What's New Pussy Cat?

Awww so it's been well over a month since my last post.  Shame on me!  I've been busy raising kids (growing one of them to be exact) and raising animals!  Does my husband count? Thehehe well at least my kids count right?  

A lot has happened this past month. We recently adopted three female guinea pigs, Rosalie, Esme and Alice. (Yes we named them after Twilight characters!)  They weren't being bought because people thought they were "too big" for guinea pigs.  Well really they are fully grown, everyone wants the babies first. :P  Thats ok cause we got them and they have a nice little home!


I turned 28 years young on June 8th!  (What happened to once I turned 25 that I'd be 25 every year after that?)  Angie and Jere made me dinner and dessert the weekend before. 

Then on my birthday, we bbq'ed and Matt got me a nice cake and some great gifts! :)

Friends also came over to help me celebrate!  It was such a great special birthday for me!



We had two lovebird eggs hatch.  One sadly passed away.  But the lone survivor is now 18days old.

I have pulled him from his parents, and he is in a home made incubator and is getting hand fed, in preperation to be tame! :)  Such a sweet little bird.  I guessing he might be albino?

The kids are doing great!  Feisty as ever, just like their mother!  We recently cut Ben's hair!  He looks so grown up!

We are planning on cutting Lilly's hair for the first time this summer!  


I'm doing well with the pregnancy.  Only a little over 2 months to go.  I passed my one hour glucose test, but I need to take iron due to being anemic.  Which is fine.  Baby is kicking like CRAZY!  Especially loves kicking or punching my bladder.  We have another feisty one on our hands I am thinking!  I'm now seeing the doc every two weeks!  Ack....it's almost over...my last one. While I'm getting to the uncomfortable part of pregnancy and wanting it to be over, I don't as well.  It's my last one and I'm trying to enjoy it as much as possible!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all of the Mommies out there!  My husband, bless his heart bought me a spa package for Mother's Day this year!  I'm So excited!  Never been to a spa, so I get three hours of relaxation!  I'll let you know when I'll be going and how it was!

I hope that my Mom knows just how much I love her.  I decided to make a video dedicated to her.  I didn't have nearly as much time as I wanted to perfect it, but none the less here it is.  I hope you enjoy it Mom and anyone else who happens to watch it!


Happy Mother's Day everyone!

Maisy Maisy Maisy!

Hello Family and Friends!

We have a new family member.  Well two actually.  We got a female bird, Cleopatra.

Our last female canary Juliet had many disformaties and we felt blessed to have her for a year.  She passed away last week.  Cleopatra and Romeo seem to be getting a long great!

We also got a choc/black lab pup.  She is three months old and we have named her Maisy.  Here are some photos of her!

She is such a great pup!  Puppy pad trained.  Does have accidents in the house but is learning to tell us when she needs to go. She loves everybody she meets and listens really well. We got lucky with her. Her previous owner had her for four days before they found out they couldn't keep her.  So we got her and she is a great addition to our family!

Last Tuesday was Boo's 5th birthday!  So being the "mother" I am, I googled some birthday cake recipes for dogs.  Found a peanut butter one with pureed cottage cheese and peanut butter frosting.  It was a HUGE hit with Boo, Maisy and their friend Luke!

Here is a short video of them enjoying the cake!

Here are some other photos I have also taken. :)

We've also had our first batch of dove eggs where both eggs have hatched!

A video of Ben high fiving Daddy!
