Merry Christmas!!

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas, my boys are going to their dads at 4pm - so im going out for a meal tonight and a few drinks!!! They are coming home at 3pm tomorrow to open their presents from me, lucky little boys they get to make 2 lists, I would prefer them to be with me first thing in the morning but you have to be adult about these things and since they were with me last year its daddys turn this year and we both love them the same so got to be fair, I might pop up in the morning.

Tutorial Site

I scrap tags for pleasure, not to make any money, it is my hope that by following my tutorials it will give you all a insight into how I tag and hopefully be able to create cutie things by yourselves, this is how I learnt in the first place, I am no artist.

I have put up most of the tutorials that were on before, all these kits have been purchased by me, are freebies or have been sent to me by the scrapkit makers themselves.

Please keep with me and I will hopefully I will add more and more tuts in the following weeks, months, years to come.

Keep safe, Hugs, Michelle.x.

Update

Sorry guys having problems with the tut site, keep it bookmarked it will probably be back sometime in the new year.

James Bond

Took the boys to see the new Bond movie this afternoon, the movie was good - I started watching it when they were in Italy - thats because the trailers went on for so long I feel asleep before the movie even started and no-one woke me up!! However I did enjoy, so if you get the chance to go see Bond in action then get yourself down to the cinema.

Now Im waiting for someone to come and look at Bertie the last pup to sell.

A Few Changes

Ive been playing today so I made a new blog set from the lovely Lliella scrapkit.

Anyway as you who are members of MSN groups will be aware that they are closing the groups early next year, well its made me move, I've been wanting to get away from MSN groups for ages - So my kind friend Miranda, has been working her socks off setting up a Website to host all my tuts, I never realised I had done so many but there must be 150, anyway she has done a fab job and im so pleased, just a few tweaks and the new site address will be revealed!

For those who have been following the puppies they are doing fine and I will try get some photo's uploaded soon, they are so cute and they are coming out of their pen now and starting to play.

Hugs Michelle.x.

I Couldnt resist

BB

This is BB my little baby that is staying with me

Rainbow Gate.........

Little princess went to rainbow gate last night, I took her back to the vets and there was no hope for her - the kind vet suggested that she be put to sleep, This may sound like i am a bit soft but its amazing how attached you can become to these wee little doggies in just a short space of time.

The other 4 puppies, 2 girls and 2 boys are doing great, they have big fat bellies and black noses now, I can see that there little eyes are opening and can only imagine the fun that is instore for us over the coming weeks, we have put up a saftey gate and the doggy pen will be coming out soon, lol.

Hugs

Puppy Update!!

Well we now have 4 really big fat pups and 1 extra small one - ive taken the small to the vets this morning, he is worried that she is not gaining wait, so she is having antibiotic medicine twice a day and fed with welpi every 2 hours, we are going to leave her until wednesday and see if she gains weight, she only weights 4oz where as the others are 14 oz, if she doesnt gain weight then we will have to do the horrible deed, but as the vet said we have done everything we can for her. Eight pups was far too many for her to deal with but she is doing great now and is a fab mummy.


On a brighter note the boys have chosen which puppy to keep, she is going to be called BB (Bella's Babe) and here she is

Here is mummy with pups

Here is little and large!

Update

Last night I went in the bath, when i got out I went to check on the pups and another had died, this wasnt the weakest one that is left but one of the strong big ones, my only conclusion is that Bella had overlaid him, so now were down to 5 puppies, 3 girls & 2 boys, its such a shame but I think thats nature.

Today I have moved them from my bedroom into the kitchen where i can keep a better eye on them, plus my bedroom was getting smelly, lol

And Another One

Now the weak little boy has died, so that is one girl and one boy that has died this morning, Harry will be so upset when he gets home he really fell for the little girl and had chosen her to keep.

Bella had been outside digging holes in the back, I think she must have known what was happening and when i took the last dead baby boy away she was shaking so I gave her a doggy treat and that took her mind of it while i sorted it out.

Anyway on a plus note, the six remaining babies all appear to be strong, one is a little smaller than the others but she is feeding from mum fine so im not worried I will just watch her, but she was one of the small ones of the three so I guess she is going to be the one that survives.

Hugs

Sad News......

The little puppy that we had been trying to feed died this morning, I know its natures way but it is still so sad.......

More Puppy Photo's

If this little princess survives then she is mine!

Notice the big fat one on top?

Update!!

I dont know when this happened but I just counted the pups to make sure she wasnt overlaying any and there is now 8!!! Im going to ring my vet in the morning to see if I need to help feeding them.

Hugs Pints.x.

Aww!!!!

This is the first little girl born!

Arrived!!!!!!!!!!

She started at 4am, panting, and now we have 7 pups - the norm for her breed is 4! I hope they all survive, the first 2 looked really fat and the others are alot smaller but they are all making alot of noise im hoping they are going to be ok.

4 girls and 3 boys.
