Update!

Hello readers!  Well, it's almost time.  Snickers is getting bigger and bigger everyday.  We can feel the babies moving, and Dave even heard their teeth grinding the other day.  It's probably going to be any day now.  We have separated Snickers from the other two girls for now.  Since both of us work, and of course have to sleep, we want to decrease any possible tragedies that could occur by keeping them all together.  We still let them spend time together, but keep them separate when we aren't around.  Here is a picture of the sequestered tote that is now Snickers' temporary home.  [It was a former "cage" I had built for our now deceased hamster, Kendall.]



We are all anxiously awaiting the arrival of our pig pups.  This picture of snickers was taken just moments ago:



As you can see, she is humongous!  She barely lets us hold her at all anymore.  She hides a lot, is difficult to pick up, and she is extremely moody most of the time.   Oh...and she eats more than ever.  I swear this pig is ALWAYS hungry.

Earlier today; David and I went to go pick up some Timothy Hay at Petco.  Right now they have a sale for buy one get one free 24 oz. bags.  We also had a $5 off any purchase of $5 or more rewards coupon.

Here's Ellie showing off our great deal.  $1.07 for two bags of hay?  Yes please!  I felt like I was on Extreme Couponing for a moment.  The girls haven't tried this kind yet, but I'll let you know what they think.  With the new additions to our pig family coming soon, we really need to find good deals on this kinda stuff.  [We don't plan on changing their pellets, though...we use Oxbow Essentials young guinea pig food.]

Going to make this short and sweet today, but for your viewing pleasure, here is some close up shots of Ariel and Ellie:

She is so stinkin' cute!
 
 Awe, just look at that face!
 Ariel's white butt patch.
 So inquisitive.
 Don't you just want to kiss her?
 She's getting so long!
 Dying of cuteness right now.

Well, that's all, folks!  Have a great day.  I will try to write again sooner next time.
