I weighed all of the puppies this evening. They all weighed in at 1.5 lbs, which means that they weigh between 1.5 and 2.0 lbs... So, they have gained ~ 25% of their birth weight.
Here is our Purple Girl. Purple Girl is still the adventurer, and she is quite the talker. She makes the most interesting sounds! I have caught her in this pose a number of times. She sure loves he mommy!
As you may be figuring out, a common theme in this post is snuggling with Holly. Here is our Red Boy -- going for his mommy. He was snuggling between her forelegs (no, not getting ready to nurse ...)
Pink Girl is actually visible in this picture, behind Holly's head. Holly is using Pink Girl as a pillow! Look at Pink Girl's markings. They continue to lighten at a much faster rate than those of all of the other puppies. Hmmm ... I wonder what that means?
Here is Green Boy, snuggling up with Holly's forepaws. (See, I told you that was a common theme today!) Here he looks so sweet, but look out when it comes to nursing!
To the left is our Yellow Girl. I think Yellow Girl has changed the most this week. She is quite determined to get what she needs, particularly when it comes to nursing (as you will see below). Her markings have really changed color. Here she is snuggled in against Holly's side.
And here is Orange Girl! She is a real sweetie. Orange Girl has probably gained the most weight. She was the darkest a week ago, and is probably still not as light as the others -- but check out the markings!
For two days I have been trying to upload a video. It is entitled "Feeding Frenzy". Yellow Girl and Pink Girl are a hoot. Anyway, that's why I haven't posted in awhile. Until next time!
