The Puppies Are Here!!

Our day started out with Terry going to work for a friend, thinking the puppies probably wouldn't come until this afternoon or maybe the next day. Shortly after 11a, my third child Avery and I (the only ones at home) helped Dakota deliver the first puppy!! It was quite exciting and I'm sure Avery won't ever forget today. Dakota did a wonderful job, such a good mom!! We ended up with a total of 10 puppies!! 4 chocolate (all females), 3 black (2 females, 1 male), and 3 Blond (2 males, 1 female). We were so excited to see all 3 colors. They are so fun to watch.

Logan was very excited to get out of school early and to see the puppies being born. Cody was grossed out pretty much the whole time. It was and is an awesome experience!!!

Our new pets

For about the last week we have had new vistors in our front yard. We've been feeding them everynight for the last week. As a duck hunter this pains be gratefully because I don't get to see this many ducks when I'm hunting. Maybe this fall I will just hunt in my front yard!!

Yes, we are pregnant!!

No, not me, our dog Dakota. She is really showing the signs of being pregnant and she is due around the first of June!! We are so excited and the kids can't wait to see the puppies!! More information and pictures to come after the puppies are here!! We are hoping to get all 3 colors, blond, black, and chocolate!!

Cody was born at 748pm on May 1st 2003. He was 10 lbs 4oz. and 22 inches long. He is now a very big 6 year old. My how time flies!! He had a very busy day on the 1st, starting with donuts for everyone in his class on Friday morning, followed by lunch with Grandpa and Avery at Elmers. Which Cody used to call it Elmo's when he was 2. Then for dinner he chose to go to Red Robins with Logan and of course, his cousin Avery. Saturday was busy with T-Ball, but we managed to fit in his birthday party Saturday night with friends and family. We had a lot of fun celebrating his birthday!!
