4 Weeks Old

Lowri - My baby, Rune, is four weeks old.  She is really cute.  Kevin loves her.  I am so glad, because right now, I am snoozing on the couch with TM.  Kevin is babysitting.  They played really hard for a while.  Rune did LOTS of growling.  Now they are both sleeping.  I am very happy to get some time off.  Rune has some SHARP teeth.

Kevin - I don't mind babysitting.  It is what older kids do for their siblings.  I am waiting for Rune to grow up some more so we can play chase.  I love that game.  Here are some pictures of Lowri with Rune. 

Three Weeks old

Lowri - Rune is three weeks old now.  Her first video wouldn't load so TM will work on that.  She is a cutie if I do say so myself.

Kevin - the second video is of ME with Rune.  TM is working on that one too.

Whoo hoo!  TM figured it out!

Busy Weekend at the Farm

Lowri - We got to the farm tonight and TM and PR went to work.  They are ripping out the carpet and PR is going to put down a new laminate floor.  We got locked up and they spent the next several hours ripping up carpet.  All I have to say is that a LOT of dirt can sift through carpet in 15 years - ewww!  Good thing my baby is tucked safely in a corner away from all that flying dirt.

Kevin - I am snuggled in TM's lap.  I like it when Lowri is stuck in the corner with a baby!  Speaking of which, here are the latest pictures.

Food!

Lowri - TM was making dog food and I was stuck in the bedroom!  I could HEAR her.  She even had the TV on to disguise the noise of the grinder.  It didn't work!  I could smell all that glorious food.  TM used a whole pork loin in our food this time.  Pounds and pounds of it.  It was kind of like I had slain a boar and my chef carved it up for me.

I don't think TM really meant to give us the pork loin, but her freezer had partially died.  When she discovered it, some stuff was thawed, some was partially frozen and some was clear frozen.  TM threw some out and declared the rest was all for ME.  I love TM!

Oh yeah, the baby is two weeks old.  Her eyes are open and she can hear.  But the food...

Kevin - I got to help TM clean it up.  I wasn't locked up in a bedroom.  I am the good dog.

Two weeks old.

Had a bath and a pedicure.

Is it supper time yet?

Day 5

Lowri - I think my baby might be perfect.  She is so sweet and such a snuggler.

Kevin - I like that I get to hang with TM on the sofa.  Lowri can't come up as she is locked in with "Miss Perfect".  TM and I spend lots of time snuggling.  It is great.

Chubbs on Day 4

Lowri - TM is calling my baby Chubbs.  I don't think I like it, but I do understand.  She has a name picked out for the baby, but...If my child is a fluffy, TM doesn't plan on keeping her.  There is a 25% chance that will happen.  TM is afraid of getting too attached if she gives my baby a real name.  Here is today's picture.  Chubbs already weighs 1 pound 5 ounces.  That is a lot for a four-day-old Cardigan puppy.

My Baby Girl

Lowri - My baby girl arrived yesterday.  TM took me to the vet's office in Knoxville.  They poked and prodded me for just a minute or two then whisked me away from TM.  Next thing I knew, TM was petting on me and my baby girl was getting her first meal.  My belly hurts and TM won't let me lick it.  She does give me good drugs though. 

When we got home, TM weighed my baby - 14.1 ounces.  Then she let me out of the car and I peed and peed.  TM then picked me up and carried me to my baby.  Good thing too, I was still wobbly.  I saw my baby girl.  She is adorable!  I licked and licked her.  TM kept giving me calcium tablets.  Finally I started to chill out.  I have to say, one baby is WAY less work than nine.

Kevin - I have barely seen the little girl.  TM is keeping me out of the puppy room.  Come to think of it, I have barely gotten to see TM.  She assures me that will change.
