Poor Abused Kitty

Hadley was so abused during the two weeks that Freddy was gone he wouldn't let him out of his sight.  According to Hadley he got no love... yes this is one abused kitty...

Fascinating

What exactly has Baby so fascinated you might ask?





It's Hadley going crazy with his toys. Marshall has recently become very interested in watching the cats.





You'll have to excuse the cat hair on the floor. We hadn't vacuumed yet :)

New Toy and Some Firsts

We finally received and put together my glider and ottoman. It was one of those things that I thought we wouldn't need with the baby, not to mention we didn't have anywhere to put it. As I started having some soreness in my ankles, hips and back from rocking Marshall to sleep on my feet, we decided to give the glider a go. We spent Sunday rearraging our bedroom to make a space for it next to Marshall's crib. It now looks like Marshall actually has a little nursery to himself in the corner of our bedroom. It will be nice when we finally have our own house for him to have his own room.

Hadley, of course, felt he needed to try it out for approval.





Does it work, you ask? Well, Marshall and I did take a 3 hour nap in it this afternoon. I think it will make feedings a lot easier than trying to do them on the bed or couch.

Now for some Baby Firsts...

Monday evening, Marshall lifted his head and shoulders up an then rolled from his stomach onto his back. This was after he grabbed is pacifier and held onto it for a few minutes. After he was on his back he tried very hard to get back over on his stomach but it was not in the cards that night.







I've been thinking about putting his exersaucer together to see if he's ready for it since he's been moving his arms and legs a lot lately. That might be a project for this weekend :)

Do.Not.Like.

We had to do our least favorite thing ever this morning. Today was the yearly vet visit for C-Lo, Hadley, and Harley. We are still going to our old vet in Queens since she is familiar with Harley's history with his back legs. Plus their staff is awesome and always remembers our kitties. Unfortunately, when we move further into Jersey we're probably going to have to break down and find another vet. Right now the trip is an hour one way which, if you've ever travelled with cats, is not a fun trip. Hadley actually had an accident in his carrier because he was so nervous. You could tell he was embarrassed because he never has accidents and is usually the one who goes behind everyone else and covers up in the litter boxes.

Oh, and if you're wondering what the piece of purple fluff is on the floor. That belong to a purple furry mouse that Hadley beat the crap out of last night while we were sleeping. There was purple fur all over the living room. We still haven't found where he stashed the tail that was torn off.







While at the vet, Miss C-Lo turned into a major Drama Queen. There's nothing wrong with her here. She's just wrapped up in a towel and acting all pathtic. The doctor hadn't even touched her yet. Of course, her true Calico craziness surfaced when they tried to draw blood.







At least we only have to do this once a year.

Talent

I guess it's a good thing my cat doesn't have thumbs otherwise he'd be making a break for it.
