Lap time

Happy Memorial Day, everyone!  I hope everyone is having a relaxing holiday (for everyone who observes this holiday that is. For everyone else, I hope you're having a great day!).

Here's the latest lap picture of 9 and Chani.  I keep thinking that they're getting bigger and bigger and Chris keeps telling me that they're still small.  No, 9 and Chani have not reached their adult size, yet.  However, they are getting bigger as evidenced by their 'fit' on my lap.

One day, I'll post a progression of pictures so everyone can see how much these two have grown.  Enjoy!

Of Ear Massages and Laps

Ear massage heaven.  Chani's ears are huge, as I have previously noted.  Whereas she's is generally a major heat machine, her tips of her ears are often a little frosty.  I like to 'massage' them on occasion.  Last night, it was Chris' turn to play personal massuer to the little lady.

Now, from these pictures, can you tell that my two new babies are growing?  Seeing them day in and day out, it's not easy to see their growth.  Some days it's subtle.  Other days, it's kind of shocking.  Today was one day, where I was completely surprised by how big they become.

9: purrrrrrr

Chani:  Don't worry, mom.  I can still fit on your lap, even when 9 fully stretches out

On my lap

One of the most important things for me when I was adopting kitties was that they were lap cats.  I really wanted to have kittens who would just climb up into my lap and hang out there.

Well, I got my wish.  Two times over it seems.

9 was first.  He was all comfortable, but then Chani climbed up onto my computer desk and decided that the best seat in the house was in front of my monitor.  Not good when I was trying to work/chat/play World of Warcraft.  So, I grabbed Chani and put her on my lap as well. This lead to a little bit of repositioning on their part.

Repositioning multiple times.  Part of me thinks that my lap is just not big enough for the two of them, but how could I say no to one of them and not the other?  I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with this when they get to full size.  Guess I'll deal with it then.

In the meantime, I'll just enjoy it.  Now, can anyone tell me how to take photos of the kittens on my lap without making me look so "eff a tee"?
