update on the puppies

If you follow my blog you might remember this post last month about some adorable newborn puppies.  I have some newer photos of them, and thought I'd give you an update.
there is lots more to that story...
oh boy

A few days after I posted the last photos, the sweet momma dog needed an emergency surgery, and could no longer nurse her pups.  So, all 7 needed to be bottle fed every 2 hours.   EVERY 2 HOURS!!!!!!!!!!
I helped out for a few days (and nights) at the beginning of that adventure and let me tell you- it's good that those puppies are so cute!!  : )   yep, you just try convincing a tiny squirmy puppy that they like formula milk out of a plastic bottle.  (At 2 in the morning no less!) 
And I did get pretty attached to those puppies, too.  All the girls are named after disney princesses- Jasmine is my favorite puppy.  She's the teeniest of the bunch but has lots of spunk. 

Here are pictures from a few weeks ago:

Once the puppies got used to the formula, feeding them became much easier and we could feed two at a time. 

Here's Belle getting a little overzealous and having milk come out her nose:

Here's momma when she was feeling better- released from her "cone of shame".  (just a shout out to my fellow pixar fans)  :)

And here are the puppies now.  I love this stage, they are so playful and fun!  They have been exploring the garden at my friend's house, and apparantly they like basil.  Who knew.
