It's getting cold outside!

I would first like to say... I am not one to dress my dog up. However there are some circumstances that this is acceptable. One being Halloween.Milo was a fantastic Captain Hook for Halloween this year. I'm sad that I didn't get a picture of all of us together; Jon was Peter Pan, I was Tinkerbell and Milo of course was Captain Hook. At first Milo didn't love the costume, but when he found out that when he wore it he got ALOT of attention and got to go to fun places (we took him to our wards trunk or treat where he sat next to the car like a pro and had many kids pet him; pretty sure he was in doggy heaven).
I know some of you are saying wow you really treat this dog like your child, but anyone that has met my dog can agree that this dog has a personality of his own. He loves our renters Ashley and Erika that live downstairs. He greets all of their friends with a big smile and wagging of the tail; however if you happen to be a male he is not happy. He barks and barks and will stare at them through the little space between the door and the floor and lets them know he is not happy with you being there. Now if your a guy friend of mine or Jon's you are more than welcome in our house. Pretty sure he thinks that Ashley and Erika are his girlfriends.
Anyways Milo has very little fur. He is 100% muscle, no fat, and no fur. So now that the weather has changed he literally has to sleep under the blankets. If you're cuddling in a blanket on the couch he will come up and paw at the top of the blanket and start stuffing his head under the blanket until he is completely submerged under the blanket. We have some throw blankets in our bedroom that he will wiggle his little nose underneath, get the blanket on his back and walk around the house with a blanket on his back. So it was inevitable......

Of course I would get him one with a soccer ball on it =) He actually LOVES this sweatshirt. If he's not wearing it he'll go and get it and cuddle with it. The only problem is we have to remember to roll it up when he goes to the bathroom.... good thing that dog loves his showers and we can just turn the shower on and throw him in there by himself at midnight when we forget to roll it up =)

4 Weeks left of class...

and its official. My Teacher has gone into labor. She's early so is on bedrest andIV's... this could either be REALLY good or REALLY bad. She said she has a substitute to come in and teach or her husband will come in. Well the only other time she had mentioned her husband was when she said to the class "Now you all understand that the body receives blood at the same time and not just one side at a time right?" we all stared at her like is this a serious question? "Well my husband didn't understand that so just making sure you all did."

Wish me luck!
