Babies!

After borrowing a male guinea pig last summer without success, we decided to buy a male as a friend for Bugsey our female guinea pig. After a long 68ish days of waiting she had three adorable babies. These pictures are of them when they are less then 24hrs old!! Baby guinea pigs are born with their eyes open, fur grown and ready to run around with their siblings. I couldn't wait for the kids to see why I was so excited. They've had lots of fun playing with and caring for these little critters. The babies are now four weeks old, and we have just recently given two of the babies away to friends. I agreed to let Stanley stay and join our family of pets :)

Here is Stanley, the one baby that the kids decided to keep.
