Yes, exactly!

Omg, the cuteness overload continues! :dance:

I swear, Rico always seems to be smiling! Does a baby get any cuter??

Yes they do Vlad It can be very painful and distracting for the human as well...lots of running for the camera to catch the advancing cuteness LOL

Weights this morning, R- 60 g, Z - 59 g, M - 57 g

Only 3 pics this morning, I am very very tired and still need to do a very special memorial (I'll try this morning)

Mouse nursing..she looks completely overwhelmed LOL



Mouse and Mason licks



Feeties everywhere

Awwww... Mouse does look fed up. I bet she can't wait to wean them. I wonder if it's harder on her because there's only three. They must be stronger than most?

Mouse is a good, matter of fact type of Mom, not a lovey dovey one...but I imagine since they are huge she gets shifted around a lot. She gets 2 good runs a day...morning and night and that seems to do just fine...when the babies sleep they go jam into their Timmie's cup, so she gets to stretch out at least Her babies are confident and happy too, so she's doing lots of things right...and nutrition-wise they should be normal healthy adults...they should slim down once they get really active like babies do

So much sweetness. With Mouse being the sweetest of them all. Love all the pictures.

lol Mouse and I are the same time of moms.

Those little dumbo babies. Are all of them dumbo? I want to look at their wee pictures now and see how to tell. I probably wont be able to since I still wait for nipples to sex babies around here I cannot screw that way up

Shelagh, you were right...the cuteness just keeps on a rolling! What flat out adorable pics! Feeties, baby tummies, Mouse being practically lifted off the floor by her three hungry bubs, ahhh! Yep, the Cute Train is speeding full steam! :happydance:

so adorable...OMG I can almost not stand it..

I have fallen down on the job over the last week or so on baby pics...I had to concentrate on my own babies mental health and well-being, and losing so many wonderful oldies.

I took the pics but never put them up...so now you will get the best of the best

Zak has decided that he liked to sleep wedged up beside the wheel and the side of the cage...It's hard to describe so I took a 36 second video so you could see it too

Oct. 2nd - 4 weeks old

Zak


Rico



Mason



Posing like a show dog


The infamous tongue

I want a rat like Rico :O

Gosh, they are just so freakin' adorable!
And that takes talent to sleep hanging on the side of the cage. It's all fine and good until someone gets on the wheel...
