Welcome home Zephyr 1.0 Ghost Motley het stripe , Nimbus 0.1 Amel het Caramel and Nagini 0.1 Ghost Stripe!! 4-5 weeks old awwww, feeding well and shedding too!
Today has been a struggle from start to finish...totally made better by sitting here in the near dark peacefully watching my babies being super nosey in their LED lit RUBs.
0800 - Took my eldest to school and popped to the pet shop to pick up some hides.
0855 - Still standing outside the pet shop waiting for it to open 
0915 - Get out of the pet shop after a 15 minute discussion on why they don't currently have any hides or water dishes (I have loo roll tubes and milk bottle lids but thought I would upgrade)
0918 - Miss the ruddy bus 
0919 - On phone attempting to reschedule the phone call I have booked for 09.30
0925 - Text from breeder saying she needs me to be there before 12 as she has a workman coming in
0945 - Get in to find 2 missed calls from the interviewer Call back to try and get him, he's on the phone, told I may have missed my slot...
0953 - Yey phone call
Tick tock
1035 - Run out the door with travel rubs. Taxi to train station
1045 - Just got on train, another text to say breeders dog has gone into labour and can I make it later  ...er no! Tell your dog to do some breathing exercises! (actually polite convo re already on train but I did think that  )
1100 - 5-10 minute walk turns into half an hour thanks to my inability to listen to directions due to extreme excitement
1130 - Arrive and find the most orderly box room full of beautiful snakes I could ever imagine. A good 60 corn babies to choose from along with a look at some Milk Snake hatchies and some Royal Python hatchies. AND their mummies and daddies, oh the excitement! Loads of info on my babies and away I go 
1150 - Text from Dentist (four towns away) saying don't forget your appointment at 1215..*#?!*?*
1155 - get on wrong train
1215 - on right train but not at dentists
1230 - At Dentist and made to wait half an hour as I was late (babies still in my bag at this point)
1345 - Numb face and collection of new cupboard - viv to be.
1415 - Get home and plug in heat mats again (temps and stats checked previously) pins on all three plugs break!!! (serves me right for cutting corners) Inhale tea and taxi to PAH...£70 lighter by the end of it.
FAST FORWARD
Now, sitting watching gorgeous babies in (properly kitted out) rubs.
And if you got this far lol here is your reward!!
Zephyr - Great pic, sorry about the quality!
Nimbus - She's a climber lol
No pics of Nagini yet she's a little shy but I have plenty of time lol
