From the Pen of Poe...

The kids and I are having Daily Reading Time over the summer. My daughter is reading the original Pinocchio online. My son is reading a Pendragon book. I finished The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society last night (couldn't put it down, had to finish it). Now I'm reading Little Lord Fauntleroy online at the same site my daughter is using (www.pagebypagebooks.com). I found a free audio download of the chapters for her, as well, so she is listening and reading along. My son asked if he could listen to some music while he's reading, and I'm ok with that. With headphones all around, it gives me the quiet to read, too.

Today while we were having our reading time, we set up the pen for Poe to hop around, and Kirby insisted on being inside the pen to lay down with the boy and bun. Here are a few videos. Poe was quite insistent on wanting to chew the pages of the book or the cords of the boy's headphones.

Poe sure is a curious little guy isn't he? Just doesn't give up on what he wants. Did you boy get any reading done? And did Kirby get his nap in?

Poe just doesn't stop for a second!!

I know it's a day late, but I was sleeeeeeeeeeepy last night, after a full day.
Here are 5 Poe shots from when I was hanging out with him in the pen yesterday evening.

Munching on his hay

No...he's not spoiled or anything, is he?

Bun-tocks

Today was a relax at home day. We all just chilled out.

Baby Girl emailed her Grandparents and best friend.

Then she took some photos of Poe...who was very interested in nibbling on the cord for the lens cap

She emailed some of the photos to her friends.

Tongue Shot!

Then my son got in the pen to sit with Poe while he played loud video games with my hubby alllllllll afternoon!

Poe thinks he could play this game...no problem!

Kirby needed some snuggles, too!

Poe nuzzles into the boy's shirt!

Kirby checks out the girl's drawings.

A little later in the afternoon, the boy was given a treat! His first time trancing a bunny.

is this a happy boy or what???

And then he became a jungle gym again...

Thats so cute that your son was able to trance Poe. You could see your son was happy. Poe looked happy as well.

Aren't mini-rexes just so much fun!? Of the 4 rabbit breeds that I've had experience living with, the mini-rex takes the cake for being the most "interesting". Whether it's fluffing blankets just right, stealing random objects, nudging their slave for attention (or to simply get them to move!), mini-rex are the most outgoing bunnies I've ever had contact with!

Berry-Boo/Felice used to harass Will while he was playing video games, too!

Poe has certainly fit right in with your family. Mini-rex rule!!!

In which Poe is taken out on a lead for the first time!

Look for this one on http://www.disapprovingrabbits.com tomorrow!

He wasn't afraid to hop around.

And then come back to me.

Kirby was out with us.

blurry hop on mommy photos

And then I had some fun with animation. In the first one, it looks like he's saying, "Mom!"

In this one, see if you can catch when he sticks out his tongue!

And finally, a little bath

Cute animations! It looks like Poe disapproved of the harness in that second picture! Kirby looked like he had fun outside, too!

Aww I can't believe I haven't posted in here sooner! Poe is absolutely gorgeous! I love how soft he looks, which I'm sure he is very soft! His coat is absolutely amazing! So plush looking and I just love how black he is!

I love those pictures of him and Kirby! Too cute! He sure has fit well in your family! I love how he's so curious, too! Not afraid of anything! I wish my mini rex babies were like that! hehe.

Does Poe ever get tired with all those toys, boxes, tunnels, kids and dog? lol. I have that same tunnel for my bunners too, and it definitely is a hit! Lily and Minnie always want it, so they have to share

Poe seems to be an endless supply of energy! We have a hard time NOT buying him new toys. I absolutely love watching him play. Elf was so mellow that I couldn't get her to play with anything, even when she was a baby. She ate, pooped, slept and sat there with a satisfied smile. Poe is the total opposite.

He loves the tube, too! He runs up and down it constantly. I think he likes the crinkly noise it makes.

I wanted to make it one long animation, but did 3 shorter ones instead. He DEFINITELY has that disapproving look down! He's on Disapproving Rabbits today! Yay!

Either the grass in those pictures is really big (wide blades), or Poe is really that little! How much does he weigh? He looks so small in the pictures with the kids!

 

[SweetSassy]

OMG!! He's so CUTE!! You take great pic's. When my babies get old enough I'm gonna have to try a harness.

He is very little...just 2 pounds. However, St. Augustine grass is pretty broad, too.

 

[kherrmann3]

OK. I always forget how little baby bunnies are! (Toby could fit in my palm when I brought him home).

 

[BlueGiants]

He's going to stay pretty small. I expect he will be less than 3.5 lbs full grown. His daddy is pretty small too, but a real love.

 

[Elf Mommy]

We had to buy a medium ferret harness to fit him. The small was a bit too small around his belly. This medium is a bit big around his neck, but I'm going to try to adjust it. He is a little love!!!
