uh oh!

I only have 5 different colors of rick rack for puppies. Well, 6 if you count white, but I hate using white. Have red, blue yellow, pink, kelly green and baby blue. Let's see... purple, dark blue, maybe another green?

I did buy narrower for Fada's babies. They will be green and red (of course!)

OMIGOD!

Let's just say, 8 tiny reindeer are not enough names....






Neat is nearly 7 years old and this was a frozen semen breeding. This a tad more than I expected...

Two for Miss Fada.

Ready!

Okay, so I'm getting antsy now... Started taking temp on Fada, will start Neat in a day or two. Have supplies basically ready, all bedding laundered, let's have puppies!

X-ray is not till 4PM tomorrow, so won't have any idea of number till then, but it's time to think about names! Linda is okay with reindeer names. I truly do NOT believe we have more than 8, and likely not that many. So... what is everyone's favorite reindeer name? (boys and girls?)

My basement/family room on Friday...

...and then on Saturday.

Neat's half of the "maternity ward."

"Aha" says Neat. NOW I know why my waist is gone! Fada, on the other hand, is still confused.

December 16, 12 days to go?

Linda refuses to get her hopes up, after the disappointment last litter, but even my husband is sure Neat is still pregnant!

While Fada appears to have leveled off a little in her girth expansion, Neat appears to be a little bigger every day...
