What’s funny is that this picture is actually from June, but we’re just now getting to it so we can properly celebrate Caturday.
Though I also feel like this picture probably doesn’t need much more in the way of text.

PC: Champing Up
I don’t really see myself posting many achievements from the Jackbox game “Champ’d Up” but I thought I’d mention it at least once because the family enjoys gathering around the computer, drawing to the prompts, and then seeing who trounces who.
Hint: Newbie and Little Miss have an artistic advantage.

Civ VI: Gitarja Win!
Slowly but surely, trying out different leaders and then hopefully winning with them.

Stardew: Year 4 Fishing Win
Finally! It only took me to year 4 to finally beat Little Miss at the ice fishing competition.
Amusingly between yesterday’s Stardew post and today’s I’ve actually scheduled a bunch of cat pictures through the rest of the year and into January, but you’ll have to wait until various future Caturdays to see those.

Stardew: The Great Pumpkin
We got lucky here with this picture coming up in October! I took the screenshot back at the end of July.
This was our first giant pumpkin on our shared farm ever, so it was something we wanted to be sure to catch a picture of for posterity.
And yes, that’s our regular farming setup. I suppose we could move it to the left a little bit to allow for the Jumino huts to harvest more on the right side and then also add another set of iridium sprinklers on the left but really, this layout is keeping us well stocked with a strong harvest that then all goes into kegs and preserve jars. What we probably need at this point is a third shed that would let us process even more preserve jars and kegs… but to do that, we’ll need a good spot to put them.
We even have a nice strong system for planting each season these days so that the multi-harvest plants go along the top and the sides and then everything else branches out from there.
I fear soon my work’s Q4 rush will be coming and we’ll have to put off doing Stardew for about a month. I don’t look forward to that. This gaming time with my senior is precious.

Arting Child
Look at the blur on that marker! She’s in the process of making something… and then moving on to draw on herself afterward, naturally.

Drooling Nap
My favorite way for them to pass out on me is when they just fully zonk. This little guy will fight sleep, he knows it’s coming and will squirm angrily, cry, and otherwise flap, trying to somehow get away from the monster also known as sleep…
But sleep wins in the end.

Cat Blocked
Lady Grey says “pet me, stop making gacha life videos, Newbie.”

Gamer Training
She wanted to make a void elf character on my account. I can’t remember what chores I was doing at the time at this point, but I went ahead and said sure, go ahead.
Newbie then joined her, so we had small siblings partying up out in the world. I believe Superman and maybe Little Miss were also playing, but having these two young future gamers sitting side-by-side was the important shot for me.

Handily Cute
It’s how he has his little arm positioned under his chin that really gets me on this picture of adorable sleeping.
