Puck This

Yesterday both of my kids threw up on me.

Just another day in the life of a parent, amiright?

My 2.5 year old was courteous enough to throw up on the hard wood floor. My 2 month old has chosen her carpeted bedroom to be her puke place of choice.

This made me ponder the pros and cons of dog ownership whilst I watched my lab mix Bella lick up the puke from the floor. I used to find this completely disgusting, but now that I have two kids instead of one, I couldn't help but say, "thank you so much for the help!"

Pro/Con List of Dog Ownership While Raising Babies:
  Pro: Cleans up throw up
  Con: Fucking gross

  Pro: Doesn't complain about anything
  Con: I have another source of guilt all the time because only some days I may be a sub par mom, but almost always I'm a neglectful dog owner

  Pro: Really cute
  Con: Dog. Fur. Everywhere.

One of those, can't live with them, can't live without them deals so it seems.

But to any mom or dad who has ever been thrown up on, I raise my coffee mug to you. And I hope you have a dog who helps with the clean up.
