Good morning!!!

This morning at "nap time and mommy free time"





I got up early this morning, why I don't know. But it gave me some time alone with Meg and her pups while the kids slept. Meg got a bath today, she needed it... so that was alot of fun. She also got to eat breakfast alone while the pups slept and I changed their bedding. I gave her tuna mixed in and she loved it. Its her treat and makes her coat ever more shiny....

She stood by the bowl after she got done so I gave her another scoop of food and she turned her nose up at it....it was missing the tuna. Little food critic!!

The puppies are all doing really well. We lost one yesterday, she died while I was at work. Katie came to care for them and found her. He was the yellow lab with the red band.

All the puppies got new necklaces so to speak. I went and got Rick-Rack ribbon. I have seen on other sites people use it, so I picked it up in their colors.

So all is well, I am going to go outside with Meg now and then take her in so she can be with her pups.

Red band ~ we lost him yesterday while I was at work... it was sad for me and the kids but I did have the talk with them about the fact that not all puppies make it. He will be missed, he was a cutie!

Meg and puppies.....Daddy Sam





The puppies have been born....

The kids and I came home from work yesterday and summer day camp to find Meg....plus two puppies. The kids asked me in the car on the way home if I thought we would have puppies today....I assured them it was not the day. Lo and behold, it was the day. She had her first two puppies prior to our arrival and had the remaining 6 puppies within 3 hours of us arriving.

Meg did such a wonderful job with them. She really did not need me there at all, but I did help move them around when she was busy delivering another puppy. And once all was done, Katie (a friend of mine) came to help me temporarily relocate mom and pups and clean up their room.

I went to bed around 12:00 and did not get woken up at all. Momma Meg is doing great with them this morning. The kids and I cleaned and fed Meg. Let her out for a little bit and then left her with fresh food and water and a clean area. Katie will be coming to the house today to be there for the dogs.

Let the fun begin! We are all really excited!!!
