Seiji says Good Night

On the chicks first night home, Seiji got brave.  He decided to try climbing in the bin with the baby chicks.  A few times he just sat on the arm of the couch and peered over.  Then he tried to step over.  Yeah.  Seven pounds of kitten on one side of a plastic bin set it off balance.  Over it went!  

Of course, that in turn knocked the heat lamp set up and caused it to detach from the wall and crash right into the bin with all the chicks!  Dave, Lisa and I jumped off the couch and raced over.  Seiji tore out of there.  Dave unplugged the light, Lisa grabbed two chicks, I grabbed two chicks, and we started loading them up in her shirt, apron-style.

Dave handled cleaning the glass out of the bin and resetting it up on top of the washer for the night.  Lisa and I sat on the couch cuddling the baby chicks to calm them down.  Everyone is safe and accounted for.
