出産を終えたエマ、
子供達の側をず～っと離れずに授乳していましたが、
我が地方で初雪が降った今朝
久しぶりに外の空気を吸いました～
After giving birth to 12 puppies,
Emma hasn't been away from them long.
But this morning, after about a week,
Emma stepped outside for the fresh air
to the slightly white ground
by the first flakes of snow of this year~!
久しぶりにエマに会う大人達．．．
Our big ones haven't seen her a while...
が、一通りの挨拶とトイレを済ませた後は
とっととパピー達のもとへ帰っていきましたけどね
やはり、さすが母親です
Well... Emma greeted with them in quick turn
and finished her stuff,
she didn't hesitate to go back to her puppies!
There's NO doubt that
she is a good mother.
パピー達が産まれて今日で６日目ですが、
我が家の大人達は
いまだにパピー達に会えません．．．
It's already sixth day after puppies' born
but our big ones still doesn't have any chance
to meet them...
仕方ないので
外で鬱憤を晴らしています．．．
They don't have any choice about it
so they take that frustration out
when they got outside...
おまけに、私が十分な時間をみんなと一緒に過ごせないので．．．
AND, I don't have time to spend enough time with them...
愛が足りないと．．．
so, not enough of my love...
お互いに慰めあってます．．．
they seem to deepen their love to each other...
私の服についているパピー達のにおいをしつこく確認するデューク．．．
Duke didn't miss any chance to check any kind of puppy smell
on my clothes...
まっ、かなり寒くなったので
みんなかなり活動的になってます
It got quite cold these days and
THAT suits them well!
So they are active enough outside.
そうそう、面白い写真が撮れたので．．．
By the way,
I've got some funny photos by accident...
これは２年前に撮った写真
This was taken 2 years ago.
そして今日．．．
And today...
バーティミアスが叔父さんになったわけだ．．．
No wonder, our Bartimaeus became an uncle already...
Lots of beautiful Violets for my dear Sebastian
待ちに待った仔犬達が産まれました～！
なんと
合計１２頭．．．
エマ、がんばった
Finally, our beautiful puppies arrived!
Guess how many puppies we have?!
TWELVE PUPPIES!
Good job, Emma!
仔犬の詳しい様子は後ほど仔犬達の成長記録の方へアップします☆
I'm gonna show you some detailed photos in baby blog later on.
１４日午前２時．．．
エマに起こされたので、
もう出産か
と思って待機
我が母上や妹まで起こして
さんざん期待させておきながら
みんなが起きてエマをチヤホヤすると．．．
2 A.M. on 14th of December,
Emma woke me up as if to say
babies coming out
so I got up quickly and waited...
Emma woke even my mother and sister up, too!
And when all of us was treating her like a queen,
she started...
スヤスヤとお休みになり始めました．．．
to sleep completely satisfied...
エマ： 「何か文句ある？！」
Emma: "What?! What's wrong?!"
午前様に無理なら、
この調子だと夕方だな
と思って待機．．．
Well...
If early in the morning was false alarm,
then it must be in the evening for sure!
And been waiting...
しっかりとご飯を食べて、
この有様．．．
She even ate her dinner and
like this...
エマ： 「そんなに思うようにはいかないわっ！」
Emma: "That's what YOU think, hum!"
はいはい、
忍耐強く待つことにします
Ok, Ok,
I will wait patiently then.
エマちゃん、少しお散歩に行きたいと、
特別に少しだけお散歩に行ってきました♪
Emma wanted to take a little walk,
so I took her for a short turn.
エマの中にいる可愛い子供達が出てくるのは
今か今かと待っているけど
もう少しだけ、待っていないといけないようです☆
I've been waiting for Emma's babies arrival
but seems I have to be patient a little longer...☆
で、今夜のお産室使用者は．．．
Well... the one who used the baby house tonight was...
デューク．．．！
Duke...!
ヴァイオラはかなりの不満顔．．．
ヴァイオラ：「そこは私の場所なのに．．．！」
Ha! Viola was protesting...!
Saying, "That's supposed to be MY place...!"
エマは賢くも別のソファでゆるりとしています
Emma was wisely resting on the different sofa.
バーティミアス： 「ねぇ、ぼくもエマみたいにChieママに特別に甘えたいなぁ～．．．」
Bartimaeus: "Mommy, I wan' your special attention like Emma~..."
最近エマと一緒に遊んでもらえないバーティミアス、ちょっぴり寂しそうです．．．
My attention have to be upon Emma most of the time,
and Bartimaeus doesn't have Emma to play with...
Must feeling a bit left alone...
エマのお産まで、あと少し！
I guess VERY SOON, Emma's babies arrive!
お産箱も用意したし、
パピースペースも用意した
もう残すはエマのお産を待つのみ
I finally finished preparing to have puppies!
And now waiting to actually have Emma's babies!
ヴァイオラがどうしても子供を産みたいらしい．．．
Umm... Viola insisted to have her babies...
次はヴァイオラの番だからね
でも、今回母親になるのはエマだから．．．
Well, not this time but next time it's you, Viola...
Just wait for your turn, Viola...
セバスティアンがいなくなった悲しみにどっぷりはまっている暇もなく
エマちゃんの妊娠が確実となりました～！
Didn't even go over a month before my dear Sebastian died, but
now it's certain that my Emma is pregnant!
ボルゾイは体が大きいので、いまいち妊娠しているのが上の写真では判りづらいかな？？？
でも、上から見るとこんな感じ．．．
Well, the body size of Borzoi is super large and may not be clear to you in picture above...
Hmm, got a photo from her top, and it's like this...
ん～、やっぱりいまいち変わりなしのよう？！．．．
Hmmm, still not quite clear?!
でも、顔の表情がね！
Well, see her face, though! 
今までは少女のような表情だったのが．．．
Getting more like a mother than a girl now...
綺麗になって母親の顔になってきたと思いませんか？
Her facial feature became more and more beautiful and motherly,
don' you think?!
おまけに、座り方が．．．後ろから見ると「デンっ」といった感じ．．．
Besides, her way of sitting became more and more... heavy...
エマ： 「なによぉ～．．．何見てるの～？！」
Emma: "What?! What are you looking at?!"
参考までに、これは妊婦ではありません．．．
シャルのいつもの後姿．．．
For just additional information, this is not a pregnant girl's back side...
But usual Shall's sitting feature...
エマちゃん、もう後１週間もすれば立派な母親になる予定です
予定日は１３~１４日☆
産まれたら、子犬たちの成長記録に更新していきますね
Emma's expecting her babies around 13th to 14th of this month!
Will be fun for sure!
Once our lovely babies come, I'll updating some photos in babies blog,
so check it out!
For the memory of my dear Sebastian.
