Day 28 - Four weeks old now.
The spots are mostly complete, found a blue worm & hedgehog toy and discovered real food. I also realized that Troi's name is spelled with an "i" and not a "y".
Chow Time - Troi wears her dinner well doesn't she?
Everybody dig in!!!
A nap with Mom
We love our blue worm, he's such a snuggle buddy.

That's all for now. I hope to have some outside shots soon but mother nature hates me. When the pups were too young to be outside it was nice but now that they are older and ready to be out and having fun it's too hot. Add that to the fact that we haven't gotten significant rain all summer and when I wanted to build a play pen for the puppies I was rained out 2 Saturdays in a row. Mother nature hates me.
Day 19 - Here's Looking at You
First some new head shots with eyes -

Now that we have our eyes open we are starting to explore a bit.
But when all is said and done there's nothing like a nice nap.
More soon ...
Day 11
This has been a week of eating, sleeping and growing. Here's several pictures I took this week at random. If you look closely you'll see the first signs of the spots coming out.
Fiona looks so happy with her babies.
Time for a bath
A late night snack
Mom's off taking a break.
Another visit to the milk bar, never say never again.
Now here are some new head shots and and a few other pictures we took today. Notice how much bigger they are now relative to my hands. When they were born they weighed from 9 to 12 1/4 ounces and today they weighed from 1 pound 6 1/4 to 1 pound 12 1/8 ounces. It takes a lot of trips to the milk bar to gain weight like that.

Finished shopping heading to the check out.
Nap time, see the spots?
One more trip to the milk bar.
That's all for now. The pups should be getting their eyes open in the next few days. Then they will start exploring and playing with each other. Additionally in the next week you will begin to see the spots quite clearly so there will be more pictures.
