This illustration by Gemma Correll made me laugh! We have a white, fluffy version of a chastity pug nicknamed “Briscoe the Abstinence Dog.” He usually sleeps in his dog bed on the floor of our bedroom, but sometimes he just wants to cuddle. His preferred spot? Right between me and JB, of course. In the middle of the night he’ll move to the foot of the bed on my side, and I’ll wake up with cramps in my legs from sleeping in the fetal position. God forbid I accidentally kick the dog in my sleep!
What do you have going on this weekend?
Tomorrow morning is my long-awaited haircut, and in the afternoon I’ll be live-tweeting two Graco events in honor of their latest SnugRide car seat launch. If you live locally, you should come out to the Omaha Babies R Us and be a part of the festivities. Graco will be giving away one free SnugRide Click Connect 40 (the only newborn to two-year infant car seat) at each session! Equally exciting, you’ll get to meet me!
If you’re unable to attend, you can still learn about the new SnugRide by following my tweets. I’ll be using the hashtag #GracoSafety.
