Boleyn's Xray : Baby News!

So our xray this week has shown us what looks like 4 bright big and beautiful babies! Our due date has been firmed up to the 17th or 18th of July (though only that belly knows the real day!)! I will be sure to send out an update with any new information as we go - but should have warm tidings of bouncing babies by Wednesday next week.
More soon...

Boleyn x Viking: Next week the fun begins!

So here it is: our first official update - Boleyn has her xray scheduled for Tuesday which will give us an approximate head count and maybe even let us know a more exact date for pups to be born! Our Bella Boleyn is starting to get uncomfotable these days and is kind of in the '8 month' phase we go through as women:... is it almost time yet?! She's been healthy and gaining nicely throughout her pregnancy and started to show a little early so for everyone who is waiting in the wings to see who we have, but didn't manage to get in on official reservations spots, we have hope yet for a couple of amazing pups like last years for some. For the moment, I'm sticking with my original projection of the 15th - 18th of July, but I'll reserve final guesstimate for after xrays when we can all have fun counting little heads and spines and see how solid they are (the more solid on the xray the closer to due date). A birthdate of July 15th would land us for a mid-September home time for those of you planning time off with pups... but if you can hold off another week or two to book those dates I can firm those up when the pups arrive. I'm getting very excited to see what combination of blue brindle pieds and blue fawn pieds we'll have this year and to start my sleep deprive Rorschach interpretations. ;) Everyone cross fingers and toes (so to speak) and join us in our little chant for this pregnancy: seven, seven, seven. (I'll settle for healthy healthy healthy, and just like last year - big, beautiful, robust and great natured!) More soon....
