Well, the pups are all settled into their new homes and seem to have transitioned very well.  One Abby) is coming back for a short visit during the American Thanksgiving holiday so it will be nice to have a little pup around again for a few days!  So life is pretty much back to normal around here...and as you can see, that means treats for all! 

Hard to believe that 8 weeks is already here!  The puppies go for their first vaccines and vet check in the morning and Elvis leaves the nest tomorrow evening, followed by the others on Sat and Sunday.  The house will be very quiet...well as quiet as it can be with OUR family.  The pups were running around the kitchen like little lunatics tonight...having just SO much fun!

I have waited a bit too long to try for the group shot of the babies...so will give it some attempts today but when they get this old...it is REALLY hard to get a photo of all of them together....I will undoubtebly end up with lots of shots like this one...Action shots of puppies spilling out of the basket.  But we will try!

I was playing around with picassa and managed to get a neat effect going with this shot....its not too often that the babies stay still enough to get one like this!

He did great!  He showed quite well despite being obviously very nervous and came away with his first two points!

This gorgeous shot was taken of Elvis by his Dad last night when they came to visit.  He is such a photogenic little man!  I might have to ask their permission to put this one up in my house!  They had a good cuddle with Elvis and are super excited to take him home in another few weeks.

What a nice day it was yesterday!  The babies headed outside for the first time to explore.  They were a bit nervious and were not too sure of things, so we did not stay outside for too long, but they did great overall!

When the fall presents us with beautiful warm days, it is to be taken full advantage of, especially when our winters are so long.  Here is a picture taken at one of our many amazing off leash parks.  Look at the big smile on Myiah!

Now the puppies are old enough to start playing with each other, getting into mock fights and learning what fun toys can be.  This is the most adorable age!  They still have lots of baby fat and are rolly polly little sausages on legs!

This little boy looks like he is a bit unsure of things.  They are loving being in a larger space now that they are mobile.  Even at this young age, they try to pee and poop on the paper, keeping their bedding clean.
