NO WAY! 4 babies!?!

Remember that last post about our new pets and the small "joke" I made about babies. Ah, it wasn't a joke after all. I thought that maybe hamsters had to be at least 6 months to a year old to reproduce. I WAS WRONG! One night I went into Carlee's room to get her pj's and noticed that the dad was wandering and playing, but the mom was staying still in her nest she had made. Well guess what...she had 4 babies under her. I about DIED. They are 2 weeks old today and now we have 2 cages and 6 hamsters. They are adorable and Carlee has loved watching them grow. Yesterday they started to roam the cage themselves although their little eyes are still closed. Anyone need a new pet? They are easy to take care of and will take a lot of abuse without giving it back (Carlee dances with hers). Let me know. They are free and if we can't get rid of them soon (or as soon as we can) I might be paying people to take them.
