It would appear that I need to leave the house without my little sidekick more than I have been and for longer periods of time. I went to the club last night to Judge the Puppy Kindergarten classes so I was gone for approx. 3 hours and I guess that was too long for Kailey. When I came home I took one look at Jack and Kailey's faces and I knew it didn't go very well. Her face was very red and her eyes were swollen and glossy looking. She took one look at me and her bottom lip came out as far as it could. I took her from Jack and she nestled into my neck and didn't move. I guess she was playing with him fine for the first part of the night and then she got antsy and then came the inconsolable crying for over an hour. There was no comforting her apparently. Jack finally had to lay her in her bed with a binky and let her cry herself to sleep as there literally was nothing left to try. He said he has never heard her cry like this. He looked like he had been through a war and was very sad at the fact there was nothing he could do. The last couple of times I have gone out she would start to get cranky and look for me, but I always came home within 1.5-2 hours MAX. I think she was totally blown away that I was not the one to get her from her nap or that I was gone for soooo long 'in her eyes'. She drank part of her bottle while I was gone so I am happy for that because that is aways touchy especially if she is so upset. Of course I felt totally guilty but I cannot be here 24/7 and being with all those cute puppies was a total blast for me. I lost my voice as I am not used to talking to that many adults. I bet if I had my 'Kailey' voice I would have been ok...hahaha. She is still sleeping so I am glad she is having a nice sleep and I am hoping she wakes up her usual happy self. Jack, I think, aged a few years last night just looking at him. The cry he described is the one that gets my heart racing and palms sweaty...it is a terrible cry. I heard it when she got her shots. She actually goes for her second set next week...lovely. I will find out what she weighs and how long she is so that is always fun to report.
Oh she is waking up...this kid is like clockwork...8:32am. lol
