The kittens and I managed a truce this afternoon in the battle of the embroidery threads, so they slept on my feet while I managed to add a bit to the cross-stitch project: It’s still going to be a very long time before there’s anything worth seeing in these updates.

A few more photos, just because: I would have lots more, but not long after that one of the kittens managed to pull…
Actually, we haven’t quite settled on their names yet, so I can’t introduce you, but I can show you photos of the two little additions to our family: They’re both girls (or ex-girls, having had their bits removed a few days ago).
