Miss Sadie is one proud mama!
Last night, she quickly welcomed four sweet babies into the world. We have three boys and a little lady. With a one to one ratio of kids to puppies, I am certain this will be our most spoiled litter yet!

It's spring break and we started our morning off with a walk along the creek, one of Miss Sadie's favorite things to do.
Maybe we'll end our day with puppies?! The anticipation is growing by the minute, we cannot wait to announce their arrival! Today my youngest girl (Ren) turns EIGHT! She has been predicting that Sadie will have 8 puppies on her 8th birthday for weeks now... The day isn't over yet, but it's not looking good!
Nesting has begun, she is slowing down at meals, and is starting to get a little lazier than usual. All signs that labor is getting closer. If I were to guess, I would say puppies will arrive sometime Saturday or Sunday, but as you all have probably figured out by now... Sadie does EVERYTHING in her own time. So, we'll see. I know we can't control mother nature, but I sure loved Ren's idea of 8 on her 8th! Ha! Ha! March has arrived and puppies should be here soon! Our estimated due date is March 6th, but the ultrasound tech said she suspects it will be closer to March 9th. My youngest daughter's birthday is March 9th, so she is really hoping for a March 9th delivery.
We can't wait to meet these new babies! We are just 2-3 weeks out from meeting our new bunch of toller pups! Sadie had an ultrasound appointment last week that confirmed mama and babies are right on track. We can't wait to meet them.
It's exhausting being this cute!
Miss Lucy is doing great! She loves going outside and gets so excited every time she sees the leash. (Even though she doesn't exactly *LOVE* the leash yet- we are working on it!) She loves anything and everything she can sink those teeth into... bully sticks, cow ears, and her Christmas penguin on her current favorite things. She also loves bean bags, couch cuddles, and cartoons! Miss Lucy Lu is ringing the new year in with her Mama and her original humans while she patiently waits for her forever family to find her. She is such a sweet girl. She is sleeping all night long in her crate, whining when she needs to go outside, and is constantly dishing out sweet puppy kisses!
Livie Lou, our 8 year old snow puppy! Livie doesn't usually love extreme temperatures, but she was ALL about the snow today! Sadie Jade, our snow queen!
Sadie lives for this weather. I had a 'five minutes at a time' rule for kids and canines and Sadie did NOT approve, but she made the best of her five minute sprees every single time! All the pups have safely made it to their forever families!
As always, our time with them went by entirely too fast, but we are loving all of the pictures and updates we have received so far. We took Miss Sadie Jade on a special 'belated' birthday trip to hang out with her boyfriend and cousins on the farm! She had a blast and has been snoozing since we got home. Miss 3, Ruby Q, and Rosie are the final pups in the pack!
We took them out front with all the Christmas decor this afternoon and it was so fun to watch them explore... Lots of running and pouncing. However, few things are more exciting than kids and crunchy leaves! Ha! Ha! The Christmas decorations caught their attention for a few moments, but it didn't take them long to find the few piles of leaves still waiting to be bagged and, of course, the human kids running around behind me! |
