Randomness continued....

Here are the kitty's at almost 3 weeks old! Their eyes opened when they were about 10 days old and now they are finally able to walk on all fours but not with any agility yet! There are 2 boys and two girls but they all still look so much alike! They all have white spots on their tummies so that is the ONLY way you can tell them apart!
This is Onyx! He is the male we are going to keep. So far he has the most personality and the most white spots so we can tell who he is!

Here are the kittens in action! Right before their eyes opened, Mom cat decided the box she had them in was no longer OK and moved them under the bathroom sink. I tried to put them back in the box and Mom moved them right back to the cupboard.


Jaco has decided that he loves playing basketball. Our neighbors across the street have a hoop so he was always over there shooting away. We found this basketball hoop on Craigslist and Jaco agreed to help pay for it with his allowance so we bought it on Saturday! He is now outside every chance he gets trying to better his game. I love it that he finally enjoys doing something outside! Jaco told me the other day that he is a well rounded person because as he said, he is a nerd, he plays soccer, he plays the violin, and he plays basketball!

Here is the future NBA star making the game winning basket!

La-La has a new look times two! She has another hole in her smile *and* new glasses! The first pair of glasses were repaired 3 times in less than 2 weeks and then she decided to put them on the floor while there were 4 kids running around. I think you get the picture. Thank goodness we got the warranty so it didn't cost anything. So far this second pair is holding up much better. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that these are Hannah Montana frames.

This is just a fun picture I took with my phone while we were at the Oregon Caves. I finally figured out how to get them off my phone!
Here are some of the funny things Care Bear has said in the past week.
She was playing with the kittens and they were trying to nurse. She moved one kitten and said "Here is a pimple for you!" translation-nipple
She LOVES High School Musical and watches it every chance she gets but she calls it Hi No Noosical.
She always throws her head back so she can feel her hair on her back and then she tells me how long her hair is getting. I ask her if we should cut it and she says no because then it won't be long anymore!
Care Bear was so excited to ride without training wheels but now she has learned that it hurts if she crashes. The only way I can get her to even try to ride is if she has all of her "Lily Pads" on. translation=knee pads, elbow pads, etc...

And finally, this is a short clip of one of the many hummingbirds that frequents our feeder. We were weeding outback when the bird kept coming even when we were right there! It was pretty cool. I had hoped you would be able to hear the buzzing of the wings but the camera didn't pick that up.

Aida loves your baby kitties! If we lived nearby, I know we wouldn't get away without one! La-la looks really cute in her new glasses, hole in her mouth and all. Way to go Jaco, and I bet he'll appreciate the hoop even more since he bought it. Fun pictures!

For some reason I no longer have the urge to break out singing christmas carols when I look at your blog! I wonder what it is? :)
What cute kittens, and I bet Justin is loving it that Jacob likes Basketball - Max can't wait till the day he can really play sports with Logan.

I love your new background even though you have had it up since January.....Those kittens are so cute! I totally recognized your short little toes in that clip and also why are your fingers green? Her new glasses are so cute and that is awesome about the B-Ball! We tried watching HS Musical for family movie night and Liv only got half way before she lost attention.
