It's Getting Close...

 October 1, 2025 at 1830

So, Mama took my temperature again this evening and it's down to 99.1 degrees.  I really don't understand why she is doing it.  I have been super clingy today trying to let her know it's getting close.  I spent almost two whole minutes getting the box ready.   Check out how I rearranged the blankets - pretty nice, huh?

You know at first I was upset with Mama and her dumb cameras but I had to apologize.  Not long after I rearranged the birth space Barney stuck his head in the box to check it out.  I thought, how sweet of him.  He's probably just making sure our babies have a safe place to be born!

Little did I know!  That stinker!  Caught red handed stealing my blanket!!!  Just you wait Barney.

Mama said something about forgiveness and what not.  She said she'll get the blanket and put it back in the box when he's not looking.   She sure does love me!

October 1, 2025 While we are waiting...

 Hey again!  It's me MJ.   Mama tells me we are getting close.  She keeps checking my temperature and if you don't know how that's done, well, I'll spare you the details.  Mama wrote all the temps down and took a picture: 

While we are waiting for labor to begin, let me share some highlights of the last few weeks.

This is me with two of my favorite humans:  SP and PS.  Taken this summer when I still had my girlish figure.

This is Barney, the father of my pups.  Cute, isn't he?

August 25, 2025 -  Day 25 Mama did an ultrasound to confirm my pregnancy.

September 8, 2025 -  Day 38 Mama's good friend, Miss Lori, helped with this ultrasound.  

September 16, 2025 - Day 47 Time for our check ups!  

That nice lady is our Dr. Cameron.  She has a nice company 

called Happy's Vet and they come to our home!  Look at Barney, he's such a flirt!

September 25, 2025 - Day 56 That's me looking for the treat jar.  Don't judge!  I've got pups to feed :)

 

September 26, 2025 - Day 57 This is Erin.  She is a nice lady who works with Dr. Cameron at Happy's Vet.  Today I had x-rays done to see how many pups are in there.  Mama thought maybe 50.  Grateful she was wrong.

Here is the x-ray.  Honestly, I can't figure out heads from tails.  I had Mama circle one of the heads.  Maybe you can see all the heads in there!

September 28, 2025 - Day 59 "Large and In Charge" is what they are calling me.  I feel like the lady in the commercial for some gadget - "help, I've fallen and I can't get up". 

October 1, 2025 - Day 62 I've been checking out the whelping box for a couple of weeks now.  Barney stuck his head in there to see what's up.

Alright, I suppose everyone is caught up now.   I've been restless today, I think it will be tonight or tomorrow.  We shall see!

Signed - Large and in charge, MJ
