5 1/2 weeks!

I have been too busy and too tired to blog lately, but finally had some spare time today to organize some pictures and an update.  The pups are just wonderful.  They are growing so much - eating solid foods, playing, bouncing off the walls of their pen, and just generally being lovable and charming.  Little personalities are budding and showing through.  The babies are about 5 1/2 weeks old now.  Amazing. 

We've re-done the puppy room - took out the whelping box, set up a sleepy/play area and a potty area.  The pups are learning to go potty in the right place, and clean-up has become much easier.  Thank goodness!

Feeding has evolved quite a bit too...the pups are now eating a mixture of ground-up kibble, puppy formula/2nd Step formula, and water.  They LOVE the new food - mowing it down with great enthusiasm. 

Cocoa and Kidney both have new homes lined up...  Cocoa's destined for Maui and Kidney is going to the Big Island.  There are a few other pup/potential owner matches that are almost set as well.  It's going to be so sad saying goodbye to these babies.  They have captured our hearts. 

A few pictures and videos from today...
