My summer bugs:-)

[Kathleen]

The girls are growing like weeds-they're six days old tomorrow (getting old!) and I'm dying for their little peepers to start opening. 

Elderbug is the littlest, but the most energetic.  She climbs the mom-mountain and ends up on Millie's back frequently. 


Junebug is Millie's mini-me, except for the color, of course.  She's very laid back and just loves to be cuddled. 


Ladybug was born biggest, but has fallen behind Cricket in size.  She's crawled completely out of the crate bottom Millie is sleeping with her puppies in  twice, so she seems like she'll be adventurous.


Cricket was last born and along with Junebug were the middle in size, almost a full ounce behind Ladybug, but Cricket has bypassed her "big sister" and become the largest girl.

OMG OMG how cute are they! You can send along Elderbug to us she has the most Hallie like markings. They are all just ADORABLE!!!

dis is Parker: dey is bery nice girls but where are da boys?

[Kathleen]

Thanks everyone-they are so sweet and I'm enjoying them so much.  Wish I didn't have to work, I'll tell you that! 

Peter, I wanted some boys too, but apparently Millie and Comet had other ideas-I sure wasn't expecting a whole group of girls!  Weird thing is, my friend Virginia has Millie's sister (well 3/4 sister), and she just had puppies two weeks before Millie-she had all girls too!

They're all soooo cute, but you can send Lady Bug this way.  (Right, and then I'd have to find new living arrangements.)

I just love the little wrinkled legs on puppies! I can smell puppy breath from here! I see you have gone from ribbons around their necks to marking their feet. As fast they are growing, I think that is a smart move! Can't wait to see the next pictures!

Millie was chewing off the ribbons-it was driving me crazy because the two darker girls were impossible to tell apart at that point.  I can identify them all now without the extras, but I want to be careful anyway.  Elderbug's name is changing to Tango (She'll be Proud Lake's Time to Tango ML) and she's much smaller than her sisters at this point.  And she's got a little stripe of tan between her nose and the black hair.  Ladybug is the other one with the brighter tan points (She'll be Proud Lake's Timekeeper ML), and she is missing that stripe of tan, in addition to being much bigger than her sister.  Junebug  (Proud Lake's Cinderella Moment ML) has almost no tan points at all and she's got the prettiest head of all of them, I think.  And Cricket (Proud Lake's Fashionably Late ML) has dark points, but more tan on her cheeks than Junebug.   Cricket is also huge-her and Ladybug are competing all the time for the "heifer of the day" award.

Here's little Tango getting some one-on-one time with momma.  She's not quite 12 ounces yet and I think the big girls are pushing her out of the way, so I wanted to give her a chance on her own. 



And the three little fatties on their heating pad.



I'm trying ribbons again to see if Millie will tolerate them now.  They still have painted toes, so if not, I'm double covered.

They are just so irresistible innocent little angels! You should be taking more piccies of them as they grow and become playful and naughty! ;)

Gorgeous b/t longhairs!!!! Congrats, Milie and Kathleen.
