Kit says she loves Soufflé!

I am sitting with Kit in my office while she inhales a make-shift, microwave soufflé atop kibble.

After watching Kit not eat much or seem very interested in her meals yesterday and this morning, I decided to make her something she would probably love. Kit has always adored eggs and with a bit of heavy whipping cream standing in for a sauce, a microwave soufflé was born. She wolfed down a large first serving and followed me to the kitchen, eyes pleading for more. I was very happy to see her manage a good part of a second serving before becoming too full and falling asleep next to her bowl.

By the way, Kit is generous and shares her left-overs with her 3 pack members, Gamera, Mira & Ursa. I can hear them eagerly waiting outside the office door right now, as dogs seem to have a psychic ability to tell when someone else is finished eating.

Kit's belly grows everyday and last night I imagined that I felt a pup moving inside her. Because she is still more than 2 weeks away from whelping, what I felt was more likely to be gas than a pup, but it was still fun to pretend and prepare for feeling the real thing.

It snowed all day today and after work I took some shots of Kit and the pack outside in the snow in hopes of showing Kit's current belly size. I left my download cords at the office, so will have to wait until tomorrow to post a photo of Kit in the snow. Sadly, it was overcast, so it won't be the most exciting photo, but it should give you a sense of her size.

Kit is due for a tidying up, pre-puppies grooming. This weekend I plan to get out my clippers and sheers for Kit's "beauty shop" experience. I will be sure to take her photo after she is looking lovely and post the photo this weekend.
