Baby Girl Prada (Champagne)

Here is the first born.. she is white but has a tint of caramel when you put her next to her two sisters. She is the biggest of the girls and likes to be in charge. So cute! Kim is home so she has given all the pups temporary names...

Baby Cooper Sweet little boy

This is the only boy in the family! He's super cute brown and white with little tan patches on his cheeks.

Baby Girl Oreo (Brown and White)

This is the only one that came out with a scream! She was breech and her poor mom shreiked when she came out. But all went well and she was quickly feeding along her siblings. She has the most brown coloring. Here she is curled up with Prada and Kate

Baby Girl Kate (white)

This one is doing great, she loves to hang with her sisters. For some reason the white ones all bunch up together and the brown and white ones bunch up together. But sometimes they all pile up in a heap. As you can see its hard to tell Kate and Chloe apart!

Baby Chloe - Skinny Minnie! (white)

Baby girl was the fifth to be born and I thought the last! She is the tiniest of them all. Born at 5 oz and is having a hard time latching on to a teat not just mommy's belly. I have been working with her by feeding her with a bottle and she has finally caught on. I have been putting her alone with mom to try and get more weight on her. She's so cute!

Baby Girl Halen (Light brown and white)

This was our big surprise.. I thought we were done and then Ella's last little girl made her arrival. A whopping 6oz baby girl and she is white with brown patches.

2 day old Shih Poos

This morning I weighed all the puppies, only two have gained weight. So we are starting some bottle feedings to supplement what Ella can provide for them. This will help them gain weight as well as relieve Ella a bit. Ella is pigging out on all sorts of food to put some weight on, but that is not going to happen for a few more weeks.

We did run into one problem. I used a sharpie on the three white ones to differentiate them, and it has disappeared! One of the white girls is more of a caramel white so I can tell her apart. However the other two are exactly alike. The only way I can currently tell them apart is by the length of their umbilical cord. Kim will need to come up with something else to tell those two apart.

Everyone is doing really well! Here is a pic of them sleeping, all lined up. I have a heating pad under the blanket to help keep them warm.
