Me-ow!


One day when we went to Adventure City, there was surprise waiting at home. It was...CATS!!!
There were two black cats. The totally black one is mine and the one with a little white dot on his chest is Finny's. They came from Celia's house because they had 4 cats but now they have two and we have two. The cats are brothers. They are very playful but sometimes they start wrestling together. Their names are Ryon and Scorpius. Charles and Walter (Celia's oldest boys) picked the names but we liked the names so much that we decided to keep them.
Sometimes the kitties go out to hunt; they catch a lot of skinks. Once they caught a bird but it didn't die. A couple of days after the the day they caught the bird, my kitty tried to catch a skink. When a skink is trying to get away they can make their tail come off! If the tail comes off, the tail wiggles around and the skink can run away! The cat wasn't very interested in the tail wiggling around but we helped the skink get away by picking the cat up. WE were very interested in the tail wiggling around with no skink connected to it!

PS Mom just added the first photo...look closely at the background!

Owen channels ABBA


The other day I was busy doing something when I heard a familiar tune coming from the kids' room....they were singing ABBA's "Super Trouper" but these were their lyrics:
Supla-Fa, Supla-Fa
Likesy, pon-nee miney
Miney like the snow.
Hmmm mmmm, hmmmmm mmmmmm
Feeling like the 'nother one
but I just
Supla-Fa, Supla-fa
Likesy, pon-nee miney...
Here are the lyrics from ABBA -- I think I prefer owen's version, though not after he's repeated it a thousand times.
Tonight the 
super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Smiling having fun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one.
tonight the
super trouper lights are gonna find me....
