Hi Sara I'm so glad your family is doing well. Sure wish I lived nearby and could lend a hand but sounds like your doing a great job all by yourself!
Keep up the good work and I'll keep up the prayers!

Hi everyone....

I did not go into work last night. Seems like the last several weeks has finally caught up to me. When my granddaughter came back from her dad's last weekend she managed to bring a stomach virus with her. Well all of us have been sick but only lasted about a day. I still went to work for 2 days...not feeling too well but alright. Last night I had to have my mom come get me and take me to the doctor at 10 pm. He took me off work for at least 2 days so I did not go in last night. He gave me a shot that just knocked my butt out. I have been in bed for the last 12 hours now and still feel extremely tired. Hubby is home today so he has been taking care of the dogs for me. I just checked them and they are all doing fine. Momma even came and layed with me. Guess she was going to take care of me for a little bit. I am off to bed again....I will get some new pics when I can. They are just growing so fast.

Sorry to hear you are not feeling so well. Take care of yourself and get some much deserved rest.

Bless your heart, you have done so very much. I hate that you are not feeling well. I am praying that our Lord will restore you to good health soon. You have been an angel to this little momma and her pups and I know you have been an inspiration to many.

Sara, sorry to hear you are not feeling well. The stress you have been under has likely run down your immune system, so you are going to have to take care of yourself for a while. Hope you bounce back soon; not fun having a bug.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. After spending the last 24 hours doing nothing but sleeping I feel so much better. Just was so behind on sleep and then getting the stomach virus just took its toll on me. Still taking it easy but feel alive again.

Momma got her stitches taken out today. She is doing GREAT!!!! Babies got a clean bill of health also. Now I will post some pics for you......since you all have been so patient with me. LOL


Here are a few group shots of them. They are already 2 weeks old!!!! The last pic is of the biggest and the littlest....can you see the difference?

Now it is time to meet Riley. He is named after our vet that took such good care of us and helped Mommy survive.

Riley was the 3rd puppy born weighing 4.0 oz. His lowest weight was 3.0 oz on day 2 and he has climbed ever since then. He is the first one to the dinner table and not a bit afraid to tell you if he is still hungry. At 2 weeks old, Riley weighs..........6.8oz!!!!

(The last 2 pics he is with the baby to show his size compared to her's.)

[Sara1130]

This is our 1st born and she is named Hope. She weighed 4.0 oz and dropped to a low of 3.0oz on day 2. She is a quiet girl but when she is hungry she will find her way too the food. Loves to cuddle....think she faked colic just so she could have extra cuddle time. Hope is the only brown one in the bunch.

At 2 weeks Hope weighs................5.7 oz!

Here are a few pics of her from today.

Those photos are great. Love the side-by-sides of the biggest and littlest. It's is amazing how far they have come! No eyes yet?

[JasmineNoelle]

They are gorgeous and I am so glad to hear that you are feeling better.

Time to meet Faith......Faith was the 2nd pup born and she weighed 3.5 oz. She dropped to a low of 3.0 oz and has been on an uphill climb since. She used to be the first one to the dinner table but decided to use her lady like manners and wait her turn. Never have a fuss from her and is just a cuddle bunny. She will be living with my mother when she is ready and yes she knows who she is. LOL

Faith weighs................5.8 oz!

(Faith and Riley are almost twins......if there wasn't the size and the sex difference they would be hard to tell apart)

[Sara1130]

Now it is time to meet the baby Grace (Gracie). She was the last one born and she weighed 3.5 oz. She was my biggest loser and she dropped to a low of 2.4 oz and stayed there for a few days. She started out as my weakest sucker but now is one of my stronger ones. She is a fighter just like her mom. She is black and tan and I think will take after mommy. She has tiny little features and just the sweetest baby there is. Yes, she is staying with me.

At 2 weeks.....baby Gracie is 4.7 oz!!!!!

(Last pic is of her with Riley....such a big difference in them)

No eyes yet....the just turned 2 weeks today so we still have a few days before they will open. Just can't believe it has already been 2 weeks and how far they all have come.

Thank you....there was a time I did not think I was going to make it. A good day's rest made the difference.
