Yep, the thong would be more embarrassing for sure!!

The minute we mention the word "bed" my two are up and running for the door, they know their routine... potty then bed. They do have to be lifted into bed, but they head there themselves.

That is so funny! They want you to get all of your exercise at home.

Yep.....................I carry Rylee (4 pound yorkie), but not my Rookie my
Chihuahua...........he is way to heavy!!!! I do however have to lift him up onto the bed if he refuses to use his steps. He's getting stubborn these days!!!!

Gracie and Rosie follow me wherever I go. They know when the tv goes off, lights, etc, they head for the bedroom. I have stairs at the foot of my bed, and they can climb up them. They are usually in bed before me.

My babies are 2.7lbs and 1.5 lbs therefore I carry them practically everywhere! My girl can climb up the ramp to my bed but my lil guy cant make it from the ramp onto the bed so I have to get him every time.
It's a joy!

I guess I just have lazy, spoiled boys! Last night I shut the living room tv and said "ok boys let's go to bed". Neither of them moved a bit. I first carried Cooper to bed and then Max sat up waiting for his free ride. Max can jump off the sofa. He's 13 pounds

I can't believe Jacki has not answered this yet for us...so here goes.
Bedtime is an adventure for everyone. By 8:45pm (our day starts really early) Enzo and Chanel are in our faces looking to head off to dreamland.
We ask them if they are "ready to head south?" the general direction of the bedroom, and the race is on, first to potty, 10 xtra minutes of play and then, Enzo scrambles up the pillow tower next to the headboard and then up and over onto the mattress to the top or he waits for the elevator, my hands, to lift him up. If taking the elevator, he waits at the footboard for his lift. He nests in the valley between the pillows on a blanket laid out for him. Every night, without fail. Chanel is the renegade. She gets a lift up and finds her own spot at the foot or between us or on top or next to Enzo, depending on room temperature, I think. 5 minutes later, nothing but quiet rest. Amazing really.

Not lazy, they're just good at training mommy.

SMCW1 · 04-11-2011, 10:15 AM

I don't carry her all the time as normally when you say it's time for bed she runs up the stairs and on to my bed(Think she is scared she will be left downstairs). I only carry her if she has been in a deep sleep and really doesn't want to move.

miriamgibson · 04-11-2011, 12:22 PM

Yep...My Bentley is only 3 pounds so he can't jump up on the bed. Hahaha.. I have to put him there. I do want DH to make a ramp for him though.. I enjoy carrying him around though.

Safire · 04-12-2011, 10:24 AM

I get told when it's time... Tetley starts to huff at me to get my butt moving to bed. "It's late mummy, what are you still doing UP?" As soon as he hears the computer shutting down it's a race to the bedroom to wait for me in bed. Funny how much they all love bedtime huh?

Tillies mum · 04-13-2011, 07:20 PM

Tillie taps me with her paw to tell me she is ready to go to bed. She goes outside to toilet first then trotts to our bedroom. Our routine is that i lift her onto my bed and she cuddles up to me and we both fall asleep. Once my husband has finished watching sport and is ready for bed he carries her and places her in her bed.
