Quiet Time

So I have been feeling rather crafty lately. The other day I made some homemade finger paints and Mabel and I went to town sitting on the floor of the kitchen getting pretty messy. After spending some quality time with Mabel, I got on the computer to look something up. You know when things get really quiet and you think, "My kid is being oddly quiet at the moment", but you are enjoying the quiet time so much that you just ignore that feeling to go check on them?

The green bathwater.

My lion and froggy.

And here it is folks, Charlie has found his tongue. There it is, you can't really miss it because it is always hanging out these days. I wonder where he learned that?

Newest Addition

We recently welcomed the arrival of the newest member of our family, Samantha Teed, the cat. Due to the fact that there is already a Samantha Teed in the family, one of them needs to change their name...so we now welcome, Dory Teed, the cat, to the family.

Here she is being loved and admired by her adoring family.

Two facts you should know about Dory. 1) Her fur is completely knotted and we have to shave her, so she will no longer look so dignified, and you may giggle if you see her afterward. 2) Dory does not like to go to the vet. I learned this the hard way. Monday as I was putting her carrier in the car to go to the vet, the door came off and she tried to get away. I made the mistake of trying to stop her from getting away. She bit through my hand. Ouch. Really, ouch. One of us went to the doctor that day, and it wasn't her. I am on antibiotics for a week and need to go renew my tetnus shot. So welcome to the family Dory.
