More puppy pics

G-Boo is still snuggled in tight and doesn't seem to want to come out and play! So, we wait some more. And while we wait, we have puppies to keep us entertained.

They've moved out of the closet into the utility room and have taken up eating puppy chow twice/day. They've grown so much in 3 weeks. Fat little suckers. Here are a couple of recent photos.

Yummy!?


Everyone fights for their spot at the bowl.


BeBe is honing her videographer skills...



It's back to the doctor for us on Monday (if not before).
Have a great weekend!

They're on the move!

The puppies are growing! Their eyes are open and now that they can see, they are becoming more adventurous...



The puppy brigade!


They're so cute!

Great use of duck hunting props BeBe!

Baby Steps

39 weeks!
Well, we're a week away from G's due date now and received some encouraging news from the doctor this morning. I'm still at 1 cm, but he commented on some things that are changing that have to occur before G-Boo can be delivered. We're happy with the report and the doc said I was right on track and that he wasn't concerned about anything. At the end of our visit he said, "Ok, we'll see ya next week if not before. And...try to be patient". Ahh, patience...not a virtue I wear well. But, I'm trying and really have no choice at this point! :)

So, we wait...

Have a good rest of your Monday!

Still waiting...

I know, I know...I haven't done a good job of updating you all this week. I was hoping I'd finally have something to update you on. But, not much has changed since our last baby update. We went to the doctor on Monday and there weren't any changes to report and the week has been fairly uneventful as far as contractions go. That being said, last night I did have a lot of "tightening" in my lower abdomen, but it never progressed into much of anything. We're hoping that means it won't be long now though! We're ready to meet our little boy!!! We have another doctor's appointment on Monday so, I'll do better about keeping everyone informed, change or no change.

I'd like to say a Happy Anniversary to B-man! Our five year anniversary was yesterday. We watched our wedding video last night and commented on how perfect the day was, despite all of the changes we had to make because of B-man's impending deployment. Thanks to our friends and family who adjusted plans and made the day possible. As we watched the video, we smiled, laughed, and of course I cried. I just love watching it! I can't believe it was five years ago and now we're waiting on our son's arrival. B-man was even gracious enough to dance with me to our wedding song (as I wore my pink fluffy slippers and pajamas...what a difference 5 years makes-hehehe!). Thanks Hon!
If you'd like to listen to our song, here it is.
Clint Black's, Something That We Do.

The Happy Couple!
Hope you have a great weekend!!

Puppy Time

BeBe took the puppies' "one week" photos yesterday. Here are a few...

Puppy pile.


Love that face!


Proud mama! She's already lost all of that baby weight too!

Photo updates

Thanks to all for the compliments on G's room. We're very pleased with the final results. I apologize for being out of the "blog loop" this week. I have been sick but am feeling MUCH MUCH better this morning. I was going to post my 36 week (9mos) picture when I posted the video of Bella and her pups, but I had such a hard time getting the video to show up that by the time I got the video up and running, the picture was just too much for this patient Mom-to-be to handle! hehe! (Elena, that's where you caught me last week--mid posting). And then I was sick...blah, blah, blah.
Ok, enough excuses, here it is...

9 months prego! What a difference a couple of months (and a few doughnuts) make!
I'm also including some photos of the pups back home. I'm sad to report that the little runt of the litter didn't make it. All too common in the animal world. So, now there are 10. The pups and Mom had their first visit to the vet and they all are doing well. BeBe tells me how great Bella is at being a Mom...I hope I'm as good as she is at handling the pressures of motherhood! :)




Thanks to B-man for taking care of me yet again! Not only did he have a pregnant lady or a sick lady to take care of this week, but a pregnant and sick lady. What a trooper. Thanks Hon! Hope you all have a great weekend!
