Dog Sitting

This weekend Deannie and Dean asked us to dog sit for them while they went off on some wild and crazy camping weekend in Maine. I was SO EXCITED! Since Eric was going to be busy with working on the garage and the gig that meant Casey was all mine! Casey and I have a lot in common, especially now that I'm in my 9th month.

1. Casey really likes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and I really like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
2. Casey likes four hour naps and I like four hour naps
3. Casey likes to lay around the house all day in the air conditioning and I like to lay around the house and do nothing in the air conditioning.

Another thing I appreciate about Casey is that when she thinks it's time to take a nap she expects EVERYONE to take a nap. So she'll whine until you do so and therefore I am FORCED to nap with her on command several times a day. It's hard work but someone's got to do it!

One thing we do differ in is the need for exercise. She likes at least one walk a day and, I'm sure you're not surprised, I do not. To be a good hostess I did put on my flip flops and take her out for one short-ish walk a day. Amazing how I waited until my 9th month to exercise! Ha!

We just got back from our last walk together and I decided to "map my run" on http://www.mapmyrun.com/ to see how far we actually went. I was mega impressed with myself when I realized that Casey and I did a little over a half a mile a day. Altogether we did 1.7 miles. Not bad for a big pregnant momma!

I'm proud and I'd write more but Casey says it's time for a nap!
