Kitties Wearing Glasses




By default we have become the owners of an outdoor kitty. Shortly after we started leaving his food out at night we discovered it is Wild Animal Kingdom in our backyard at night. We have seen raccoons and opossums up on the porch. Kitty and the raccoons even eat together. I have befriended Meshack. Her babies Shadrack, Abednigo and Daniel used to visit, too, but they are growing up and are becoming more independent but less friendly. I have recently began patting Meshack and feeding her by hand. Waaaay cool! Zeke does not really know the difference between the cat and the coon since their fur is the same color. One night he looked at the coon and said, "Kitty has on glasses."

Quote of the week

We're in the beginning stages of potty training at our house. Zekers will do absolutely anything to get out of nap time, and this time he threw an 'I gotta go poo poo' out there, knowing full well that I would let him go, hence pushing back nap time a little more. He actually went big potty for the 2nd time ever (I told you he's desperate to get out of naps). After I did some celebratory dancing and singing I asked if he was finished. He answered, "I got a lot of turds in the butt."

The Gimp is Back

Well, I guess it's that time of year again. It's been about 12 months since the last major accident, so he was living on borrowed time; Abraham broke his foot this weekend. He was playing ultimate frisbee and was attempting an ESPN 'nuh-nuh-nuh. nuh-nuh nuh!' play and it all went wrong. So now Momma is taking care of 3 babies for the next few weeks, as he was instructed to keep his weight off of his foot. We went ahead and purchased crutches--odds are he will be needing them again sometime in the future...
