As far as photos go, I've got enough from earlier in the week to keep me busy evenings throughout the remainder of the week. I managed to get Remington and Nix's pages updated with a slideshow and hope to complete the others tonight. Still cursing the rapid fire shutter setting on the camera. Decide it was too difficult to choose between a bunch of similar photos I liked so ended up posting them all. In succession they kind of tell a story. I learned some things myself in reviewing them. The girls got off pretty easy with mom... as did Remington and Scout. I posted the "stink eye" slide show of Titan a couple days ago. He and Otis both spend quite a bit of time in the dirt during their outing with mom... Scout approached her with more reserve. Maybe he took note of her stink eye and came to the conclusion avoidance was the best course of action. For the most part what got them in trouble were continued attempts to nurse. And sometimes what got them in trouble wasn't all that evident. Some took corrections to heart and came back at her with tongues wagging. Some, the boys, came at her with a touch of feistiness. Despite their battles though there were tender moments for each.
In other news, I received a great report today on Remington during his followup appointment. His pneumonia has cleared 75 percent and his weight up from 3.5 pounds to 8. We've got another round of antibiotics to get through and an end goal of 100% improvement -no lingering pneumonia. He'll report for surgery on the 8th with the others but given he's still being treated he'll be reassessed that day to decide the best course of action.... proceed with his crop or delay it a week or two. The decision left to the professional and the one doing the cropping.
