People keep telling me that once the baby comes I'll basically forget about the pups. Rest assured, I will not.
I'd like to introduce you to my "sister". Miss Chloe. She is my mom's dog. Her and Ozzy used to be lovers. She is about a year younger than Ozzy. She has always been a young at heart kinda gal.
She can tear apart any toy in less than 5 minutes. Her primary mission is to get the squeaker out.
Chloe has the diabetes. Mom has to give her a shot every morning and night. She's stayed with us before when mom and dad went out of town and couldn't take her with them. I can give her her meds too.
She is even more spoiled than any of my pups. She let's mom and dad live with her basically. It's her house. They just pay the bills for her.
She gets free range of the house while they are at work. This is her spot of choice:
On the back of the couch. Whenever I talk to mom, I always ask her, "What's Chloe doing?" She'll always say, "Laying on the couch."
She loves to play with Mister Vinnie, for awhile. Her and Ozzy like to take naps together. And I think she is jealous of Miss Princess because she's pretty too. Chloe likes to be #1.
See, spoiled.
But, she's a good girl.
Mister Vinnie, he's been pretty good lately. He's a daddy's boy, of course. Matt had drill this past weekend. Poor little Vinnie walked around all weekend kind of in a daze. Like, a where-is-my-daddy-at daze. When Matt came home, Vinnie didn't even know who I was.
Vinnie's favorite thing to do right now besides follow Matt around is to lay on or near my stomach. He'll be a good big brother.
Miss Princess had surgery between Christmas and New Year's. She had a lump on her breast that had to be removed. The vet said it wasn't cancerous and that they shouldn't come back. He said it had something to do with us getting her fixed when she was older.
But she did good with the surgery. She was supposed to take it easy for 3 days but she didn't.
Ozzy, well he's been Ozzy. He likes to nap and rough house with his brother. I don't think he's too pumped about this "baby sister" thing. He's always been a mommy's boy.
I go to the doctor tomorrow. I feel the baby kick all the time. I don't think she sleeps much during the day but she does let me sleep at night, for now.

Awww, those puppies are so adorable! I don't think you'll forget about the dogs, but they will definitely be down a peg. That's usually how it works.
Adorable! I'm actually afraid of this very thing. Not that I'll forget about them, but that I won't have as much time for them and they won't understand. Piper and Bella are my children so I guess it's only natural that I would feel this way. Every mom I've talked to gets nervous about the change in relationship with their oldest once another one comes along...They guilt me so badly with those sweet faces!!! I know I won't be able to take them on their long walks or their long dog park trips, at the drop of a hat, once Baby "G" arrives but I hope I can still maintain some resemblance of our normal day to day:)
I always love puppy posts. I think people that say you will forget about the pups are just plain dumb and should never be allowed to own pets. Yes, the baby will get a lot of attention, but that just means you find new ways to give attention to the puppies!!! Can't wait to see baby /puppy pictures when the time comes :-)
i hate how people think we forget about the pets ... they were, after all, our FIRST babies, right? you wont get rid of your baby girl when baby number two comes rolling around. so why would we get rid of our pets. that's so bothersome to me.
but .. your pups are adorable. remember when vinny was a itty puppy!? he was so cute. yeah, your baby girl will grow up that quick too ... trust me. :/
I heard that from people too. I still love Lexi just as much as I did before Emma. She's a GREAT big sister!
I love the pics of the pooches! They are all so adorable!
Aw, I'm glad to hear that their all doing well!
