The pups are growing! The largest boy (Pumbaa) weighed in at 1lb 5 1/2 oz this evening. Nala is close behind at 1lb 5oz, Rafiki is at nearly 1lb 4oz and Simba, the littlest of the boys is an ounce behind him. The babies are gaining an average of 3 oz per day. Looking at them, I swear they've doubled in size.
We've started the Early Neurological Stimulation program (to read more, visit - http://www.breedingbetterdogs.com/achiever.html ). The boys are taking to it without a complaint. Nala doesn't mind most of the stimulus but lets it be known that she has ticklish feet.
Here are a few pics of Saturday's puppy pile. And a short video as well. Turn up your volume and you'll hear the squeaks. The ones that make it sound like I have a houseful of mice. At 3 o'clock in the morning...
From left to right - Simba, Pumbaa, Rafiki (his head is under Nala - you can see it poking out on the far right of the pic), Nala.
Not sure who's bum we're looking at here...
For once, Nala is on the bottom of the puppy pile.

That is too funny. I think our psychic connection was just a little out of sync tonight. As I was driving home from Mississauga tonight I thought of the name Mustafa for one of the pups. :-)
we love the names ;)
D will too when i let her know
is Rafiki the male with the all black head?
No, Rafiki is the male with a small white blaze and partial ruff. Pumbaa is the male with the all black head (the little porker! LOL!)
that little girl is so precious!
