I Gave Birth to a Cat

Apparently, my child is not human, she is actually a large kitty. Our good friends, Paul and Stephanie watched her yesterday for us to go to a church meeting, this was what she learned while there, and I guess it is tough work getting through, she is grunting the whole time.

Not only does she wiggle her way through things, she also likes to climb things. She was playing outside last week and I checked on her, as I do every few minutes, and she was half way up the fence. I ran inside and grabbed the camera, but she was on her way back down. Her left foot was up level with where her right foot still is, and she was standing straight up. I was surprised at 14 months she could get up that far. I suppose in another month or two, she could get all the way up.

She also climbs other things, benches, chairs, couches, stools, bathtubs, beds, tables... I'm in for it. Luckly, she has yet to use up any of her 9 lives.

Uh, Oh, 3 Months Late....

Well, not that kind of late. I never posted pictures of Chloe's birthday so here they are. I made her a fondant cake, and it was really fun, like adult yummy play-doh, just a LOT of work. But fun.

Here we are singing "happy birthday" to her! She of course, tired to grab the flame. "Her" cake was the top layer of a 3 layer cake, my 1st ever attempt at such a thing. I know, setting myself a high standard from now on. I actually used round Pyrex storage bowls, as I don't have enough cake pans to make it work.

It is easiest to just take bites out of it, so lady like.

Here, in the end, is a photo of the mess she made... kinda disappointing, Chloe. You should have made a HUGE mess. Oh well, Happy 1st Birthday, 73 days late. Yes, I actually counted.

Chloe has a love aiffair with the park. If we ever drive by one, or run, she screams at me to let her out and play. She is an adrenaline junkie, she loves the going alone down the HUGE big kid slides.

We had snow. Yes, it was in February, (kinda old news) but here are a few pictures. It hadn't snowed like this since 1993, according to locals. Chloe loved it. Good thing too.

We fight every time I open the refrigerator. She usually grabs hot sauce and runs off with it. Sometimes she takes bites out of veggies, and I don't realize it until I go to use them. This time, she is just thirsty.
