PUPPIES PUPPIES PUPPIES...

Today has been a very special day for us.  Our sweet little doggy, Sophie had her tiny puppies.  This is her first batch and she only weighs 10 pounds so we thought she might have 3 or 4.  She surprised us all with 6 beautiful little shorkies.  They are shitzu, yorkie mixed pups.  3 are spotted 3 are black.  It was a very emotional day for the kids!  John had just taken them to school when I noticed she was licking like crazy.  I called her name and when she looked up there was the cutest little pup.  I had my mom go get the kids, they couldn't miss this.  

Sitting in the bathroom for hours together was so much fun.
Sammy wrote down the time each puppy took its first breath.
One puppy was not breathing right away, we were all worried.  I looked over and my two boys are kneeling, praying by Sophie.  I had my camera right there and shot this adorable picture.  The Faith of these little boys is amazing.
They were fascinated all day.  The first one born at 8:10 the last at 2:30

Now that we are friends I thought it would be ok if I commented :) Those puppies are so-o cute! I am glad everything worked out and the puppies are all healthy. Let's hang out sometime soon (with Lisa of course) :)

Your boys praying is the sweetest thing. I love those moments when you see their sweet and simple faith. What sweet puppies! I wish we were in the market. I won't have dogs until we have a yard.

That is the cutest thing ever (your boys praying). I am so glad you were able to capture that. I remember growing up and experiencing that same thing, fun memories!
