Day 5: Bunnies are hopping (sort of)

Here are the baby bunnies on day 5. Aren't their new coats sleek and glossy? You can see the runt on the right at the middle facing left. He's skinny and about half the size of the largest bunny, but he seems to be okay so far. Lisa warns me that there may be something inherently wrong that may cause him to ultimately fail, but so far so good.
Even though we don't really see it happening, Genevieve must be nursing them pretty well. Most of them are fat and active. One of them actually hopped yesterday. He put his two back feet together and thrust straight up. They're all such prodigies!
Lisa agrees with Annette that they look like they're all either chocolate or lilac. No blacks. :(
It's ironic that I should get a nestfull of chocolates when I'm specifically trying to avoid the brown and red colors. But they're all beautful babies and I'm sure the chocolates will be lovely.
Maybe we should name them after chocolates: Godiva, Fanny Mae, Russell Stover, Whitman, Lindt and Hershey. Yum! Makes me hungry.

I think the colors are gorgeous! Poor little runt-he's so tiny. :-( Can you sneak him in for an extra nursing again?
