Saul is a real couch potato – he prefers snoozing on the couch more than any other location.
Mama Kim Wexler was up on the desk taking a post-breakfast bath, and Mike hopped up to see what she was doing (and to check for treats, I think.)
Gus and Nacho snuggle up for a nap. (I love the very subtle rainbow across the picture, which I didn’t notice until just now. I’ve got suncatchers in both the windows, and they often throw rainbows across the room.)
Mike and Francesca check to see if I’m doing anything interesting. (I was not.)
Oh, that Nacho. Isn’t she a PRETTY girl?
Kim has started hanging out on that platform on the little cat tree. I suspect it’s because the kittens can’t fit up there with her.
Francesca in the doll bed.
Lalo was rolling around in the blue bed purring, and Gus had to come see what was going on.
Everyone but Mike is in this picture. (Mike was at my feet.)
I love that they use that soft blue bed. They also like to move it all over the room. I never know where I’m going to find it – but there’s usually a kitten in it!
Nacho (in the hammock with Saul) totally looks like she’s yelling at Kim.

An old picture of Dewey, so y’all don’t forget what a cutie he is. (This was in the previous house. I really miss that awesome island in the kitchen sometimes!)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr) yesterday.
It’s time for breakfast, and Mike is waiting (im)patiently for me to open those cans.
We have an update on Bramble and Hollyhock (and Stompers!)
Kristyn says: I’ve been meaning to send you an update. Bramble and Hollyhock are such delights. They have made our home and family so much richer and turned Stompers back into a kitten. They all play together and snuggle often. Bramble has turned into a mountain lion of a cat. He is SO BIG! Hollyhock remains tiny, dainty, and utterly mischievous. Her goal in life is to climb onto every possible high surface. I have faith she will eventually succeed. She in particular likes to play with Stompers and he is so incredibly gentle with her. He could easily just lay on her and win any fight, but he gently bats at and tumbles her and is endlessly patient with both of them. Just wanted you to know that they are all healthy and happy!
(Thank you so much, Kristyn!)

Mama Kim Wexler got a treat, the kittens jumped up to see if there was any for them, and then bath time commenced.
Saul always looks so very AMUSED.

I am telling you, Francesca is a very focused girl. She found one of those plastic rings, and spent a long, long time playing with it, batting at it, and carrying it around. The girl knows how to entertain herself!
Good night innernets. (Mama Kim pie – my favorite!)

2005: If he was a dog, he’d be a bulldog.
I’m weird. I melted at the mental image of a rolling-around, purring Lalo. Awww.
Speaking of awww, Stompers is a big goofy gentle orange perma-kitten, isn’t he? Someone clearly learned how to interact with other kitties while at the And3rson finishing school for friendly creatures. I bet he’s still a people-snuggler, too. So much love for that fantastic boy!
And randomly, thinking back to videos of the last few days, is it just me, or does Mike have a happy most of the time? XD He seems like he might be the litter purrer (he hasn’t forgotten his rough start and knows just how amazingly he has it now, maybe), but I could easily be mistaken!
Well I said it on Instagram, but I’ll say it again – what a great Bramble and Hollyhock (and Stompers!) update!! Wonderful descriptions; so happy for all concerned.
As for Dewey – Hello, sir. You are awfully handsome.
Love the colors from the suncatchers.
Stompers! I’m glad he’s grown up to be a good uncle!
