An 'almost' pregnancy confirmation is not what anyone wants to hear I know I know! I was trying to delay writing this to get a few more hours behind us so hopefully I could get better photos a bit later, but no such luck unfortunately. Isla is a doll and rolls right over for me so I can run my ultrasound over her as many times as I want/need to. These scans show very hopeful images though! but I am not going to say 100% confirmation at this time. Egg implantation only takes place on days 18-22 and these images were only taken on day 23 so still VERY early. The definition in these shots look very promising though for being so early. So by next week I will feel way more confident about calling a definite confirmation on this pregnancy. Unfortunately with Leia being 10 days behind Isla we are going to miss even an early confirmation by next week so we'll have to wait 2 more weeks to confirmation her pregnancy. Exciting times ahead!


I tell them all about the amazing families on board and how beautiful all their pups will be. We chat into the night about what everyone's guesses are on puppy count. Isla says she is having 11 and Leia is having 7. Anya says 9 & 6, Neema says each are having 48 and Tonka says "Doesn't matter as long as they all look like me"! ha! ok girls we'll see if you are right...Anya will be close, Neema is off her rocker and Tonka is SO being a dad!



Tonka is such a love, I hope his pups continuing to be just like the ones he's already produced. Calm, collected, laid back, aware, sweet, extremely snuggly, exceptionally easy and looks to die for. Both Isla and Leia pups are endlessly amazing and their pups have made families beyond thrilled. SO excited for more of these beautiful pups ahead!



Lots of sunshine the past few days which has been such a nice break from all the rain! The dogs showing off not only how attached they are to me but just how snuggly they are as well. I stop and stand still for a brief moment in the yard and they are planted immediately right at my feet, such loyal loves.


I have a whole lot more photos this week then I have news so here you go! more!

Anya being goofy, beautiful and then flat out WEIRD! Neema says "hey mom...I think she's dead!" as Anya's eyes flash around "does anyone notice?"



The love of a great bootie shot, face shot and of course the love of the best ball on earth. The girls posing knowing full well they are beautiful. Leia always crawling in my jumper and just staying there as long as I'll let her. Anya with her signature sit on my sister shot and Leia dreaming of more beautiful babies ahead.



I'll run the ultrasound again in a couple of days on Isla and am hopeful for clearer pictures then. For now we all send our very best to you all. Until next week!
