


She likes to snuggle herself.



35 weeks. The belly literally got bigger from the morning to the afternoon, and then even bigger one day when I was taking a nap. I woke up to hear - WOOOO THE BABY GOT BIG WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING !!!!

We were both pretty exhausted after a massive brunch at the Space Needle
