10 Days

It was an absolutely perfect day here in NW Iowa, which is pretty hard to come by in the spring.  Sunny, 75 degrees, and NO wind!    We thought it would be a good day to open up the shed door so we could get some extra lighting for pictures.  All the pictures are pretty bright, so the true color of the yellow puppies isn't very accurate.  Goldy is the darkest of the yellow's and then probably Aubie.  I feel like I can literally see these puppies grow overnight.  When I went out this morning several of them were getting up on all 4's and scooting around their box.  

Truman:  He almost always sleeps with his mouth wide open!  SO cute! 


Charlie: the smallest so far of the yellows
 Goldy:  You can kind of see in this picture that she is slightly darker than Charlie.  It is more noticeable in person.   

Will and Lady:  You almost never see Will alone.  Many times the puppies will be spread about the whelping box, but Will is always laying on or under another puppy.  He's a snuggler!  

Scarlett:  We are not sure yet, but we have a feeling she is going to be a laid back puppy.  Cade (our 16 year old son) says that she is "chill".

Aubie:  She was carted around in a basket most of the afternoon.  
 Herky:  He also seems very laid back and sleeps a lot!  

Stella:  You can't see her collar, but I thought this was a cute picture of her, because you can see how her muzzle is turning from that light pink color, to the dark brown.  I love it when that happens.  They start to look more like a puppy, than a rat:)
