the other child

much to my surprise, i am not expecting my first child, but my second. over the past month, our puppy lulu has mysterously transformed into a human.

• animal planet is her favorite channel...as long as there are animals on the screen, she is captivated.
• her dog bed does not meet her standards....she must sleep on the same Egyptian Cotton sheets like the rest of us and her head must be rested on a pillow.
• after realizing that the pool is not a giant bathtub, she enjoys the outdoor pool life.
• she has separation anxiety when her mommy and daddy leave.

i'm hoping these animal behavior shows have a positive influence and helps her separation anxiety. Who needs the dog whisperer to come to the house when your dog will just watch him on tv?! please notice her rubber chicken. she loves her rubber chicken and brings it to bed with her....my bed mind you. poor callie finally caught on to lulu's high maintenance and expects to sleep in our bed as well. i'm about to set up camp on the couch! i thought callie, lulu, and at times jared, were supposed to be the ones in the dog house? something is seriously wrong with this picture and yet awfully cute at the same time!
