I can’t believe it. The little fluffballs couldn’t even open their eyes just a few weeks ago, and now they’re wobbling about the house (with mama close behind, cooing, if they stray too far from her). I managed to get a few pics of the fluffkins, but sadly wasn’t able to catch them at their most adoreableness. [The black one](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c228/tuckerfan/killer.jpg) attacks the vicious screwdriver! Meanwhile, his/her two siblings decide to play [king of the hill on a cushion.](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c228/tuckerfan/kingofhill.jpg) Both of them eventually gave up the cushion and took their battle [elsewhere.](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c228/tuckerfan/round2.jpg) At this point, mama got upset because I didn’t take any pictures of her and marched up to me to [get her picture taken too.](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c228/tuckerfan/heket.jpg) So far, the little buggers haven’t gotten too adventurous and tend to stay in the same general areas, but I expect that they’ll be romping about the house with unstoppable energy fairly soon. ---

I love it when they get to the stage where they start to run but the hind end goes faster than the front, they get sideways and fall over, then jump up and look around like, what the hell? for a second or two before rushing off to do something else kittenly insane. 😃 The other favorite is “I can’t see you so that means I’m invisible” even though their little kitten butts and tails are in plain view. 😛 ---

I love it when they first try the “halloween cat” posture and get all sideways and stuff. They think they are being so ferocious and don’t understand why you fall over laughing at them. ---

Oooh! Kitties! I love kitties! They’re the only creatures on earth capable of skittering, except spiders, and spiders don’t count because they’ve got an unfair advantage with all those extra legs. I told my husband that if we manage to find a place to rent that allows pets, we’re getting a kitty. He said he’d think about it. He’s so cute. It’s like he thinks he has a choice in the matter. 😃
