Best Party Favors EVER!!

My daughter had her birthday party today.. I knew the puppies loved my kids, but these puppies were in HEAVEN! 11 girls to play with.. Best party EVER!!
 
I was lucky to catch some cute candid's of some of these furbabies..
Its not an easy thing to do trust me! But they are sure fun!!
 (above) Annie & Calamity can't decide if they are wrestling or resting.. I think a little of both!
 (above) Ringo and Bill playing with the soccer ball.. Ringo seemed to love the ball AND Bills tail :)
Lillie taking a break so I could get a close up of her darling fluffy face :) She is a hard one to take pictures of. She is always traveling, playing and curious about everything! She is a beautiful puppy, with the cutest kissable face!
 Here is Bill (above), they like to play in our Tupperware bin.. We use it to transport the puppies back and forth from the lawn.. apparently, it doubles as a toy. Bill is very even tempered. he wrestles and plays, loves toys and will literally chase my kids when they run.. He wants to be part of everything and is even coming to a kiss or whistle!
 Here's Rooster just getting his snuggles in before he runs off to play!
 Annie was really cute today.. She would play, then come climb in my lap for some attention.. Then she climb out of my lap and go play some more. Annie is a sweetie for sure. Loves snuggles but won't turn down the next adventure!
Calamity just trying to decide who she was going to pounce on next.. tough decision!
 The puppies made the party a hit for sure! We love it when our friends and neighbors come to see the puppies. It is so good for them to be exposed to as many 'strangers' as possible so they aren't timid when meeting new people. They love attention and the kids loved giving it to them!!
 Belle is such a sweet heart! She is definitely more mellow than the rest, but she is coming out of her shell a little bit and surprising us with an ankle bite or pounce! Her favorite spot is still right next to me.. And I love it!
 
 Here is Calamity figuring out the soccer ball- hmm eat it or push it? Calamity is a go getter. She loves to meet different animals, is not afraid of anything and will be the first to try something new. She is still a cuddler and always comes back for some snuggles.
 
 Here is our jokester Ringo. He has the cutest personality. He follows he kids where ever they go. He is fearless, loves to explore and LOVES people and our cat. He will run and pounce and just kind of run sideways sometimes.. Like his back legs are going faster than his front..
Annie taking a snuggle break with on of the kids.. She will sneak a kiss in there too when she can!

 Annie is loving the tug rope! Its always the puppies first favorite toy!
 No rest for the weary!! Poor Shelby just wants to chew on her bone.. the little rascals pounced.. ALL of them!
 I think the tug toy won this time! Rooster is very well rounded! He is ambitious likes to explore and play.. he tries to fool the other furbabies into thinking that he is the boss of them. He will pounce them when they are least expecting it! He always finds me after his adventure on the lawn to get a snuggle.. And then off he goes again!
 Ringo figured out how to go UP the stairs, but is too chicken to go DOWN them..
It has been a long day for our babies.. Good Day for sure!
Check back soon, I'm going to try to do some video of these cuties!

Learning how to play..

The puppies are almost 4 weeks old!

  This is my favorite age.
They will play and wrestle with each other but are just discovering toys
 All of the pups are doing very well.
Exploring the yard and teasing the cats.

 I even noticed them playing in the toy pile!
I can't wait until they start playing tug!
 And of course.. No one is complaining about how much they love to
climb in our laps for a rest in between adventures :)
Tomorrow will be their 4 week birthday!
Check back for their updated pictures :)

yummy.. yummy in my TUMMY!!

 These little babies aren't so little anymore!
You can see there is barely enough room for all 7.
So we decided to try some puppy food to see how they liked it..
 They LOVED it!
 Although they weren't quite sure WHAT it was.. They knew it was yummy :)
 They weren't the cleanest eaters either..
All of them pretty much looked like Lillie when they were done.
 it wasn't long after their tummies were stuffed to curl up together for a little rest.
