So tired!

Its funny, people told me again and again how exhausting it would be to get a puppy...and I knew they were right, but at the same time, I couldn't really grasp just how tiring it is until now. The Hinckster is doing great, and his housetraining is coming along (finally got him to poop within 30 min of a meal! Fantastic!) but its exhausting trying to be there for him and also prepare him for next week, when I won't be here for him.

It's crazy because I probably read about 5 books about raising puppies...but now that he's here I'm realizing there is so much they leave out. Like what do you do when you take him to his bathroom spot but all he wants to do is eat rocks? Or what does it mean if its been 5 hours since he's eaten and he still hasn't pooped (sorry for the potty talk...its all I've been thinking about for the last 3 days!)

Anyway, we're figuring it out together. I have to keep reminding myself that its his first week, there will be accidents, and right now he's just a crazy curious rascal. I'm having fun, but also looking forward to tonight when Tyler can help me out with an extra pair of hands!
