Danes in the Grove - puppy pictures

Oh my they are getting so big & most of them have their eyes open.  The two biggest boys are slacking on the job.  I am sure they will start to open tomorrow.  Love seeing them get bigger...and can't wait to really start playing with them.  Love my little babies.  All pictures & stories can be seen on FB @ Danes in the Grove

It was a week yesterday since the birth of these precious babies.  All are doing so well & getting bigger everyday.  "Girlie Girl" has started opening her eyes at day 6...amazing.  The boys are trudging behind in that department.  She is still the smallest but I am thinking she is going to kick the boys butt when they get older.  Strong little thing that she is.  One of the puppies has found a home.  He was formally known at puppy #6 or "Hoss" but now he is known by Ollie, short for Oliver.  He is the biggest and oh my goodness so laid back.  However last night he was making some odd noises.  Something between a growl, a bark & a cry...all of this while he was sleeping, silly baby.  Here are the latest pics of these precious little ones.

Well the week started out with a bang.  Sunday Ruby went into labor and very quickly & without any hiccups she delivered 7 healthy babies.  6 boys & 1 girl.  Here are 3 of the babies.  I had to stop because contrary to what I want to do the puppies were demanding their dinner so me & my camera left them alone.  They are soooo sweet.  Day 3 below :0)

Elf in Wood - cross stitch

Page 8 of 36 is now complete.  This will more than likely be the last update of this one until next year.  About to have 2 litters & with the other WIP (Dragon Rip & Periwinkle) I don't think there is any time left this year.  It has been absolutely wonderful stitching this one.  I love the type of fabric I have for this one, the colors of the threads & just really how lovely this piece of work is.  Well here it is :0)
