Odd cat

As some of you may know, Camry has been...having issues the last couple of day.  (And what I had to do for those issues shall never again be mentioned!!)

I told DH last night that I think he is upset by our packing & rearranging of "his" room.  We've moved the scrapping tables out so we can start stacking boxes in his room.  DH has another idea.  He insists that Camry has been staring intently at my belly for days now.  In fact, since I got home DH has been mentioning this.  Now, we all know cats tend to stare vacantly for no apparent reason all the time.  So whether he is staring at me b/c he knows something is going on, or just because his head is pointed that way....is up for debate.  Mom found this hysterical and so I thought I'd share the theories. :-)

Baby Gift


These are from the new receptionist DH hired. She's a grandma and was SO happy for DH and I when she heard we were expecting.



This was everthing she got us - gift receipt included :-) *minus the packing tape - that just happened to be in the pic.



Yes mom, a thank you note is on it's way.

My box of goodies!! Tons and tons of beauty/hair stuff from Kt. Yippee!!



Kt is stylish - even in her tape dispensing!! (I got one too.)



You (Kt) are a lying sack of cat food!!! (She told my parents it was "expired" so it was free. Um no. It wasn't expired and they figured it out!



Kt likes the photo book I made her.



Dad likes his ugly dog ornament from the Corning Glass Museum.

Camry has a new treat

He has an insane addiction to....... pulled pork!!!!!!  Seriously!  It's hysterical.  I made it in the crock pot the other day and as soon as DH started shredding it in the crock pot (so the smell was wafting through the house) Camry comes RUNNING into the kitchen.

YOW!  YOW!! MINE!  FEED ME THAT NOWNOWNOW!! YOW YOW YOW!

I gave him a tiny bit expecting the same reaction as the pudding cups - lots of yowling but no actual eating.  SO not the case.  He sniffed it, INHALED it, licked the floor and then sniffed and bit my fingers to get every little drop of flavor.  That night we let him clean our plates when we were done eating.  Clean as soap and water could get them!

Yesterday DH had leftover pulled pork for dinner.  As soon as he starts microwaving it........here comes Camry.

YOW YOW YOW!  That's MINE!!!!!!!!

So Camry got more for dinner last night.  It's hysterical - he LOVES it!!

How to make Mandy cry

Make her stand up quickly - bashing her head on the corner of the handle to the freezer.

I was pulling stuff out of the fridge for burritos tonight.  I yowled and cried so hard DH actually stopped working out and ran over to ck on me.  Still hurts.  Sniffle.

First Snow

This is even worse than Lewiston!  I looked back in my blog - our first snow there was Nov 18th.  Towanda got enough snow to cover the grass, we saw cars covered in snow last night when we went out.  It snowed at the house, but didn't stick.  We are covered in frost this morning though.  They have accumulated snow at the jobsite too.  Blah.  
Went to the library last night and got a bunch of books.  Also got Taco Bell - yay!  :-)  Totally did not get what I ordered, but it was good anyway.  
Hope everyone is having a good Friday!
