Yesterday was the babies 5 week birthday. It was our first day outside and some of the babies were a little unsure at first but they they were all running around barking and smelling the fresh (VERY WINDY) air.
We have ordered the babies shots so they will get here this weekend. I cannot get over how fast they are all growing. We finally moved the babies out to the living room on Sunday and I can honestly say that is the longest any litter stayed in our bedroom. They typically get a bit rowdy approx 3AM, just when you are in that nice deep sleep and then Wrestle Mania 9000 begins. We are trying to find some cool Halloween costumes for the babies for some cute pictures.
Puppies had their first taste of pumpkin yesterday, some may have seen it on the webcam, they absolutely loved it.
They are all still trying to get used to the water bottle, it is a funny sight when they first learn how to use it. UMM maybe I should chew on the weird metal thing, no let me lick the glass. They will get it soon. I don't like leaving water bowls down at the bottom of the duplex as it is not very sanitary with 8 pups all trying to step in it, then they try to swim and finally the dump ALL the water out, but for now I have to keep putting some water bowls in there for them. Pups are now not relying on mom as much and looking forward to their "big boy/big girl" food. Splash is just the best mom, the last few times I put her with the babies, she decided she was a bird and offered her food to them. I informed Splash that the babies are just fine and they are very well fed.
Here are a few pics I snapped of the babies tonight after they were fed and once again had their big trip outside. I was sitting with them and some of them ventured a bit further than yesterday. Hopefully it will get cooler soon so we can enjoy more outside time with them. It is just too hot during the day right now.
