Happy New Year!

 I apologize for not keeping up with the blog over the past two weeks. I had every intention of posting Christmas pictures and had intended to take more videos to share. The puppies have been so active and cute that there would be so much to share but I admit that I have been a bit distracted with the holidays. Or all too often when I am outside with the puppies or when they are playing in the house that I forget that I should capture these moments to share with you.

It seems that so much has happened since I last blogged. The puppies have grown so much and are now really starting to look like German Shepherds. Their ears are entering the awkward, funny stage, most of them are sticking out and occasionally the puppies will have one ear that will stick up but then the next day they seem to have flopped back down. The puppies are also getting much faster, when we go outside to play it is much harder to evade them they are gaining stamina. We are now taking short ten minute walks in the field behind the house, the puppies are eager to follow their mom and sisters and seem to enjoy romping in the open space. It takes a bit longer now but they are usually pretty tuckered out when we come back inside.

Below are eight week old pictures of the puppies. Some of the puppies will be joining their new families this weekend but we are still looking for some loving homes for a few of the girls.

You may notice that we are a few puppies short today. In the past few days we have said good bye to the first few puppies. I am so happy that they have all found some fantastic homes! It is a bit hard to see them go but I am confident that they will have great lives with their new families.

He was too excited to sit still for a picture

I am having a bit of trouble uploading video tonight, but here are a few more pictures from the last week.

I'm really not sure why but they LOVE boxes!

More puppies in a box, at one point six of them were in this box.

this is the picture I take all too often, I just don't snap it so enough and
am left with a blurry flash or really large nose

again, just not quite quick enough

They have tons of play things but chose to chew on the one thing that isn't a toy
