New family members!

As you may recall, Eliana wanted a rabbit for Christmas and we granted her wish.  Emily knows of a breeder and so contacted her.  She had a litter of baby bunnies but keeps them with their mommy bunny until they are ten weeks old.  So we had to wait until January to pick up the bunnies.  "Bunnies" and not "bunny" you may be asking?  It turns out that the breeder had a pair of sisters available.  Karina wanted a bunny too, and we let her use some of the Christmas money she got to buy one.

So off we went into Portland to go to the breeder's house.

We sat down and got to know the bunnies a little bit.  Karina got the black one, which she named "Starlight".  After getting a crash course on how to take care of bunnies, we brought them home.

The bunny made a big impact on Karina, so much so that she painted a picture of her.

We were told to have the bunnies live in our living room for at least a week, in order for them to get used to us and acclimate to their new surroundings out of the cold from the outside.

The little brown one belongs to Eliana and she named this one Churro, as in those tasty cinnamon and sugar covered snacks you can get from Costco.

They are both really cute.  They also are really attached to each other and stay close to each other most of the time.

So we have two new family members in our house!
