Welcome to the Jones’

So here are our new family members. They are wild hogs – about 1.5 pounds each at the moment. No names yet. :) They were rescued from the middle of the pasture, just before buzzards were going to swoop down and get em. So, they are house pigs now. Wish us luck!
Christina, Marshall told me earllier and I’m so excited. Look at how cute they are! Are they eating and pooping?
Hey Ginger! No poop yet. One is eating for sure - not positive about the other, but its getting close. Marsh says they aren’t more than a week old. We will see!
Can’t believe I’,going to say this…very cute!
Hello Jones:
Last night I get a phone call from daughter…”Daddeee, they got pigs!!! Okee, I’ll call you right back. [laughter] Eeeee, Eeeeeee, [clik].”
Late into the next day — Some rain, A/C limping into final stretch…. downpours. Charlotte’s Web on SHO, is that Julia Robert’s voice… yep.
Urgent line from the field… “Honey, your daughter was supposed to be home at 9AM… [clik].”
Get your sister on the phone… “[Booddle dee boo], I’m coming now to pick you up… now [clik]!”
“But Daddeee, I …
Vrroooommmm…. beep beep.
Splish splash flapaddee… “Daddee, Mrs Christina put pictures on the net…email…” Wave kissee kissee, Vrrooooommmm.
Much Much later:
clikkety ckik — first thing I see….
“Feel free to shoot me an email, I’m probably just lying around having a cocktail waiting on something to do. ;), OMG, dozing pigs, I didn’t realize their ferality, okee hmmmmm…”
Television: “Do you Mark Spitz relinquish your thirty six year title to Mark Phelps?

I can’t believe you said that either. Want one??
I’m thinking “Phelps” and “Spitz.”
Ah, these little guys are sooooooo cute! Somehow, though, I have a feeling that they aren’t going to stay at this cute and cuddly stage for long.
Patrick - you are nutso. NUTSO! *muah* Come see them - they are so cute!
MJ - we probably have about 4-6 months of cuddly. They are both eating so good and seem to be healthy - they will be growing FAST!
*muah* ya’… but you got us all hanging here — from Ginger’s cue… POOPING YET?
little Spitz and Phelps that is. We have our office pool to pay up… *waiting* (cursor blink blink)
Yep, pooping and peeing like little champs! Sorry, Marshall vetoed Spitz and Phelps (probably because Spitz is being a little dickish of late) - their names are Wilbur and Webster.
Very cute.
We are all oohing and aahing over these babies. They are so adorable!
