Strong Thing
In a couple of hours they will be 24 hours old - a full day since they made their debut.
The little gal is strong, strong, strong. Usually at this age they simply squirm but she is pushing up on her legs and smelling the blanket. It seemed to fascinate her.
I have so many photos of her doing this. They don't usually get up on their legs even in such an awkward way till they are older. She seems to be a curious one.
When Lori and Roger heard Jeannie was pregnant they got her this pillow, blanket (2) and 2 stuffed animals. Now that Jeannie's discharge has slowed down we brought the nice soft stuff out and I gather that is what the gal liked. Imagine less than a day old and feel and smell is so very strong.
Pups are doing really well. They are surrounded by softness. Milk is plentiful. Mom is attentive. Life is good. Dennis will be going to sleep when Nathan gets home around 7 and sleeping till midnight then Nathan will go to bed and Dennis will do night time duty. After 2 nights of no sleep I was a dead person but Dennis today let me take all the dogs and snuggle with them in the tv room and sleep for an hour then I had another session where I slept another hour so I can make it to 10pm tonight and ah my own bed sleeping with the dogs and hubby too. Normalcy to a point.
Sometimes there may be 1 update or several so be sure to look further down or you may miss something.

They are beautiful!! Just love how they are all different. Good job, Jeannie. Congratulations Darlah
Jeannie's blanket and pillow are beautiful, a perfect match for mom and pups.
If you notice the gal was trying to stand and was sniffing it. It was a huge success to her. Plus its rather pretty! Nathan just arrived home and needs to shower before he can see dogs. Adele is over the moon happy to be home. I just read my mail Nathan is at the Markham show all weekend - oy!
OMG the little gal is almost standing. That is amazing for a pup less than 24 hours old. She will surely be an escape artist.
Beautiful and looking so strong already!
Congratulations! They are so cute! Jeannie really looks like she is happy to be a new mom. It must be from all the great mommy examples she has around.
