Pieces Pictures

My little Reese's pieces is growing up so fast!

Squabbling

Indy and Reese are finally starting to settle in to living together. They play really well together, eat from the same bowls and even share toys. It's not always easy for him, but I think Indy is coming around to the idea of new playmate. Just like any siblings, however, they can get into some squabbles....

zzzz.....enjoying his nap

Play with me!

 

You just had to wake me up....

Now that's enough...

Enough I said!

Now you stay over there.....

Stay......good kitty.

Now let's nap....

Darn it! I said stay!

That tears it!

Reminds me of Michael and me when were growing up...

New Camera Photo Shoot

Before Brandon and I went to Ludington this was weekend, we stopped in at Best Buy and he bought us a new camera. It is a Samsung digital with 14.2 megapixels and a 10X optical zoom...on sale for $140....I LOVE IT! It is so easy to use and it takes awesome pictures! We used it in Ludington (see the previous post) and I was experimenting with it this afternoon....Viola! Reese photo shoot!

Cuddling with Indy's catnip pillow

All stretched out

Tongue out

Rolling around with the pillow

The red fuzzy blanket is purrrfect for stretching out!

Haha....looking like she is giggling!

Tuckered out

Sweet Baby

In Need

A little while back, some people decided to drop their three cats at my grandma's house. Two of the cats were pregnant females and now she is stuck with 10 kittens; However, we are working on finding them homes. They are so sweet and so cute; I'm just hoping we can find people to take them.

New Baby in the House

I'm welcoming a new baby into my life...a baby kitty that is. She is a week and a half old, cute as a button and newly named Reese. I won't be able to actually bring her home for a few weeks, but I am counting down the days. I love her so much already!

For Pete's Sake, Somebody Let the Cat Out of the Bag Already

Indy Update

 He loves new places to hide...this day, a shoe box.

 "What you lookin' at?"

Snuggled up in my covers...

Such a  handsome boy!

Blinded by the Light...

Kitty Crack

When I moved to my new apartment, I brought the dish of catnip that I have for Indy, but in the shuffle, I misplaced/forgot about it. Well, I found it the other night while I was moving some things around. Indy hasn't had any of it in at least a couple months, but I shook the dish once and he came running....apparently he remembers and was jonesing for a hit. He has a tennis ball that he loves to chase around, so rolled his tennis ball in the catnip and threw it into the living room...I'm an enabler....I cracked out my cat.

Chew, Chew, Chew....

Lick, Lick, Lick....

Kick, Kick, Kick....

Chew, Chew, Chew...

Contemplate, Contemplate, Contemplate....

Relax.

He lied there for about 15 minutes, limbs askew, pupils dilated....and then sauntered over to his food bowl; I guess the munchies set in.

Caution: Bad Pun Ahead

"These aren't for me?? They fit puuuur-fectly!"

I'll Buy My Own Dang Flowers.

It has been absolutely GORGEOUS here the last couple weeks....so much sun and so warm! I had the day off on Friday so I did my usual errand running...groceries, bank, etc and then headed home to enjoy the beautiful weather. While out at the store, I happened to pass the floral section. I stood there thinking, "gah, I wish I had some nice man to buy me flowers." I then mentally kicked myself in the butt for being stuck in the 50's and grabbed a bunch of my favorite flowers. I don't need a man to buy me flowers; I love it, I'll be honest, but the point is, I don't NEED it. HA. So there.

After I got home and put my feminism, I mean flowers, in a vase, I called Michael and he came over for dinner.....what is the point of beautiful weather if you don't BBQ? Exactly. There isn't one, so we did.

I made seasoned onion burgers, baked beans and grilled corn....yummmy friggin' yummmy.

Doesn't quite fit in the low carb diet, but I need a cheat every now and again. Speaking of which, I have lost 14 pounds so far...two more pounds and I have hit my goal! YAY! Finally, that new swim suit I bought can be worn with pride!

In other news, I ended my relationship with Chris. I realized we wanted different things and felt differently for each other; I decided it would be best to end it now, before things became more involved and difficult. It was hard, because I hate hurting anyone, especially someone who cares for me, but we ended things on friendly terms and both want to remain friends.

More changes are coming my way, (part of my decision to end things with Chris too), and I can't WAIT. I am soooooo ready for some change....I have 17 days of work left; my last day is April 27th. Class starts May 17th. It's coming up fast! All of my classmates are meeting for the first time on April 16th for our own little "orientation", (pizza and beer at a popular local establishment), and we have an informal orientation the following day where we will meet our mentor and get a tour of the building.

I move into my new apartment on May 1st; it is taking everything I have not to start packing up all my stuff now....it will have to be done soon, but not this soon or I will end up digging through all the boxes. However, I already deep cleaned my apartment so that is one less thing to worry about; I even moved the couches to vacuum. Guess what I found?....a plethora of "cat toys": ALL of my decorative stones from the dish on the coffee table, a pen, a pencil, a dry erase marker, the screw covers from the base of my toilet, the cover to my Ipod Shuffle, a cap to a bottle of hairspray, a hair tie, a couple gum wrappers, a couple dried leaves and two plastic springs (the only actual cat toys in the bunch).

Boy, was dinglefritzer excited when I revealed that little treasure....he couldn't even stay out of the area long enough for me to snap a pic.
