Puppies are Born!

This morning at 9 AM Shelby went into labor and by 10-10:15, she had the 1st puppy!! About 4 puppies later around 2 PM, my mom was pretty sure was done... but 2 more came for a grand total of 7!!! There are 4 boys and 3 girls, so the girls in this household are still outnumbered :) The picture on the bottom is of everyone desiring to help with the birthing process, which kind of got out of hand until mom shooed us away! The one in the middle is of the puppies sleeping, and the one on the top is Shelby laying on her back nursing her babies :)

Puppies!!

Well, this has been a while since I last posted anything on here... but I think the most exciting thing in everyone's life here at the Mumper house is that Shelby is pregnant!! She is due in the next week or so... we have the whelping box all ready to go! Here are some pictures of Shelby as a puppy... hopefully her puppies will be as cute as she!

Our Last Day With Nan and Pop :(

We are very sad to have say goodbye early tomorrow morning to Nan and Pop... we keep praying that somehow this heavy rain will prevent them from flying from LAX! We enjoyed a nice dinner tonight at a restaurant and went around the table and discussed our highlights from our 2 weeks together... here are some pictures of from the dinner... my favorite is Pop and Mom laughing!

Nan and Pop- our second trip

On January 2nd we headed down to the L.A Zoo! We saw everything from gorillas, zebras, seals, and kimono dragons to crocodiles and snow leopards. This was a special visit because the last time Jared was at the Zoo was when he was 5 months, so he really had a great time seeing and identifying all the different animals. There where several times that we couldn't see the animals because they where hiding, so Pop used his infamous "animal calls" to call them into view! (We just pretended we didn't know him!) No, just kidding!

On the way home we decided to stop by the famous burger place: In-N-Out. Here's a picture of everyone chowing down on their burgers:
