Hi Beau,
If your pups are still alive, you can remove them from the parent plant keeping as much of their root system as possible. Repot them and keep in full sun and water when the top inch of soil is dry. Don't leave them sitting in water for more than an hour.

Also, please remove the caps lock on your keyboard. In computer language it means you are yelling and it's hard on the eyes.

Regards,
Newt
