Long Night and Today

It was a long night. Her temps have stayed down all night. Today will be the day - of course as Nathan is at the show.

She is nesting wherever she can except in her whelping box. She even hid under the couch and was so far in the corner I couldn't see her. I swore I had her in the whelping room but here she refused to respond and I couldn't see her. I thought I was losing my mind as I knew she was in here and here she wasn't. Dennis crawled under the couch and said see she is blending in and she is in the corner. He had to lift the couch to give me access to her.

She is trying to find a place she deems safe to her to have her pups. It will be today. As Deb mentioned she may hold out till Nathan gets home around 6 and then again maybe not.

Right now I made room on my desk with the bed and she is not overly happy so I may watch hockey and Dennis and Jon can play with the rest of the dogs. It may mean no great photos of the others but I am sure you understand.

I am sure all of the Talemaker family will be closely following Roxie's delivery today. I know I can't help but check back all the time to see how she is doing. It will be good to see pictures of her and her babies when she will be looking like a proud and loving Mama.

Ahhh, Roxie sounds so much like Laci. She hides under the bed when she's under the weather. :-( I have to say I look forward to the 1st pregnancies coming and going so they understand what's going on. Although I suppose instinct plays a large part. I am happy she's only having 2 (or 3 :-) so she has fewer to tend to. Wonder how much Ya Ya Abigail will help her daughter in waiting???

Sending positive vibes for a safe delivery! I think Roxie has us all on our toes.
