The Lautreras' Day Out


      There comes a day in every baby gerbil's life when they must head out to the unknown--no, I don't mean weaning, I mean their first outing in the playbox. Here are pics I took of the Lautrera family playing (or at least the parents playing, the babies mostly slept = ).


      Ciaran's still in daddy-mode at first.
      It's Phoebe and the Horde!
      Ciaran strikes a pose for the camera.
      But he'd still like to know why my friend Liza has one of his babies!
      Well as long as they're in the ball, they can keep track of them!
      However, "Daddy" Lautrera isn't beyond a little goofiness = )
      Even Phoebe is curios enough to leave the babies alone for a bit.
      Oh where oh were has Phoebe gone . . . = )
      But the pups are hungry, and Phoebe is a devoted mother.
      Well, guess it's time to go home . . .
