Beauty and the beast

My grandma and grandpa went on a little vacation this past week and I told them that i would babysit their little dog belle. Im thinking hey the thing maybe weighs 4 lbs and doesn't do a whole lot..how hard could this be. I now sit here half awake due to the fact that this dog hasn't allowed me to have a good nights sleep since i've been watching her. she doesn't sleep well unless she is in bed with you (which i am not a fan of) and instead of just curling up and going to sleep....she runs around the bed for a good 20 min until she finds where she wants to sleep. then once she fines her oh so coveted sleeping destination she lays down and manages to groom herself for another hour. this involves lots of licking herself and nibbling at her grubby little toes ...gross. after a while we will both fall asleep and then soon enough Belle decides that this place she has slept for the past 3 hours is no longer comfortable and moves her little body to the most inconvenient places possible....then starts her whole routine all over again. Dear little belle....you're really sweet and all, but i can't wait till you go back to your real mom and i can get some real sleep.

                              obviously the look of pure joy having this in my bed in the morning

p.s. i think this officially reminded me that i am so not ready for children yet
