Baby bunnies!!!

This is Eden writing. Yes, little Eden, who is now 13 and whose mother finally taught to make posts on the blog (after I begged her for months). Since Ma rarely posts anymore, I've decided to start doing a bit of blogging myself, since I'm a decent writer and have always loved the blog. I have decided that a worthy first post would be a classic -- Baby Bunnies! 
Winnie, one of our two mini rexes, had babies this summer. 8, to be specific, and none of them died. Not bad for her first time! Their names are Hazel, Rosemary (or Rosy), Blackavar and Lil' Blackie (both most commonly called Lil' Blackavar since they are impossible to tell apart), Spotty, Fiver, Cheesecake (who was named by Faith -- everyone else insists that his name should be Oreo. I thought it was a bit too cliché.), and Milky.

Winnifred (Winnie), the mom.

Brand new babies!

In their finery




Luna had a weird obsession with the bunnies. She was both intrigued and terrified.

...The bunnies, however, paid her no mind.

Here's Hazel in our Photoshoot

We had to bribe them with dandelion leaves to get them to stay still

Milky, just chillin'

We sold all of them in the end. All of my friends met them and begged their parents to let them have one. They were all unsuccessful, except for Alice, who in the end took Rosy and Blackavar (rechristened Jasmine) to their new home. They seem to be loving it, and it's obvious that Alice loves them.
