Fuego

Yes you read the name right. My oldest son picked it. I guess it means fire in spanish (I call him Max)
This puppy is my favorite. I know we should not have favorites but he seems like a easy going little guy. He is almost 1 pound. I love his color. I hope his color is the same as his dads when he gets a little older.

Mommy

Joby is getting the hang of being a new mommy. Last night was a little ruff for the both of us. I slept 2 hrs. She was very nervous when I took the babys away to put them in their warming box. By about 7am she has finally relaxed and figured out that we work as a team. She is starting to smell them and lick them. She is more relaxed when the are away from her.

No Name Pup

This pup is the biggest puppy of the bunch. But that always changes. He is a strong nurser. He will nurse from any nipple at any time. He is like a vacuum. He never wants to stop eating! I love his markings. He looks like he has knee highs on. Also on the top of his head he has a diamond. He also has a spot on his butt like his mom.

Luvabull Wilber "Willie"

Logan named this puppy. Because he seems like a little piglet. He is the second biggest puppy. Very cute.

Luvabull Teddy



Sydney named this little guy. She said she named him Teddy because he is small and looks like a Teddy bear. He is the smallest of the three Frenchies. But sure is cute. He gave me a little bit of a hard time last night because he has to try a lot harder to nurse. He yelled at me all night long. But by about 4:30 am he finally got it down. I just have to put him on the mom first so he can latch on good, then his brothers latch on. He is much happier. No more crying.

The Waiting Game

          Soon the puppy's will be here. The kids and I are so excited! Joby is feeling a little needy right now. If I am home she just wants to be right by us all. She sleeps in late, and seems very uncomfortable. I feel bad for her. She has all the symptoms that I had when I was nine months pregnant. But she is being SPOILED rotten. Tonight I start checking her temp to check for signs of labour. I will be taking her everywhere with me this week so I can keep a eye on her. (I better enjoy my sleep this week. I know soon I will be getting up soon with those cute little baby's) Friday is c-section day if they don't come before that. I posted some pictures of her belly.
Hi its Landon, my mothers second in command I guess (who do you think is gonna take care of the puppies as my mom is gone, not my dad and my siblings are to little.) So lets hope I get payment, what do u think? Well the thought of a whelping box popped into my moms head. if you are like me who had no idea what the heck a whelping box was. Then I will give you a definition. The whelping box or nesting box is designed to keep the puppies safe from out side dangers by containing them in a box. So we made the bow 3' by 4' and the sides 17" tall. My dad and my neighbor built the box, and me and my brother finished the box. Even though he got lazy through the middle of the first quarter of the job and left, leaving me to finish. After finishing the staining part of the job, I start to put the protective coat on top, and I lose my brother. Running through the house I have no idea were he is at. I look everywhere in his room. Ran up and down our street. I dont know were he went. But here comes my dad and he had him in his car. My brother got in his car right in front of me. But I was not paying attention......Of course. and they drove away right in front of my eyes. So now I know he is safe I finish my job and now we have a whelping box.
