:giggle:
He is. I'm not sure how thrilled he is about it. Woke up this morning to Lucie and Chip tumbling over his head, playing and chirping. He didn't look impressed. But when they are quiet, he snuggles up with them and he looks REALLY happy. Still have not seen him brux/boggle, but I have seen the babies do so while sleeping with him. I feel like Dale is older mentally then he looks... He is so serious. I hope the babies help him learn to be a bit more playful. Every out time helps too, he even hand wrestled with me momentarily (you know, before he realized what he was doing) before running to hide and peek out cautiously LOL. It was so funny - I pulled him out of his hiding spot and gave him a snuggle afterward.

Oh boy am I ever behind on this! I'm just going to barf a bunch of pictures onto this post and update on them tomorrow or Friday. They are doing quite well though, and Dale even learned how to hand wrestle!
I really love this picture of Lucie. No idea why, I just really do
Can you believe that they didn't take the puff and eat it??? They were more interested in my hand <3
Silly Tilly
Remember the original pics of them on my hand like this? Look how much they have grown!
Siblings!
And adoptive siblings!
And then Dale had enough and jumped off to get away from the babies for a bit. He explored the bathroom and really enjoyed himself. He did come back to me for a bit though and peeked around the corner.
Leaving the babies for me to entertain, although they were already getting sleepy

Lucie also loves hands
Is Tilly getting sleepy????
Everyone is tired, so they crawled into the hand and I quite literally melted. Chip is on the bottom, with Tilly on top of him and Lucie is closest to my palm

I need to update this thread with pictures, but for now I will just show you these 2 videos. They are both of the babies playing.
Sorry about the crazy camera movements, it is hard to play and record them all at the same time!

The baby boys will be coming to live with me today. Crumbilina will be driving them all the way here and will be helping me set up the cage as well. She also decided to bring the girls so I can meet them and for them to get use to car rides.
I will take lots of pics today!

They are doing really well! Chip and Dale went to their forever him last week and Tilly and Lucie will have their home here.
Sorry I got so behind with pictures, there has been a whole lot going on here. Most of the insanity started on Feb 27th when I woke up to Tilly screaming in pain any time anyone came near her, rat or human. She also would scream in pain any time she peed or moved or groomed or anything. I had no idea what was going on so I had to rush her to the vet. Luckily Dr. Munn was able to see us. She ended up diagnosed with a UTI and put on clavamox. It worked well! Today is her last day of meds and she is back to normal. It was bump there though, when you have a young, 5 week old rat screaming in pain with nothing overtly wrong with them, its horrifying! Dale was an amazingly awesome big brother though, he stuck by Tilly and made her feel comfortable. He even fended off everyone else until she was feeling better! It was so adorable!
By the next day she was starting to feel better and was playing a bit more, but you could really tell when the advil wore off. I had to make sure that I gave it to her on time or else I would be hearing her screams.
Here she is when the advil was working:
And her sister Lucie on the same day
After that we went to take the boys to their new home. There story is continued elsewhere, but here is a cute picture from the car ride there. The girl in the tim hortons drive through really got a kick out of them when they were doing this.
After this time it was difficult to get good pictures of them. They run around so much! They are very active girls. Right now, they live in a cage that is a bit small for them, but they spend most of the day out anyway. I recently gave them a shelf in their cage and they really seem to enjoy it. Right now, I'm sitting on the bathroom floor as they are running into and out of and play-fighting in my pj pant legs >.<
Here are some random pics, enjoy!

Jealous of other rats who were getting out time
I wish this close up would have turned out better
Enjoying their new shelf
