Puppy stay home day

Stayed home with a bad head cold/sore throat today. Pups were fed at 6:30 am as usual, then I went back to bed. Just moved them out of my bedroom last night. Set up an exercise pen for them on my front porch. Right now they are going from there to the dining area to where I am at the edge of my living room. Mater has learned how much fun it is to roll an empty pop can. Ramone had no problem finding the puppy food soaking on the kitchen counter (he tried to climb the counter to get to it!) So far the babies go back to the papers in their pen to potty. Only one mess to clean up since they've been out. I also had them outside for a few minutes, but decided that I needed help supervising them so that they didn't ingest any plants that weren't good for their little tummies. What is safe at 7-8 weeks may be bad at this age. I will put up a few pics I took last night. More coming later. Alot of work taking care of 9 puppies, and of course playing with them! They will be leaving all too soon, so my housework and yardwork have been ignored. Will have to find a bit of time to tidy up this weekend for visitors. Let me know if you would like to come play with them. This weekend is fairly open.
