10 Weeks:
Wow - where does the time go?! Can't believe the kittens are 10 weeks old already. They are all doing great. Probably one of the most loving litters we've ever had. Each one is super sweet and constantly purring. Kittens have had two health checks with our vet and are all healthy. They've received their first vaccination. They are scheduled to be spayed/neutered on July 28th.
Five Weeks:
The kittens are still all doing great. This is a messy week as they are transitioning to kitten food and learning to use the litter box. The kittens all had their first bathes and got their claws clipped and although I'm sure they weren't too fond of the experience, they tolerated it just fine.

Derek - Blue, Meredith - Red, Lexie - Pink, Izzie - Yellow, Callie - White, Christina - Green
Four Weeks:
The kittens are getting so darn cute - both in looks and personalities! They are all very outgoing and friendly. This week, they are starting to eat kitten food and learning to use the litter box. They've also all got their purrboxes going which seems earlier than past litters.
Two Weeks:
The kittens are all still doing great. More coloring appearing. They are starting to get more active so will be moving this week out of the basket in my master bedroom to the master bathroom. They will have more free movement in there and it will work out good when they start eating food and learning to use the litter box. They continue to get lots of love from the girls and we're starting to assign temporary names as they develop their individual looks.
One Week:
The kittens are all doing great. All but one have their eyes open. They now weigh between 6 1/2 and 8 ounces. I'm pretty confident that we have 5 girls and one boy. Coloring is appearing on all the ears except for the little boy so it's possible that he will be cream. One little girl has a dark nose while the others are all still pink.
