New pictures of the twins… Big sister gives a typing lesson… The twins are coming to see us soon! ~~Grandma 🙂

not quite friends…yet

Yesterday and today, we left the doors open for Niko and let him come and go as he pleased. While I worked in the scrapbook room last night, Niko stayed nearby. He seems to like to be around people. He was interested in the printer when I ran off the bulletin inserts. The printer always […]

niko explores

Yesterday and today, we put Buttercup in the basement for a while, and let Niko roam around the house. He was happy to be out of the bedroom. In the kitchen, he stood at the back door and watched the outdoor cats. He thought DD’s school book bag was full of interesting smells. This evening […]

niko gets comfy

Niko seems to be quite relaxed and easy going. He is still being kept in DD#2’s room while he adjusts. And while Buttercup adjusts to the fact that there is a new kitty around. DD found him in the bathroom sink when she went in to visit this afternoon. He likes to have someone around. […]

there’s a new kitty in the house

We adopted a new kitty today. Niko is a beautiful Birman cat. We’re thrilled his previous family chose us to his new family. We drove 50 minutes north to pick him up. His family provided all his toys, his bed, his kitty house, etc., so he has a lot of familiar items to help him […]

the girls are home :)

Our two older daughters are home for the weekend. A short visit, to be sure, but a good one. When DH made pancakes for breakfast, DD requested a butterfly. Not bad, hmm? 🙂 The girls leave tomorrow morning for home. We’re glad to have a visit, even though it wasn’t long enough. ~~Rhonda

our grandbabies and their daddy

The only problem with our grands is that they live too far away. Cute, aren’t they?? ~~Rhonda 🙂

pirate cat

DD was not feeling well today and stayed home from school. She found several projects that kept her quietly occupied. She read all the comic books in her sister’s room. She played on the computer for a while. And she designed a pirate costume for Buttercup. She began by making a bandanna from red fabric. […]
