Kids and Kittens

The kids came into my bedroom this morning so excited almost yelling saying that our cat had kittens. They had heard them meowing from the front porch. So, sometime between midnight and 10 am she had them. I'm guessing she had them during the storm last night. My kids are huge animal lovers so an addition really made them happy. The two cats we already have we saved. Oreo, (the black one) was about 2 weeks old when his momma was hit and killed by a car. So, I bottle fed the 3 kittens and he was the only one that made it. Then Cocoa, (the striped one--and new momma) was found in a litter abandaned on a country road near our house. My mom found all of them homes. She was about 3 weeks old and she was bottle fed as well. We didn't get her fixed because we had read she was too young and thought we'd wait til she was old enough.Well, guess what.... she WASN'T too young and now is momma to three adorable kittens. Since we live in the country we will probably keep all three of them. They are soo cute. But, she will be getting fixed just as soon as its safe to do so!! Will post some pics of the little cuties later.

Silly/Funny Memories

I'm all about creating memories with my kids. In this blog, I wanted to share a few of the more silly memories captured.(Top left- Kaitlynn getting purple kool-aid "highlights", Top right- kids "hitting" me with snowballs, bottom left-is what happens when you let a 6 year old perform makeovers.)

First post

I've decided to take up blogging. I do have another site for couponing and money saving deals but I will start that one back up once I am well again. Just thought it would be neat to follow in some friends footsteps and update things on here about Joshua and Kaitlynn and the things we face as parents. I love reading about friends kids and the funny and thoughtful things they do. So, for all of you out there with kids younger then mine, here is where you will find the things to look forward to. lol. :)
