Deuteronomy 11:18-19

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 19 Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Deuteronomy 11:18-19

Ham & Bacon & The 4 boys.


Home sweet home :)

The ladder holds up the heat lamp and makes a good place to store piggy bottles :)  


Getting bigger! They are both doing very well. Ham is still a lot bigger then Bacon but they are both growing. They love to dig around in the shavings and make nests to sleep in. I've mostly got them off the heat lamp for the daytime now. They will be a week old tonight. We are still bottle feeding them every hour or two during the day and they see us walk by and they get all excited :) Neither of them like to be held which is just fine with me. Papa and I want to put them in the chick barn when the chicks go out on grass and they'll be able to clean up the feed mess in there and stay warm and in one place :) Being so little without a mom to keep them in they could be a real problem to fence in so the barn is a good safe place for them until they get a bit bigger. But that's at least 2 weeks away and I have a feeling they will be in this tote until then! 

Our entrance is a busy place these days.. 


These 4 little male cats are Fluffs litter and will be 5 weeks old on Saturday! One fell off the wall where she had them Wednesday night and Papa got the rest off when he got home. They are very tame considering they've not really seen humans before and only hiss a little if you startle them. The kids pick them up and cuddle them and play with them and they are wonderful with them. Papa told me this morning he had at least one of them purring so that's a good start!
