Will the Dog Survive?

If you've read earlier posts, you know that we got a new Yorkie right before Christmas. Ethan LOVES that little dog and carts it around. The other day I looked and he was holding it up by its hind leg. YIKES! Needless to say, the dog does A LOT of hiding!

Now, don't think I'm a horrific mother, but these events happened the other day. (It's really hard to supervise a rambunxious 3 year old, and a newborn at the same time).

First, I heard water running, and Ethan had poor Duke in the bathtub with freezing cold water running on him. I dried him off, and informed Ethan that he couldn't just throw the poor dog in the bathtub. Then, I was in changing Addy and Ethan came in and told me he got Duke all clean. So, of course, I was thinking he was referring to the mornings event of Duke in the tub. Turns out I found Duke and the kitchen floor, covered in dish soap. I washed poor Duke, dried him off, and commenced clean up of the kitchen floor. I yelled for Ethan and asked what he was doing, and he told me he was drying the dog. So, at this point, I RAN to the laundry room, where I found poor Duke in the dryer. Luckily Ethan isn't tall enough to reach the buttons to turn on the dryer, but poor Duke was scared out of his mind.

Needless to say, I really hope this dog survives our house!
