Entry 494: Bella Problem

Look at this little dog, how can you not love it? Well don't let the cuteness fool you because under that ridiculously cute exterior lies a holy terror. During the weekdays we are up by 5:30 at the latest and this suits Bella well because she starts getting up then and playing with the other two dogs. It works well for all of us, but on the weekends we run into some problems. Julie decided that she really likes Bella to sleep with us which is fine because she sleeps really well and doesn't bother us. Once 5:30 rolls around though it is a different story. Once Bella is awake she will come and lick us both in the face continually until we are both awake (let me tell you that there is nothing worse than being in a deep sleep and being awoken by a tongue in the face). Lance lets her out, but by this time Bella is wide awake and keeps right on licking us in the face for a good 2 hours. Now your probably thinking, why don't you just put her on the floor??? Great idea that we have tried, but unfortunately she will sit by the bed and bark and also jump at the covers pulling them down. Quite the smart dog. So right now Bella is playing some major havoc with our sleep patterns.
