Summer Happenings

Like the last few summers have been, this summer was full of days of me either taking Ruger hiking or swimming.  On both activities, we almost always met up with friends.  

Levi ran a race on the 4th of July and met the cast of "The Chosen" with some of his friends.

Just a cute picture of my Dad that my Mom sent me.  It's a picture of the things my Mom loves to cuddle with...including my Dad!

And then there was soooooooo much kitten time.

Momma with "Orange."  We just call them by the color of their collars.  I put collars on them because they looked so much alike and I wanted to accurately weigh them every day.

"Red"

We had lots of visitors that wanted to see and hold the kittens.  I was grateful for this because I wanted to get the kittens used to other humans other than just our family.

This is my very favorite picture.  One night I looked over and Okayu's head was leaning on David's arm while she was nursing "Orange."

As the kittens got older, they loved to play around my legs.  This is a picture in the early stage of my leg scratches.  You should see them now!

Seiiki has been the best co-momma to the kittens.  She pottied them when they couldn't go to the bathroom on their own and now plays with them.

The kittens are now 6 weeks old and love to play.  They are nursing less and less.  They are eating soft food and try to eat Momma's hard food any chance they can get.  They love drinking water and are fully potty trained (which they taught themselves).  Next week they will get their first round of shots.  Only 2 more weeks and they will go home to their forever homes.
