1 Week Old!!

This week has flown by and these little kiddos are now 1 week old!

It's been a good week for them of eating and sleeping. Eating and sleeping. Eating and ..... well, you get the idea. :)

Mama Daisy leaves their side only for a quick potty break or bite to eat. She's such a great, gentle mommy with a small dose of protectiveness. Nothing overboard, she just wants to know where they are at all times and what's going on with them. When I pick one up, her nose is right on the little puppy. And when I put them down, she's lick em' and clean 'em all up!

I was having trouble getting everyone to cooperate with me today for some pictures. Seems they didn't like me interrupting their nap time and Daisy had her nose in the way trying to see what I was doing! LOL! They also insist on being in a "Puppy Pile" and have to cuddle on top of each other. It's super cute watching them find each other by their little noses and then snuggling, but it makes it hard to get a picture of each of their faces!

But here are a few pics of them I was able to take. I weigh them every other day to make sure each one is getting enough to eat and they are all on a steady gain! What a good, healthy bunch...I'm so thankful!!


The Girls:

(see...Mama's checkin' out what I'm up to...)
The Boys:
("Awww...yawn...all this modeling and posing makes a guy tired!")

Update on Daisy....

Sorry for the lag in posting. I've been just a teeny bit preoccupied!!! :)

My bubba love Daisy started her pre-term laboring Thursday and by Friday evening @ 8:25pm, the first little one came into the world! We were up all night and into the next morning welcoming each puppy into the world. There are 8 puppies total and the boys definitely outnumber the girls this time around: 3 Black Females and 5 Males (2 Cream and 3 Black). I just can't tell you how precious these sweeties are and the pictures do NOT do them justice at all! Oh...and speaking of pictures...below are some for you to check out. Daisy has gotten her figure back and is resting and taking good care of her darlings. I'll post more pictures soon, but now I'm off to bed myself!!

This first picture was taken about 2 weeks before Daisy was due. She was HUGE and spent most of her days doing exactly what she was doing in this picture!
Here are the first 3 puppies born. They rested in a nice warm box while Mama was pushing the others out.

Daisy is in LABOR!

So I worked on this post earlier but hit the save button instead of the publish button! Silly me! I've been up all night with Daisy as she has been in labor....YEAH!! I'm exhausted but wanted to get up a quick photo of one of these babies....they're PRECIOUS!
