Day 29: Lazy Saturday Mornings

There's nothing better on a Saturday morning than waking up to this face...

I'm assuming that's exactly how mommies feel when their little babies come tottering into the room looking for kisses, breakfast or cartoons.  Or possibly how all you married folks feel when you can wake up, roll over and look into the eyes of another human being.

But alas...I don't have that luxury...  ::sigh::

But that's OK, because for the time being, I don't need it.  I have this to wake up to.

And how can you not love that face?  Granted, she's been known to have some interesting methods of waking me up...from sitting on my forehead so that she can get a better view of what's out the window...to putting her back two paws on my hips and her front two paws on my shoulders, and lowering her little snout so it's about a millimeter above my nose, and then doing nothing but breathe and struggle (terribly) to keep her balance (and this happens, oh, you know...every time she's hungry, thirsty, needs to go potty, or desperate for attention from her snoozing mother).  Oh! And how could I forget?  When my incredibly plush, soft and comfy mattress just won't cut it, or her 3 different dog beds don't fit the bill, she likes to lay across my face.  Go ahead, mull that one over.  She literally lays across my face.  Try being sound asleep when a 40 pound furball plops on top of you.  Or waking up and seeing nothing but a sea of doggy nipples.  Ha.

But I love it!  (Not in that way you perv...seriously.)

I really do love it.  She's my dogter, my little peanut.  She dresses up for ugly sweater parties (with the help of mom)...

Nerdy Janie :)

Waits by the back door for me to come home...

Mama...is that you?

And smothers me in kisses every chance she gets...

My New Year's Smooch. It wasn't when the ball dropped...but it was the thought that counted ;)

She's my sweet little DOGter, and there's nothing better on a lazy Saturday morning (or Thursday morning in my jacked up schedule), than waking up to this little angel.

My sweet baby J.  I love you, and our lazy Saturday (Thursday - ha!) mornings together.

And I'm thankful for you...but you probably already know that, because your head has been resting on the back of my hand since I started typing this.

Ha. Thanks J, I appreciate the challenge ;)
