2 Weeks Old: 3 Eyes Open

The boy was the 1st to open his eyes. This is our freezer as a background. I rather like it. I may have to get a steel background to take photos. LOL Nathan was hogging this puppy so he sees that it him who is here for them. 

I was also playing with the lighting when taking photos. Some are true colours and some are a bit washed out. 

The girl was the 2nd to have her eyes open. Everyone else is completely closed or they have slits. She looks rather intense. It's as if she is saying - really?

This is the 3rd one - a boy with his eyes open. He is the largest of teh crew but no by much. If I hear nathan say again - I am your daddy... I am the 1st human you see, I will swat him one. 

The pups are now in a spot where Ali and Sky was in and their pen is taken down. More on the main page on how that is going and look for updates on Cinnamon and Ella's page.

Here is the gallery.

These pups are walking around for short distances. They are also unfortunately holding on to the milkstation and sometimes taking a ride out of the box. I am going to put more padding out as I do not want to take them out of the whelping box yet.

2 of them are now over a pound. The smallest is just below 14oz sitting at 13-7/8oz. 

I have caught them playing with each other despite their eyes being closed. How fascinating. 

Exciting times are coming!

Be sure to check out the videos.

I guess that was the girl's first glimpse of light. Looks like she's saying, "What's that all about?" heh!

Darlah you are so funny! Thinking of swating Nathan for being possessive of the puppies.
It is interesting that they try to play among themselves with eyes closed. That doesn’t happen a lot, is that true?

That is true. They usually do not play till eyes are open but this crew are sniffing machines. They use their nose to find their mom and siblings quite well and have done so since they were born.

Love the heart shape on #1 boy's tummy! ❤️
