Mama Brie says, "Ooof!  That camera flash is BRIGHT!"

Salai & Ginevra have already established themselves as CLIMBERS!  One (or both) of them can often be found on top of "Mt. Brie" commonly.  Here's Salai, on top of mom.

Busy mama's been utterly enthralled with keeping them warm, fed, and clean.
