I Love those Babies!

I love these little babies, they are so cute!!!!


'Mater is crazy and Rocco has a white face.

This is my post-pregnancy Bella






This is my favorite, so sweet!

Feeding Time

The puppies started eating regular food this week, while they still occasionally eat from their mother, it was time to start weaning them. We blend together a mixture of puppy food, puppy milk, and warm water in the blender and come up with this disgusting mush, but they love it and I just don't want to take any chances of them choking on the little puppy food pieces. They will probably get this for another week and then maybe solid and wet food mixed together. They are so crazy, when I come out with the food they all go crazy and get so excited that they step in and even get pushed into it, it's so cute. Here a re few photos but I promise to take more soon.

One of the pups sleeping, which is still their favorite thing to do.

'Mater wants to know why the puppies get all the attention, he hates not being the baby.

This is feeding time and I have to get them a bigger bowl because this is obviously not working out :)

The little one got pushed out of the way and landed right in the bowl, she didn't seem to mind as long as she was eating.

My little babies are getting so big!

Cruise!

I got an e-mail a few weeks ago advertising that a Norwegian 3-day cruise to the Bahamas was $99 leaving from Miami! We had been talking about going on another short cruise for our anniversary this year and inviting Rosie and Miguel but we just couldn't pass up this deal so we celebrated early. We had so much fun, and although I would never recommend Norwegian Cruise Line, we still had a blast! I took like 250 photos so I'll spare you that and I just added a few.




We rented scooters to ride around Nassau, so much fun! We saw so much of the island and found the prettiest beaches!



This was taken while we were driving :)

A crazy cave full of bats that we found of the road. All those little black things behind Walter's head are bats!


Walter and Miguel had fun jumping off these rocks. That water was soooooo gorgeous!

Rosie made friends with the natives



We are trying to be like our husbands


Dancing, lol

More dancing

On our way to the island




We were snorkeling, swimming, and laying out on a giant raft in the ocean so I didn't take many photos but this was the island and it was so much fun!

Our ship

All 4 of us but I thought it was done taking the photo and started to walk away, I'm a dork!


This is just to show you how red I got after the day on the island. Eeek! I used sunscreen like crazy and eventually had to put a t-shirt on, dang pale skin!

Our Little Angel Gave up the Fight

We brought her back to life when she was first born, had an IV put in her at the vet, and continued to bottle feed her but she just wasn't strong enough to live. After 5 days of life, our little Miracle finally stopped fighting. She was doing so great and eating great and then Friday night she seemed to be weak. We could tell something was wrong and decided to take her to the vet first thing in the morning but she just couldn't hold on any longer. It was very sad and we buried her in the front yard. I think maybe our child in heaven needed a playmate and she is there with them now playing and happy. I loved her very much and it was so hard to let her go, even Walter cried. We will miss her so mcuh!

We Love You!

Baby Nathaniel

This is Katie and Josh's newborn, isn't he precious! He's only three days old in those photos. Currently, he is like 4 weeks old and I have yet to take more photos. I am a terrible aunt :(

Puppy Photos!

I can't believe how much these puppies are growing and learning, it's so cute to watch! They should be opening their eyes by this weekend and soon enough they'll be able to walk! They are finally allowing me to sleep through the night with only one to two interruptions and Walter and I no longer have to sleep in shifts. They don't cry nearly as much now and I think I may actually get to sleep the entire night tonight, we'll see.

Our little miracle baby is doing great! We had to take her to the vet on Tuesday morning because she was so weak, even too weak to drink from a bottle. Apparently she had not been eating during the night so she was extremely dehydrated. They were able to put her on an IV and fed her and after several hours, we were able to pick her up. She is much stronger now and is able to eat from her mother but we feed her at least two times a day from a bottle just to make sure she is getting enough nutrients. That little girl holds a special place in our hearts :)

The rest of the puppies went to the vet yesterday and they are all fat, healthy puppies. One was born with some type of blister on it's paw and the vet said it was infected and making the paw swell so I have to feed that one antibiotics every day. Other than that, they are healthy and happy and so so cute! Here are the photos to prove it:

I love this look, poor girl is so tired!

Awwww


This one always sleeps with his tongue sticking out, I love it!


Daddy's little angel :)

She is such a doll





'Mate is always so curious about these little things that cry all the time.

He's my baby


I just can't get over how cute they are when they sleep, lol!
