PUPPIES

This past Tuesday our dog Lexi had her first litter of puppies. We had been anxiously awaiting them for over a week as the Wednesday before was her "due date." Without going into too much detail I had to birth the first one since Lexi was a little perplexed about what in the world was happening. She wasn't in her whelping box so that was a little bit of a problem and she was standing which didn't help either. So the first one got here with a little drama but after that she was a pro. The second one came out while I was texting Jay's mom about the first pup. All the sudden I look down and "Whoa" there were two. I was like, "Where did you come from?" Sadly the third puppy born was stillborn. It was a girl. Finally, the fourth was born and it was the lone boy! They are all doing great!
