Out to Play

Bria was a gal on a mission. She wanted to get back to playing vs. grooming. Can you blame her?

Here is the gallery.

It's been a day. Not sure how I was able to do it but it's not over YET. LOL

Dennis handed me a puppy and said dirty bum - can you clean? I sure hope he didn't have one for the visit. I usually get the pups together in the bags. Nathan did it today and I check each bottom as I go. I just dewormed them so this sometimes happens as it changes their bowels. Deworming is preventative - not necessary as bowels have been fine but hey this is NOT the puppy blog. hahahaha

Let's see our day. We got up. We fed all the dogs. We took them out to play and Ella wouldn't eat so I said best check her temps. It was down. She had her pups in time to have the 6 week visit. Everyone left. I spent 3 hours grooming. Ella is too worried with everyone coming that she is fretting over pups. 

Now I am doing blogs, Nathan is doing tv time and I am also taking care of puppies. Can I go to bed?

Still got blogs to do and pups to attend to.

Did play a fun game with the dogs. To be honest, I am not sure how I ever did but it was fun. 

Till tomorrow and Saffron wait till Tuesday please!

Darlah I am exhausted just reading what you did today. What a FULL day. Hope things can settle down tomorrow.

Today I have grooming - 2 haircuts, reorganize and make room for couch. It gets moved out, recliner goes back as there is simply not enough room. Saffron's pen gets set up. A new pen to match the others comes by 9pm. Ellas pen is too small so I will use one panel for hers so they will have the same size Ella and Saffron. Got a camera to set up here and another upstairs. Got a heat lamp to set up though 3 heatlamps may be overkill. Stole the camera - the one upstairs for Ella yesterday. Didn't replace it last night. Too tired. Got mega laundry. Hopefully I will be set up ahead of time for Saffron as the scrambling to set up for Ella was not fun. I was so stressed I was sweating.Nathan says he is so tired. <sigh> What I did yesterday was completely insane. Not even sure how I accomplished what I did. I really do not.By bedtime I was almost in tears. Just only so much one can do in a day. It was great to snuggle with the dogs last night.

Bria's colouring is very much like Laci's. Who are her parents? Any relation?

Ellie is turning out to be a little Mini Laci. Laci's going to have a full time play-mate for March break. Lucky her and lucky us!
