July 17- Puppy Class

When my friend taught her son sign language, I thought that she had officially gone off of the deep end, but now I think that I have gone off the deep end. I have currently taught Reagan "more", "please" and "milk". She kind of likes it and thinks of it more as a game than a form of communication. It's pretty darn cute when we are reading our bedtime book and she signs "more" to read more books.

Today was Molly's first day of Puppy class. We thought that it was important that we both attend each session, so we are having my Mom watch Reagan. There are a total of 2 other puppies in the class. One is a miniature labardoodle and one is a chocolate lab. They are both super tiny compared to Molly, which Molly takes full advantage of. The chocolate lab was tiny, but he thought he was pretty "tough" until Molly trampled on him with her one paw!  We learned  how to use the clicker, "watch me' and "sit". Molly did really good, but she had some definite ADHD. She watched us for the trick, but as soon as she got her treat, she was off looking for the other puppies. It was so embarrassing cause she kept jumping on the other owners. We REALLY need to have people over more so that she learns not to jump on them. Our trainer is super sweet and she didn't even bat an eye to our naughty little puppy.

Tomorrow is my day off...but not really. Reagan will be going to the babysitter so that I have time to get ourselves ready for our "big" trip. I need to buy some breakfast and snack items, finish the laundry, pack our bags and clean up the house (cause my brother is going to be staying here with Molly) My plan is to TRY to get to the pool for a bit to get some rays and even try to hit the gym. If my husband is lucky, I will even make dinner...maybe!
