On top of an already busy week we have been getting loads of late lunch orders which have pushed us to our limits. This has meant that I haven&#8217;t\u00a0had much time for blogging or for taking photos of the girls.<\/p>\n<p>I took these photos a couple of nights ago when it was really cold and the girls were really snuggled up together. Tonight is much milder and the three amigos have settled at the other end of the perch to the two bigger girls.
