Birthday and puppies.

James came home on the 19th. He was happy to be back again finally after so many delays!

So on the 27th I turned 24. I feel older than that, lol. For my birthday we went out to dinner. We ate at applebee's

On the 28th the puppies were born! What an eventful day! It was an amazing experience to help Sadie bring the puppies into the world. She had three. She had a black one with a white spot on it's head and one spot on its back. It's a boy. Then she had a white puppy with black spots. She's the runt and she is a girl. Then she had a black puppy with a white belly. That puppy is a boy. Sadie had no interest in the puppies at first. She refused to care for them or feed them. The only time she was willing to feed them was when she was in labor with #2. We have to hold her down and make her feed them. She is getting better though. Sunday she let us just sit next to her while shes feeding them without trying too hard to get up. And then today i was actually able to get up and run to the bathroom and she continued to feed them. If she gets distracted or hears any noises she gets up and runs off. She's also been going up to the basket we have them in and sniffing but she is still somewhat uninterested. She refuses to lick and clean them. That's okay though.. these puppies will be people lovers! They look big in the pics but they are smaller than my hand.
