Since I did a post last week with pictures of Arya as she grew up with us, it’s only fair that I do the same with her brothers. I made a collage using PicMonkey for each of them. Unfortunately it wasn’t until I was on the last one that I realized I should have done it in a larger size and uploaded that to Flickr, but… I didn’t. Sorry about that! I’ll do better next time, I promise.
Is it just me, or is that one especially good looking litter?

Okay, I’ve got two more pictures involving Jon Snow (what? He WAS here an entire day longer than Hodor and Brandon!)
Norbie would like it known that he is HORRIFIED that y’all were SO right about the dust showing up on the new black refrigerator. Horrifying! Someone needs to wipe down this refrigerator immediately!

Here’s a peek of the new guys and gals!
In case you can’t tell from that last picture, there are SEVEN kittens there! The Mom actually gave birth to nine (I SAID NINE) kittens, but two of them didn’t make it. These guys seem vigorous and healthy, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that we have no issues. They were born on September 5th, so they’re just at two weeks old.
I think we have 4 girls and 3 boys, but as Fred was checking them for me yesterday he lost track of what he was doing (we were being pretty disorganized about it), so he’s going to take another look later today, and we’ll get a picture of each of their faces. We’ve got the orange and white tabby, a tuxie, a girl that is kind of torti-ish (y’all will be able to help me with figuring out exactly what she is, I’m sure), and four brown tabbies and white. I cannot, for the life of me, tell the brown tabbies apart at this point, but I’ll get it figured out eventually.
Mama is very very sweet and friendly, and has NO problems at all with us handling her babies.
We have a name theme (and names) in mind, but I’m going to wait a few days to assign names to them just to be sure they’re the ones I want to use. Feel free to make suggestions, though – I love seeing what you guys suggest!
