Last week was a busy week for me. I wish my body didn’t require sleep so I could get a lot more done with everything!

The highlight of the week was that I went to a Zumba class on Tuesday night. A friend of mine went with me and we had so much fun! I went again on Thursday and definitely will be going 2 times a week now. I’m not a dancer and not an expert but what makes it great is that I know I’m not the only one in the room that doesn’t get some of the moves. But I’m determined to get there and be shakin’ my booty the right way!

My mom went to Zumba with me on Thursday and she told me afterwards that she didn’t do Zumba, Zumba did her. Whatever! She would rather exercise in front of the TV at home in private anyways. I have some more girlfriends who are interested in going to class and even my sister too so it’ll be fun!

I know Missa Lee is going to comment and say, “I told you!!” because she’s been trying to get me to try Zumba for months. Pffft.

It’s been a while since I updated about Cheerio. Isn’t he so cute!? I can’t get enough of him, seriously. I love it when he greets me at the door when I get home from work. Sometimes he’s not at the door when I come in but he’s always running down the hall to the door with his ears flapping up and down.

We keep spoiling him with new toys & treats. We’re learning what treats he does and does not like. So far we have found some good “healthy” treats that he likes. I usually give him a treat before I leave for work to distract him from giving me the sad face when I leave.

When we’re not home he has access to half of the house. We don’t trust him with the front of the house where the foosball table & living room is. When he was being potty trained, he would poop on the carpet. Now he has not gone potty in the house for a while anyways. We always leave all the bedroom doors closed when we’re gone too. Also the laundry room is blocked with a gate because of the cat litter box.

I’m glad Tyler is usually able to come home for lunch so he can play with Cheerio and let him out to go potty. We make sure we give him lots of love when we’re home to make up for it.

However…he’s not exactly innocent as he seems to be. He chews on the edge of the carpet in the family room. Ugh! There are a few bald spots from him doing that. It’s driving me crazy! I wish we had a lot of money to just rip out all of the carpet and tile to put in hardwood floors. This is the first thing I’d do if I won the lottery.

BUT again…how can I be mad at this adorable poochie?! His ears are so soft that I want to nibble on them!
