The Roma tomatoes, obviously so frightened they are standing upright and at attention, approve of Olivia’s scaredy cat pose practice. Obviously.

Erinn’s not dishing when her due date is and surely, is laughing to herself at all the fuss we made over getting her situated with all the latest and greatest expectant mama-to-be gear in record time three weeks ago. A while longer still, she insists amid gobbling today’s breakfast.

Quint makes himself scarce. Almost scarce, that is.

Is this a regular thing around here? Because with my belly, I couldn’t hide even if I wanted to.

Oh, you bunch of chickens. I’ll go see who it is. The question is do I take the easy route or do I make mom’s heart stop? C’mon, what do you think? I’m Danger Cat!

Meanwhile, after a few hours, Pia shows us how stressed she was. Geesh! As for Maxx and Olivia, they must have found extra secret hiding places because no one saw them until long after the repairmen were long gone.

“See Tessa? We didn’t even mention when the repairmen came upstairs and you went all ballistic and scratched us both.”

Stub-u-lar (Just look at those stubby legs!)

Recently, we found a tidbit of information on Erinn’s pregnancy that might help us figure out her due date or somewhat close to it. The best we can estimate is that she’s due between two and three weeks from now.

TWO OR THREE WEEKS?????

Yeah, we know! Two or three weeks is like… forever and a year from now! And that means those baby Niblets will be ready to adopt around Thanksgiving! Do people even adopt kittens at Thanksgiving? We’re hoping so! So, in the meantime, here’s Erinn giving us a sly smile and the old, “Ha! I’m keeping you guessing” look.
