Miss Molly

This post has been sitting in my draft box for quite some time now! I decided to go ahead and finish it up and post already!

I have actually shaved Molly again since these pictures. Her hair grows insanely fast.

I got Molly when Matt and I had been dating for only a few months. She has been around for it all. She was just a fluffy little puppy then.

Now, of course, she would be a wolf dog if I didn't shave her!

We have had our struggles with Molly over the years. She was so wild and hard to control when she was younger, and she had some health issues as a puppy. 

But sweet little Molly just keeps getting better with age.

She hates baths, but once she is locked in the bathroom and the water is running, she hops right in the tub without being prompted.

However, when we travel she still acts a fool! But c'mon now, she IS a dog!

She is downright spoiled, but no where close to prissy. 

Our rotten Molly has no idea what is about to happen to her little life!

I am not worried about her hurting the baby when he gets here. We also don't see her becoming his protector. Mostly we envision her completely ignoring the new screaming little wiggly thing (after a few initial sniffs). 

I am sure she will adjust just fine. And in a few years they can be best buddies. : )

Busy Week!

This week has really felt non-stop, go-go-go!

It probably wouldn't feel as busy if I wasn't pregnant, but I am!

The house started out clean when we went to bed on Sunday night, by today it was another story! I am spending my afternoon trying to get it whipped back into shape!

Monday: I worked that morning and I am having issues remembering that night... I know I ate something, but I can't remember what it was! On days that I work I am pretty useless in the evening. 

Tuesday: Molly had her annual vet appointment in the morning for her shots. I was so paranoid that something was going to be wrong with her. I think that was my pregnant hormones shining. Luckily, she received a clean bill of health! Whew! 

That afternoon I organized and took inventory in the pantry, then made a grocery run. Matt was at work so it also involved unloading and putting-away by myself. If you have been to our apartment you know it is a bit of a hike from the parking lot to our front door. I also cooked supper that night!

Wednesday: I worked again, and cooked again! I really planned on cleaning the kitchen before checking out for the night, but the energy simply wasn't there.

Thursday(today!): This morning I had my 32 week dr. appointment. I only gained three pounds since my last appointment, four weeks ago. BOOM! Haha, I was so proud of myself. My dr. said that I should keep the rest of my weight gain from here to the end to under 10 pounds. If I follow the general one pound a week rule, that shouldn't be a problem. I am eating healthy and staying active, and (besides a bit of heartburn) feeling really great!

Right now the dishwasher, washing machine, and dryer are running (hello electricity bill!). I plan on cooking again tonight, and I really want to make some oatmeal cookies! But we will just wait and see how it plays out.

Friday: I work again tomorrow, but this time I will close. I don't have to be at work until 4, but I will probably sleep in and take it pretty easy all day. The evenings are when I am the most worn out, so I don't want to use up all of my energy before I get to work!

Saturday: Childbirth Class! From 9-5. I am so excited about this class! I cannot wait to see the hospital and learn more about their policies. We signed up for the class online several weeks ago. We never received an email or anything in the snail mail, so I started to worry that we weren't actually registered. This afternoon I called to confirm, and we were NOT signed up!!! I am so glad I listened to my worries on that one! I gave them all of our info and paid over the phone. Now we are good to go for Saturday. I can't wait!

I can't wait to see what next week will bring! Maybe a day with NO obligations!? We shall see!
