This is the cycle they've been going through on their first day: play and explore and pounce and give lots and lots of puppy kisses, then conk out for an hour or so. I've tried to take photos of them playing, but they move too fast for me to get a good shot. Ah, well.

I've got a lot of other things to talk about, but since I have a 9:00 TCD appointment (whatever that means) tomorrow and I'm actually starting to get sleepy before midnight for a change, I'ma leave you with these other pictures that were taken a few days ago and which I just now uploaded, and save the talky stuff for tomorrow.
