Our morning routine????? Well........I don't think any of us like to get up when the alarm goes off at 6:30. I usually hit the snooze button until 7ish. Then I scramble so I'm not late. My routine varies. If my mom in law is home for the day....I let Orion sleep in. You can usually tell when O's awake...the snoring has stopped. Usually she's snoring until the blanket is removed from the front of her kennel. So, if mom in law works that day, I get Orion up and take her downstairs to pee and poo. From there, we go back upstairs and get into the shower. Vegas is usually still on the bed, under the covers...not moving. Once we have dried our hair (Orion loves the hairdryer) and are dressed and ready for the day...it's usually 8am. 8am is seizure med time. So, with some shaking and prodding, Vegas slides out of bed and the 3 of us head back downstairs for breakfast. Vegas will usually eat then do his business. I'm (hopefully) out the door by 8:20. IF mom in law is home for the day, I let O sleep until I'm dressed and ready. Then, I work to get both Vegas and Orion out of bed, fed, pee'd and poo'd, medicated and kenneled.....and still out the door by 8:20. The weekends? You'd think the family would be able to sleep in late. Wrong...Orion will sleep until the blanket is removed from the front of her kennel. Vegas on the other hand...he will be up at 6:30. He doesn't get the weekend thing. He pushes and noses my husband until he's forced out of bed, then Vegas will snuggle into the warm spot. Vegas is an alarm clock. He will make sure you are up in time...but he will sleep until he's forced out of bed.
