Elsie's first litter. One boy. One Girl.
 sleepy mommy
elsie's fort
fat mom ready to end the pregnancy part
uncle ernie
day one...
aww
she looks way too happy for this
itty bitty!
we've gone belly-side-up
there's a lot of sleeping involved...
everything's so tiny!
happier mom
girl on the left, boy on the right
this is the boy. he's lazy and likes to sleep on his back.
day four... mining for milk
the boy (temporarily dubbed "carl") is always verrrrry comfortable
the girl ("stella"), has to be held like a baby to settle down and stop whining
what a pudge
secret puppy (day seven)
butts!
where's da bebe?
there he is!
kisses for stella (day nine)
conked out
mom and explorative carl
like one of those bear area rugs... 'cept miniature
the fight for milk
little booger was eating me!
oh no... not the stairs
mom found his tickle spot
getting too wiggly even for sitting photos
little bear
transitioning from milk to water
but still like "substitute" milk... i.e. powdered milk for puppies
learning to be a kitchen rug
rawr!
it's ridiculous how fast they grow
which is exactly what elsie thinks
bath time!
he's actually biting, not licking...
stella was pooped!
and just fell asleep in the towel :)
puppy popsicle
2 puppies + teeth = lauren with lots of bite marks
my little boy, carl
"swimming"
stella the cartoon doggie!
cawrrrrel!
get off my foot
happy elsie!
